1. An electric cable for electrically connecting a glucose monitor to a glucose sensor set, the glucose monitor having a glucose monitor conductive contact, the glucose sensor set having a sensor set cable fitting and a sensor set conductive contact, the electric cable comprising:

  • a cable member comprising;

    at least one insulated conductor;

    a conductive shielding layer disposed around the at least one insulated conductor; and

    an insulating layer disposed around the conductive shielding layer;

    a first connector comprising;

    a first connector housing having a first bore, the first bore adapted to receive the sensor set cable fitting; and

    a first conductive contact disposed within the first bore, the first conductive contact being electrically coupled to the at least one insulated conductor, the first conductive contact further being adapted to be removably electrically coupled to the sensor set conductive contact; and

    a second connector comprising;

    a second connector housing having a second bore, the second connector housing adapted to releasably couple the second connector with the glucose monitor; and

    a second conductive contact disposed within the second bore, the second conductive contact being electrically coupled to the at least one insulated conductor, the second conductive contact further being adapted to be removably electrically coupled to the glucose monitor conductive contact.
