Aperiodically overlapping spiral-wrapped cable shield system

An Information Handling System (IHS), comprising:

• a processing system;
• a memory system that is coupled to the processing system and that includes instructions that, when executed by the processing system, cause the processing system to provide a signal transmission engine that is configured to generate signals;
• and
• a cable that is coupled to the processing system and that is configured to transmit the signals, wherein the cable includes:
• a cable shield that is spirally wrapped with a varying wrap pitch that provides a plurality of overlapping cable shield portions with varying overlap areas, wherein the varying overlap areas of the plurality of overlapping cable shield portions create a plurality of varying LC circuits that are configured to generate a resonance that does not exceed a signal integrity resonance threshold for the signals.

A method for transmitting a signal using a cable having an aperiodically overlapping spiral-wrapped cable shield, comprising:

• receiving signals at a cable that includes a cable shield that is spirally wrapped with a varying wrap pitch that provides a plurality of overlapping cable shield portions with varying overlap areas;
• transmitting, via at least one cable component in the cable, the signals;
• and
• generating, by a plurality of varying LC circuits created by the varying overlap areas of the plurality of overlapping cable shield portions in response to the transmission of the signals via, a resonance that does not exceed a signal integrity resonance threshold for the signals.
