A fire resistant corrugated coaxial cable is described that employs a high-temperature, insulating alkaline earth silicate (AES) wool dielectric. The AES wool dielectric is devoid of water as a constituent. The AES wool may be survivable under conditions of high heat, such as temperatures specified by common fire test standards (e.g., 1850? F./1010? C. for two hours). The cable is configured to maintain a relatively coaxial relation between a center conductor and an outer conductor even under aforementioned fire tests. A layer of ceramifiable silicone rubber or refractory fiber wrap can surround the outer conductor and continues to insulate it from the outside if a low-smoke zero-halogen (LSZH) jacket burns away.

A filter cable, which solves the problem that devices which can better cope with various problems in complex electromagnetic environment and have simple and reasonable structural design are lacking in the related art. The filter cable comprises a core wire; the core wire comprises an insulating substrate and a first conductor layer surrounding the insulating substrate; the first conductor layer has a first etching pattern; the first etching pattern is distributed along the axial direction of the filter cable; and the first etching pattern is used to make the filter cable equivalent to a first filter circuit to realize the filtering function.

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.

A data communications cable may communicatively coupled two components associated with an information handling system. For example, the data communications cable may include: a differential pair of conductors; a first dielectric material, associated with a first relative permittivity, surrounding the differential pair of conductors; and a second dielectric material, associated with a second relative permittivity, surrounding the first dielectric material. For instance, the first relative permittivity may be greater than the second relative permittivity, and a distance between the differential pair of conductors may vary plus or minus an amount with a length of the data communications cable.

Methods and systems are provided for designing, implementing, and/or using communication cables comprising a leaky feeder structure, which may be configurable for homogeneous distribution of data signals. An example communication cable may comprise a core conductor, an insulation shield surrounding the core conductor, an outer conductor around the insulation shield and having one or more apertures arranged along its length, and a jacket at least partly covering the outer conductor. The communication cable may also comprise an illumination arrangement which may be arranged at least along sections of the length of the cable. The illumination arrangement may comprise a plurality of light emitting units.

A communication cable 1 is provided with a conductor 2, an insulation layer 3 containing an organic polymer and covering an outer periphery of the conductor 2, a metal foil 5 for covering an outer periphery of the insulation layer 3, and a magnetic sheath layer 7 containing an organic polymer and a powdered magnetic material and covering an outer periphery of the metal foil 5. A tensile modulus of elasticity of the magnetic sheath layer 7 is lower than that of the insulation layer 3. Assuming that an organic polymer having a melting point of 100 C. or lower is a low melting point polymer and a mass ratio of the low melting point polymer to organic polymer components constituting each layer is a low melting point component ratio, the low melting point component ratio is larger in the magnetic sheath layer 7 than in the insulation layer 3.

An electrical cable includes a conductor assembly having a first conductor, a second conductor and an insulator surrounding the first conductor and the second conductor. The insulator has an outer surface. The conductor assembly extends along a longitudinal axis for a length of the electrical cable. The first conductor has a first core and a first conductive layer on the first core. The second conductor has a second core and a second conductive layer on the second core. The first and second cores are dielectric. The electrical cable includes a cable shield around the conductor assembly engaging the outer surface of the insulator and providing electrical shielding for the first and second conductors. The cable shield extends along the longitudinal axis.

A coaxial cable and method of construction thereof are provided. The coaxial cable includes an elongate central conductive member; a dielectric insulative layer encasing the central conductive member; an outer protective sheath, and a braided EMI shield layer including hybrid yarn sandwiched between the dielectric insulative layer and the outer protective sheath. The hybrid yarn includes an elongate nonconductive filament and an elongate continuous conductive wire filament. The wire filament is interlaced in electrical communication with itself or other wire filaments along a length of the EMI shield layer to provide protection to the central conductive member against at least one of EMI, RFI or ESD. The method includes providing a central conductive member; forming a dielectric insulative layer surrounding the central conductive member; braiding an EMI shield layer including hybrid yarn about the insulative layer, and forming an outer protective sheath about the braided EMI shield layer.

A shielded electrical cable includes a conductor set and two generally parallel shielding films disposed around the conductor set. The conductor set includes one or more substantially parallel longitudinal insulated conductors. The shielding films include a parallel portion wherein the shielding films are substantially parallel. The parallel portion is configured to electrically isolate the conductor set.

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.
