Now that would be a neat trick. If the cable were advertised for audio, we would call it snake oil.
It's the equipment itself that is designed to not emit interference.

Honest, no snide remark here. Does shielding not work as OP wanted? I stated the cords were inert and noise came from other places. The cords are not great antennas

True the are not great antennas, but the are interference antennas.
Jim Brown, retired Audio Engineering Society interference expert, wrote:
Antenna Action The most fundamental cause of radio interference to other systems is the fact that
the wiring for those systems, both inside and outside the box, are antennas. We may call them
"patch cables" or "speaker cables" or "video cables" or "Ethernet cables" or "AC power cords" or printed circuit traces,
but Mother Nature knows that they are antennas! And Mother Nature always wins the argument.
Don't I know it, our prototypes had dozen chokes in them.
