Which outcome occurs when a cable's insulation degrades increasing capacitance?

💡 Explanation

Increased capacitance reduces the cable's impedance because impedance is inversely proportional to the reactive capacitive element called capacitive reactance. Therefore, the characteristic impedance will decrease rather than EMI reduction or increased reflections from mismatched impedances.
