CABLE ASSEMBLY FOR COMMUNICATING SIGNALS OVER MULTIPLE CONDUCTORS

摘要

A cable assembly includes elongated conductors, primary dielectric layers, a secondary dielectric layer, a conductive shield layer and a drain wire. The conductors communicate a signal. The primary dielectric layer is circumferentially disposed around each of the conductors. The secondary dielectric layer surrounds the primary dielectric layers. The conductive shield layer is disposed around the secondary dielectric layer. The drain wire is provided along an outer surface of the conductive shield layer and is electrically coupled with the conductive shield layer. The conductive shield layer communicates electromagnetic interference to an electric ground reference via the drain wire.
