A zero-field cooled superconducting shield was previously proposed to realize a high-field (at least 3 T) septum magnet for the Future Circular Collider proton-proton ring. In this paper, we present the conceptual design of a complete septum magnet prototype including a shield with an optimized shape and a simple and cost-effective superconducting magnet using the canted cosine theta concept. 2D optimization of the coil geometry and a realistic 2D simulation of the fieldmap and field homogeneity are presented taking into account the nonlinear penetration of the magnetic field into the shield.
