The question posed, if I read it correctly, involves the application of a
square wave (assuming 50% duty cycle) through a lossy line.
In this case, the HF loss will not cause jitter, because the spectrum of the
input signal vs. time is constant. The HF loss effects each transition
equally. If the duty cycle of the waveform is changing, as in a data signal,
then the spectrum as a function of time is not constant and the HF loss will
effect some edges more than others, causing jitter.
The HF loss on a square wave will impact the edge rate at the receiver, opening
the door for noise to shift the threshold crossing time, which also produces
jitter.
If the discussion is limited to the line with the square wave input, no jitter
is introduced.
