USA seller of "twin screened audio cable" or "two core screened cable?"

May 17, 2014 12:42 AM

I need basically this. I'd rather order it from closer to home. My searches for this type of cable in the US haven't turned up anything, and I don't know enough about electronics to figure out what other names it might go by. I think it's a common type of cable so there must be something I'm missing. Thanks!

Best answer: Here in the US, it's called "shielded" rather than "screened" cable. Example.

Best answer: Yep, I'd call that "shielded," and the individual wires are "conductors."

Best answer: So "2 conductor shielded" is the cable you're looking for.

Also commonly known as "microphone" cable.
