For protection against capacitive (electric field) coupling where shield coverage is more important than low DC resistance.

When possible sources of interference include TV signals, crosstalk from other circuits, radio transmitters, fluorescent lights or computing equipment.

For MATV, CATV, video, networking, computer I/O cables in office, industrial or commercial environments where ambient EMI levels are low.

For superior performance against diffusion coupling, where low DC resistance is important, and to a lesser extent, capacitive and inductive coupling.

When possible sources of interference exhibit low impedance characteristics, such as motor control circuits and switches which operate inductive loads.

For computer to terminal interconnect for process, instrumentation or control applications.

For functional shielding against diffusion and capacitive coupling at audio frequencies only.

When possible sources of interference are power lines and fluorescent lights.

For applications when flexibility and flex life are major concerns, such as microphone and audio cables and retractile cords.

For shielding against high frequency radiated emissions coupling and ESD. Combines the low resistance of braid and 100% coverage of foil shields.

When possible sources of interference include radio transmitters, TV stations, printed circuit boards, back planes, motor control circuits and computing equipment.

For Video, CATV, MATV, networking, computer I/O cables and computeraided manufacturing applications.
