Data line as well as methods for producing the data line

A data line comprising:

• a line core extending in a longitudinal direction, the line core formed of at least one conductor and an insulation, the at least one conductor surrounded by the insulation;
• and
• a shielding foil that surrounds the insulation,
• wherein the shielding foil is formed of a non-conductive layer with a first conductive layer attached to an outer side of the non-conductive layer and a second conductive layer attached to an inner side of the non-conductive layer, the outer side of the non-conductive layer opposing the inner side of the non-conductive layer,
• wherein the shielding foil surrounds the insulation such that a first free end edge of the shielding foil overlaps a second free end edge of the shielding foil in an overlap region,
• wherein a region of the shielding foil directly adjacent the overlap region is an additional partial region,
• wherein a distal end face of a first free end edge of the first and second conductive layers is electrically conductively connected to an outer side of the first conductive layer provided in the additional partial region by an electrically conductive connection, the distal end face of the first conductive layer extending between the outer side and an inner side of the first conductive layer and the distal end face of the second conductive layer extending between an outer side and an inner side of the second conductive layer,
• wherein the electrically conductive connection is an additional conductive strip attached to the shielding foil so that the additional conductive strip is directly attached to the distal end face of the first and second conductive layers and to the additional partial region, so as to electrically connect the distal end face of the first and second conductive layers with the additional partial region, and
• wherein the additional conductive strip extends over and is directly attached to a portion of the outer side of the first conductive layer at the first free end edge, such that the additional conductive strip is substantially s-shaped in cross-section.
