An electrical conduction path includes a main cable that has a multi-core cable obtained by enveloping a plurality of electric wires together with a sheath, and a plurality of branch cables obtained by dividing the electric wires of the multi-core cable into a plurality of parts, wherein connection portions are provided, in each of which an electric wire of the multi-core cable and an electric wire of a branch cable are electrically connected to each other. According to this configuration, it is possible to reduce the length of the expensive multi-core cable compared to a case where the electric wires of a multi-core cable are used over the entire length of a cable including the branch cables, thus achieving cost reduction.

The present invention relates to a communication cable capable of satisfying the communication cable standard of Cat. 6A or higher by minimizing interference between adjacent cables by a method of changing a structure of an external jacket without applying a metal shielding layer to cover each pair of wires or a whole cable core.

An M-jacket for use in a telecommunications cable including a jacket body. The jacket body extends along a longitudinal axis of the telecommunications cable. The longitudinal axis passes through a geometrical center of the telecommunications cable. The jacket body includes a first surface. The first surface surrounds a core region of the telecommunications cable. The first surface defines a plurality of first grooves extending radially outwardly from the longitudinal axis of the telecommunications cable and a plurality of second grooves extending radially outwardly from the longitudinal axis of the telecommunications cable. The plurality of second grooves is disposed at an interstitial position between the plurality of first grooves. In addition, the jacket body includes a second surface. The second surface extends along the longitudinal axis of the telecommunications cable and disposed in a spaced relation to the first surface.

A cable is provided, configured for tandem communication and power transmission. The cable has a plurality of twisted pair conductors and a jacket surrounding said twisted pair conductors. The jacket includes a plurality of either ridges, valleys or both, disposed substantially perpendicular to the longitudinal axis of the cable, the ridges and/or valleys are dimensioned and spaced apart in a manner sufficient to create an air passage when the cable is arranged adjacent to and abutting other cables.

Described are cables for connecting components of computing systems. The cables improve automation and resulting performance of high frequency and/or high speed signal transmissions by providing reliable transmission paths between hardware components. An example cable includes parallel conductors and a dielectric core that secures the parallel conductors along the length using parallel channels in opposite sides of the dielectric core. An alignment structure is also formed in the dielectric core, which has a shape along the length of the cable. A cable jacket surrounds the parallel conductors and the dielectric core. The cable jacket is contoured to follow the shape of the alignment structure. The dielectric core can be formed to maintain consistent separation between the parallel channels along the length of the cable to match impedance of the parallel conductors along the length of the cable, whether the cable lays flat or bends around corners.

Various cables for cable deployed electric submersible pumping systems and methods of manufacturing such cables are provided. The cable includes a power cable core and coiled tubing formed around the power cable core. The power cable core includes one or more conductors, insulation surrounding each conductor, and an elastomeric jacket extruded around the insulated conductors. Various mechanisms, systems, and methods are described to anchor the power cable core in the coiled tubing and to transfer weight from the power cable core to the coiled tubing.

The present disclosure provides an M-jacket for use in a telecommunications cable. The M-jacket includes a jacket body. The jacket body extends along a longitudinal axis of the telecommunications cable. The longitudinal axis passes through a geometrical center of the telecommunications cable. The jacket body includes a first surface. The first surface surrounds a core region of the telecommunications cable. The first surface defines a plurality of first grooves extending radially outwardly from the longitudinal axis of the telecommunications cable and a plurality of second grooves extending radially outwardly from the longitudinal axis of the telecommunications cable. The plurality of second grooves is disposed at an interstitial position between the plurality of first grooves. In addition, the jacket body includes a second surface. The second surface extends along the longitudinal axis of the telecommunications cable and disposed in a spaced relation to the first surface.

A particular method includes using a helical forming tool to make helical grooves on an insulating jacket of a conductive length, such as a wire. A gear may rotate a forming mechanism, such as a protrusion, around the insulating jacket to form the helical grooves. The helical grooves are formed to limit bending of the insulated wire.

A communications cable is described. The communications cable can include a cable jacket, a separator structure that defines one or more channels for receiving at least one communications medium, and an insulator that surrounds the communications medium. The cable jacket can include one or more corrugations on at least one of its interior or exterior surfaces. The separator can also include one or more grooves on at least a portion of its surface. The insulator can also include one or more indentations on at least one of its interior or exterior surfaces. The corrugations, grooves, and indentations can extend along the longitudinal length of the cable and define one or more air channels for forwarding and circulating air through or on the surface the cable. The circulation of air in the cable can reduce the temperature of the cable and increase the quality of the signal transmitted through the cable.
