Won't it be easier to isolate and disconnect (cap off with electrical or teflon insulation tape) one or two 3-pair braids on both ends?Adi
Electrically unconnected braids within a braided bundle give rise to ghost signals and tend to make oscillations worse, it is like having an unconencted secondary on a tightly wound transformer. The braided cables wires are in very close and intimate contact, and alonjg the length, they will couple electrostatically. The capacitance does not go down that much, and the delayed energy stroage goes up.Jon Risch
