Believe it or not... its actually a mil spec item.  I did some searching and
it is mil-c-85485/5 which you can see at:
http://assistdocs.com/search/document_details.cfm?ident_number=34825&StartRo
w=54901&PaginatorPageNumber=1099&status_all=ON&search_method=BASIC

It has a 3 layer insulation with some kind of absorber in the middle layer,
they don't say in the spec but I would assume its probably some kind of
resistive material.  They also say something about it only being effective
when used as a component in a shielded cable, so its probably not what you
want to run out and buy a bunch of to play around with.
