An electrical ribbon cable includes an insulated conductor extending along a longitudinal axis of the cable. The cable also includes a shielding film that carries the insulated conductor. The shielding film has a variable thickness defining a thickened rib portion and a thinned connecting portion, these portions being electrically conductive and extending along the longitudinal axis. The insulated conductor is disposed proximate the rib portion. The insulated conductor may be one of multiple insulated conductors that are organized into multiple conductor sets including at least a first and second conductor set, each conductor set including one or more of the insulated conductors, and the rib portion may be disposed between the first and second conductor sets.

A cable includes a first metal conductor, a first insulator, a second metal conductor and a second insulator. The first insulator includes a first arc-shaped surface. The second insulator includes a second arc-shaped surface. A distance between a central axis of the first metal conductor and a central axis of the second metal conductor is S. The first insulator and/or the second insulator are formed with a deformation surface at a position where the first insulator and the second insulator are in contact with each other. An outer diameter of a circle where the first arc-shaped surface is located and/or an outer diameter of a circle where the second arc-shaped surface is located is D, where S/D≤0.99. The cable of the present disclosure can achieve low mode conversion and improve high frequency characteristics.

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.

A cable such as a server cable may have a tapered termination portion that when connected to other information handling system components reduces the loss of signal between the cable and the information handling system component. A method of making a cable with a tapered termination portion comprising heating a wire having an end and a body portion, the body portion having a first diameter; pulling the end relative to the body portion, for example with a clamp coupled to the end under tension, to obtain a location between the end and the body portion having a second diameter smaller than the first diameter; and cutting the wire at the location.

A twin-axial cable is provided for high-speed data communication. The twin-axial cable includes a first conductor surrounded by a first portion of an incompressible insulating material and a second conductor surrounded by a second portion of the incompressible insulating material. The first and second conductors are arranged in line in a first axis at a distance apart. A profile of the first and second portions is an elongated profile along a second axis perpendicular to the first axis, such that a first height of the profile is greater than the distance.

This invention relates to the technical field of cables and, in particular, to an automatic leakage detection wire, which comprises an insulating protective layer, a plurality of core wires, a detection wire and an additional signal wire, and the detection wire is electrically connected with the additional signal wire.

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.
