I think it is "Conquest" that makes the USA-1 cable, not "Concord" ?  
See here:

I think you are confusing this with the Gotham cable that Eldhart was 
referring to - the versions with colored jackets are discontinued but 
black is still available.

A drain wire normally implies a foil shield, which normally implies a 
not particularly flexible cable.  A cable with a spiral shield should 
be almost as easy to terminate as cable with a drain wire - cable with 
braided shields are obviously a little more work because you have to 
unbraid them.  In general - Canare and Mogami both make nice flexible 
cables and are usually available in various colors.  Canare cables 
tend to use a braided shield where Mogami uses a spiral shield.
