A harness assembly may include a cable having a cable shielding around at least a portion of a plurality of wires, a connector with an integrated backshell arranged at an angle with respect to the cable, an external braid disposed around at least a portion of the backshell and the cable, and an overbraid around at least a portion of the external braid, the overbraid having two layers.

The present disclosure relates to a power cable and an intermediate connection structure, for connection thereof, which is capable of preventing the concentration of stress on a soldered part, which is configured to join a metal sheath of the power cable and a metal sheath restoration layer of the intermediate connection structure while ensuring airtight or watertight sealing therebetween, preventing deformation of or damage to the soldered part due to stress applied thereto, and minimizing thermal history in the power cable during the formation of the soldered part.

A polymer-sheathed multi-filamentary strand for use in braided covers for wiring harnesses intended for use in challenging embodiments comprises a core of glass filaments wrapped in an aramid yarn, and sheathed in a siloxane-modified polyetherimide polymer. Shielding against electromagnetic interference may also be provided.

A differential signal transmission cable includes a conductor, a first dielectric covering the conductor, an outer conductor covering the first dielectric, a second dielectric covering the outer conductor and including a material with a higher transmission loss than the first dielectric, and a shield covering the second dielectric. A multi-core differential signal transmission cable includes a plurality of wires each including a conductor, a first dielectric covering the conductor and an outer conductor covering the first dielectric, a second dielectric covering all the plurality of wires and including a material with a higher transmission loss than the first dielectric, and a shield covering the second dielectric.

A novel data cable achieves good transmission quality in automotive Internet applications. The data cable has a transmission core with only a single stranded conductor pair or four conductors stranded together to form a quad. The transmission core is surrounded by a jacket having a high air content. The jacket may be a foamed sheath, or alternatively at least one spacer element that defines an annular sheath space with air gaps around the transmission core.

Adhesive compositions are described that significantly improve the adhesion of polymer overmold compositions to metal substrates in polymer-metal junctions. The adhesive compositions include one or more poly(aryl ether) polymers, where each of the poly(aryl ether) polymers is, independently, a poly(aryl ether sulfone) polymer or a poly(aryl ether ketone) polymer. The overmold composition includes at least one poly(aryl ether ketone) polymer. Polymer-Metal junctions can be formed by, for example, dip-coating, spin-coating, extruding, or injection molding the adhesive composition and/or the overmold composition onto the metal substrate. Desirable applications settings for the polymer-metal junctions described include, but are not limited to electrical wiring.
