Abstract

A woven shielded cable in which a plurality of conductor wires and a plurality of spacer cords are alternately arranged to extend longitudinally of the cable. A woven outer cover is formed from metalized warp and weft yarns, to encapsulate the conductor and spacer cords to form a shield therefor. A set of binder yarns weave with the weft yarns on opposite side of the conductor wires and spacer cords to positively lock the warp yarns, the spacer cords and the conductor wires in position relative to each other. The cable may be formed with a hinge arranged longitudinally along an intermediate point. In this instance the warp yarns are divided into two groups which weave on opposed sides of the hinge and on opposite surfaces of the opposite sides. The conductor wires are stacked and shielded from each other when the cable is folded along the hinge.
