Audio cables including a conductor spirally wrapped in a non-conductive thread to centrally position the conductor within a channel comprising mostly air include a first conductor having a first diameter, and a non-conductive thread spirally wrapped around the center conductor, the non-conductive thread having a second diameter. A first jacket surrounds the center conductor and thread, having an inner diameter approximately equal to the first diameter plus twice the second diameter. A second conductor surrounds the first jacket and/or the center conductor and thread. In many implementations, the first diameter is less than the second diameter. A radially symmetric filler comprising a plurality of arms may form a corresponding plurality of channels.

A power cable for transmitting electrical power, the cable includes at least two electrical conductors extending mainly along a power transmission axis, a first of the conductors called the external conductor surrounding a second of the conductors called the internal conductor along the axis, at least one insert arranged between the internal conductor and the external conductor, the insert extending over only part of the cable along the axis, the insert introducing a first impedance between the internal conductor and the external conductor with a value different from a second impedance between the internal conductor and the external conductor outside of the part of the cable over which the insert extends.

A coaxial cable connector comprises an inner sleeve comprising a first and second outer flange; metal inner sleeve comprising a second inner ring having a ring portion and plurality of elastic portions and a first inner ring having a second inner flange and plurality of wings; an outer sleeve comprising a fourth inner flange and engaging bump; and a nut comprising a first inner flange and threaded portion adapted to engage with an electronic device. One end of the plurality of elastic portions is connected with the ring portion and the other end comprises a fifth outer flange. One end of the plurality of wings is connected to the second inner flange and the other end to the ring portion. When the outer sleeve moves toward the nut, the engaging bump presses and enables the fifth outer flange to move toward the outer surface of the inner sleeve.

An improved electrical cable design for high-speed, low loss signal transmission. The improved cable design may be a three-conductor cable having a center conductor, a middle conductor and an outer conductor, where each conductor is separated by a dielectric layer. The electrical cable provides an inverted cable design, in which signal transmission occurs within the middle conductor, the center conductor is used as a return or drain line to ground and the outer conductor is used as a shield. The middle conductor of the electrical cable provides a larger surface area for signal conductance than the center conductor, thereby transmitting signals with significantly less loss (e.g., at least 50% less loss).

A coaxial cable connector comprises an inner sleeve comprising a first and second outer flange; metal inner sleeve comprising a second inner ring having a ring portion and plurality of elastic portions and a first inner ring having a second inner flange and plurality of wings; an outer sleeve comprising a fourth inner flange and engaging bump; and a nut comprising a first inner flange and threaded portion adapted to engage with an electronic device. One end of the plurality of elastic portions is connected with the ring portion and the other end comprises a fifth outer flange. One end of the plurality of wings is connected to the second inner flange and the other end to the ring portion. When the outer sleeve moves toward the nut, the engaging bump presses and enables the fifth outer flange to move toward the outer surface of the inner sleeve.

A coaxial cable connector comprises: an inner sleeve having a first outer flange and a first surface; a nut coaxially arranged with the inner sleeve, comprising a first inner flange and a threaded portion, the threaded portion of the nut engages with a threaded surface of a connector of an electronic device; a first inner ring coaxially arranged with the inner sleeve, comprising a ring portion and a plurality of elastic portions, one end of each of the plurality of elastic portions comprising a second outer flange disposed between the ring portion and the first outer flange; and an outer sleeve coaxially arranged with the first inner ring and the inner sleeve, wherein when the outer sleeve moves toward the nut, an engaging bump of the outer sleeve presses the second outer flange to enable the second outer flange to move toward the outer surface of the inner sleeve.

A connector for connecting a coaxial cable to a printed circuit board includes a support portion that receives an end of the coaxial cable within a hollow structure thereof so that an exposed outer conductor of the coaxial cable is connected to an interior surface of a side wall of the hollow structure and so that the coaxial cable extends within the support portion perpendicular to the printed circuit board. The connector further includes an engagement portion that is connected to the support portion and configured to fix the connector to a first side of the printed circuit board, where the engagement portion is mounted above a via hole in the printed circuit board.
