I'm not even entirely sure how the English term is any idiomatic (can someone enlighten me on this?), but the German translation definitely is not, it's just abgeschirmt + Kabel -- Liliana • 12:50, 16 February 2016 (UTC)
- RE screened cable, nothing currently at screen or screened covers this so... I guess it stays until there is something. Renard Migrant (talk) 13:14, 16 February 2016 (UTC)
- Nothing wrong with the translation, and screened cable could do with a translations section. I revised the heading so it links to abgeschirmt. Funnily enough I have just been looking at the Norwegian term. Donnanz (talk) 13:31, 16 February 2016 (UTC)
- Is it the same as coax? SemperBlotto (talk) 14:45, 16 February 2016 (UTC)
- No, although coaxial cable tends to be self-shielding (since one of the conductors runs around the outside). You can also get other types of cable which aren't coaxial but which include a shield around the outside (these are required for network cables in sensitive installations where people could read the electrical fields leaking out, for instance).

- There are other German terms for that, listed under coaxial cable (Koaxkabel, Koaxialkabel). Donnanz (talk) 14:59, 16 February 2016 (UTC)
- I think we should keep this as a useful technical term. Donnanz (talk) 10:10, 19 February 2016 (UTC)
- If we can have screened cable and shielded cable there shouldn't be a problem with abgeschirmtes Kabel, right? --Hekaheka (talk) 17:52, 19 February 2016 (UTC)
- RFD kept. —Μετάknowledgediscuss/deeds 00:36, 10 April 2016 (UTC)
