1. A cable comprising:

  • a first electrically conducting wire with a first circumference and a first length;

    a first dielectric material surrounding the first circumference for a portion of the first length to isolate the first electrically conducting wire;

    a second electrically conducting wire with a second circumference and a second length; and

    a second dielectric material surrounding the second circumference for a portion of the second length to isolate the second electrically conducting wire,wherein a signal propagation skew between the first electrically conducting wire and the second electrically conducting wire is detected, wherein signal travels faster over the first electrically conducting wire than the second electrically conducting wire, and a second dielectric constant of the second electrically conducting wire is changed to mitigate the signal propagation skew, wherein the second dielectric constant of the second electrically conducting wire is changed by removing a portion of the second dielectric material farthest from the first electrically conducting wire.
