A twisted-pair cable and methods are disclosed. The twisted-pair cable comprises a first layer comprising a first non-conductive. A second layer is coupled to the first layer, and comprises a printed circuit patterned with first diagonal conductor segments. A third layer is coupled to the second layer, and comprises a non-conductive strip. A fourth layer is coupled to the third layer, and comprises a printed circuit patterned with second diagonal conductor segments. The first diagonal conductor segments and the second diagonal conductor segments are coupled at respective segment ends such that at least two wires are formed around the non-conductive strip. A fifth layer is coupled to the fourth layer, and comprises a second non-conductive.
