coaxial cables
Shielded signal wires
Coaxial cables are electrical cables with a central conductor surrounded by insulation, a metallic shield, and an outer jacket—all sharing the same axis, hence "coaxial." They carry radio frequency signals with minimal interference, connecting televisions to cable boxes, antennas to receivers, and networking equipment.
The technician ran coaxial cable through the wall.
