Abstract :
COMMUNICATIONS CABLES are frequently subject to interference from external alternating electric and magnetic fields. The combined effects of these fields induces in the conductors of communications circuits voltages which tend to balance out, but often leave a residual large enough to interfere with the signal being transmitted. In such cases, it usually becomes necessary to surround the conductors with a conducting shield to reduce interference.
