How does the ferrite cylinder thing on certain cables reduce data noise?

Watching an LGR video and he mentioned it. I always assumed they were just some kind of tension relief or a splicing point for repairs or something, literally never knew they had a more technical purpose.

As the electrons’ fields move past the ferrite, the iron repels the magnetic force – like a strong wind will slow you down walking in to it.

It works a treat on sheilded cables, but ideally you want to put many loops through a ferrite.
