What is the part of some USB cables around halfway where the cable appears to wrap around it

It's probably a ferrite core. This is really just a magnet that "shaves off" electro magnetic interference (EMI) or noise that runs along the cable.
You can probably learn more about them from Fair-Rite, one of the company that produces them. I've attached a link below. Note that their site isn't the best looking (it's pretty ugly), but the company is good to work with and the ferrites they produce are quality.

I don't understand I'm sorry.
I've always found Maplin to be helpful with cables, maybe take the cable in and ask them?

It's a ferrite core to reduce emi radiation and electrical noise.
