Sixteen of the electrical signal conductors 70 carry electrical measurement signals from the probes 65 attached to the termination board 20. Five of the electrical signal conductors 70 carry electrical control signals to the probes 65. The sixteen electrical signal conductors carrying measurement signals need to be shielded from electromagnetic fields outside the electrical signal cable 10 and from electromagnetic fields generated from the electrical control signals.

- a plurality of individual signal conductors 70, an upper insulator 80a located above the plurality of individual signal conductors 70, and a lower insulator 80b located below the plurality of individual signal conductors 70 as well as a shielding strip 90 were communally passed between two contra-rotating pressure rollers 110a and 110b at a lamination temperature sufficient to achieve bonding between the lower insulator 80b and the upper insulator 80a, e.g. between 327°C and 410 °C.
