The present invention provides a method for designing USB floating with low electromagnetic interference, especially in a scenario in which a distance between a pin and a metal housing of a USB interface of a terminal device is increasingly small. A first plug and a second plug are connected by using a connection cable having a first shield layer and a second shield layer. The first shield layer and the second shield layer overlap and there is no electrical connection between the first shield layer and the second shield layer. One end of the first shield layer is connected to a metal housing of the first plug, and the other end is suspended. One end of the second shield layer is connected to a metal housing of the second plug, and the other end is suspended. In addition, a metal housing of a first socket and a metal housing of a second socket may be connected to a housing of the terminal device or a housing of an adapter by using a capacitive component, thereby helping the terminal device reduce a short circuit risk and radiation.

The communication cable includes a two-core communication line including two insulated electric wires each having a conductor and an insulator covering the conductor, a drain wire and a metal foil. The two-core communication line and the drain wire are collectively covered with the metal foil. The two insulated electric wires are twisted together. The insulator has a foaming ratio being equal to or smaller than 45%. The insulator may have the foaming ratio being equal to or greater than 28%. A wire harness may include the communication cable.

A data cable has a cable core having electrical conductors arranged in twisted pairs, an isolation wrap encompassing the cable core, and a jacket encompassing the cable core and the isolation wrap. The isolation wrap includes a magnetic material that attenuates electrical signals that couple to the isolation wrap. Another data cable has electrical conductors arranged in twisted pairs, a pair shielding layer encompassing a twisted pair of the twisted pairs, and a jacket encompassing the twisted pairs and the pair shielding layer. The pair shielding layer includes a magnetic material that attenuates electrical signals that couple to the pair shielding layer.

The present invention relates to a telecommunication cable (100) comprising a plurality of twisted pairs (102) stranded helically around a cable axis, at least two tapes (104, 106) helically wrapped around the plurality of twisted pairs (102) such that that the at least two tapes (104, 106) overlap over the plurality of twisted pair (102), and a sheath (114) encapsulating the at least two tapes (104, 106) wrapped around the plurality of twisted pair (102). In particular, a ratio of first lay length of a first specific twisted pair to second lay length of a second specific twisted pair is in the range of 0.8 to 1.2. Furthermore, a ratio of first lay length of a first specific twisted pair to second lay length of a second specific twisted pair is in the range of 0.5 to 1.5.

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.

Cable foil tape having random or pseudo-random patterns or long pattern lengths of discontinuous metallic shapes and a method for manufacturing such patterned foil tape are provided. In some embodiments, a laser ablation system is used to selectively remove regions or paths in a metallic layer of a foil tape to produce random distributions of randomized shapes, or pseudo-random patterns or long pattern lengths of discontinuous shapes in the metal layer. In some embodiments, the foil tape is double-sided, having a metallic layer on each side of the foil tape, and the laser ablation system is capable of ablating nonconductive pathways into the metallic layer on both sides of the foil tape.

Disclosed is an armored cable assembly including a core having a notched assembly tape about a plurality of conductors. A metal sheath surrounds the core.
