Abstract
A shielded electric cable assembly comprises a shielded electric cable and a shield terminal. The shield terminal comprises an inner ferrule and an outer ferrule. The inner ferrule is disposed between an inner insulation jacket of shielded electric cable and an exposed end portion of a conductive layer surrounding the inner insulation jacket. The outer ferrule is crimped about the exposed end portion of the woven metal shield to clamp exposed end portion of the conductive layer between the inner ferrule and the outer ferrule. The material of the outer ferrule is harder than the material of the inner ferrule so that crimped outer ferrule interlocks with the inner ferrule in the longitudinal direction.
