An apparatus for minimizing degradation of fidelity of a signal in a transmission line intended for carrying signals of wavelengths greater than the length of said transmission line and wherein the signals are of frequencies over several octaves, wherein a structure of ferromagnetic material is employed encircling a transmission line and the ferromagnetic material, preferably a toroid, serves as core to a transformer with a secondary having a termination in a substantially short circuited load whereby ringing signals in the transmission line are dissipated in the secondary circuit. Therefore, the invention causes the frequency response of a cable to be umimpaired for the desired signal, and it simultaneously and selectively couples the undesired reflection currents into a secondary circuit where they are dissipated.
