Abstract

Abstract A high frequency attenuation cable which includes: a conductor; a high frequency absorption medium surrounding the conductor for attenuating high frequency energy through the cable; dielectric surrounding the absorption medium; electrical shielding surrounding the dielectric confining the high frequency energy to the absorption medium; and electrically conductive outer jacketing surrounding the shielding preventing the shielding from becoming a high frequency transmission line.
