A cable includes one or more conductor sets, one or more dielectric unitary blocks or reservoirs, first and second conductive shielding films disposed on opposite first and second sides of the conductor sets and the dielectric blocks or reservoirs, and an adhesive layer. The shielding films include cover portions and pinched portions arranged such that, in cross-section, the cover portions of the shielding films in combination substantially surround each conductor set and each unitary block or reservoir, and the pinched portions of the shielding films in combination form pinched portions of the cable on each side of the conductor set and on at least one side of the unitary block or the reservoir. The adhesive layer bonds the first shielding film to the second shielding film in the pinched portions of the cable.

A multi-functional composite system generally comprises a core, a plurality of structural composite fiber layers, a matrix material, a connector configured to interface with one or more electrical devices and a composite conductor assembly, the composite conductor assembly having one or more conductors disposed between two or more insulating layers.

A shielded electrical cable includes conductor sets extending along a length of the cable and spaced apart from each other along a width of the cable. First and second shielding films are disposed on opposite sides of the cable and include cover portions and pinched portions arranged such that, in transverse cross section, the cover portions of the films in combination substantially surround each conductor set. An adhesive layer bonds the shielding films together in the pinched portions of the cable. A transverse bending of the cable at a cable location of no more than 180 degrees over an inner radius of at most 2 mm causes a cable impedance of the selected insulated conductor proximate the cable location to vary by no more than 2 percent from an initial cable impedance measured at the cable location in an unbent configuration.

Each of the plurality of transmission line units includes one or more signal lines, a first shield layer, a first ground conductor, and a second shield layer. Each of the signal lines includes a signal conductor to transmit a data signal or a power, and a first insulating jacket enclosing the signal conductor. The first shield layer surrounds the signal line and is connected to the first insulating jacket of each of the signal lines. The first ground conductor transmits a ground voltage. The second shield layer surrounds and is connected to the first ground conductor and the first shield layer. The second insulating jacket encloses the second shield layer of the plurality of transmission line units.

A shielded electrical ribbon cable includes adjacent first and second longitudinal conductor sets where each conductor set includes two or more insulated conductors. The first conductor set also includes a ground conductor that generally lies in the plane of the insulated conductors of the first conductor set. At least 90% of the periphery of each conductor set is encompassed by a shielding film. First and second non-conductive polymeric films are disposed on opposite sides of the cable and form cover portions substantially surrounding each conductor set, and pinched portions on each side of each conductor set. When the cable is laid flat, the distance between the center of the ground conductor of the first conductor set and the center of the nearest insulated conductor of the second conductor set is ?1, the center-to-center spacing of the insulated conductors of the second conductor set is ?2, and ?1/?2 is greater than 0.7.

The present invention provides a high frequency transmission cable which includes at least one conductor, an insulating layer, a polyolefin resin layer, and a shielding layer. The at least one conductor is covered with the insulating layer. The polyolefin resin layer is coated on an external surface of the insulating layer by a low-k dielectric adhesive layer, and the shielding layer is coated on an external surface of the polyolefin resin layer by another low-k dielectric adhesive layer, wherein the low-k dielectric adhesive layers have a dielectric constant (Dk) less than 3 and a dissipation factor (Df) less than 0.01. Whereby, the high frequency transmission cable can provide high frequency data transmission quality, and can meet the requirement of miniaturization.

A shielded electrical cable includes one or more conductor sets extending along a length of the cable and being spaced apart from each other along a width of the cable. Each conductor set has one or more conductors having a size no greater than 24 AWG and each conductor set has an insertion loss of less than about ?20 dB/meter over a frequency range of 0 to 20 GHz.
