A cover for a cable harness including: (i) a first layer comprising a first color; (ii) a second layer layered adjacent to the first layer, the second layer comprising a second color that is different than the first color; and (iii) an adhesive layer adhered to the first layer, at least a portion of the adhesive is not covered by the second layer. The first color can black, while the second color is white. The second layer comprises fibers that can be substantially free of dye. At least one of the first layer and the second layer can be polyethylene terephthalate. The cover can cover a plurality of cables of a cable harness. If wear forms a hole through the first layer, the second color of the second layer is visible from an environment external to the covered cable harness through the hole through the first layer.

Electrical cables and optical waveguides are disclosed as including an electrically insulative foam. The electrically insulative foam can coat at least one electrical conductor of the electrical cable. The electrically insulative foam can coat the optical fiber of the waveguide. The electrically insulative foam can also define a waveguide.

A wiring member includes a first sheet including a fusion layer, a second sheet, and at least one first wire-like transmission member provided between the first sheet and the second sheet. The first sheet and the second sheet are fixed to each other via the fusion layer in a direction intersecting with a longitudinal direction of the first wire-like transmission member.

A cable assembly includes a plug receiver, a conductor interface, a metal shell encasing the conductor interface and a portion of a cable of the cable assembly, a metal foil that wraps conformably around an exterior of the metal shell, wherein the metal foil covers substantially all of the exterior of the metal shell and extends beyond the metal shell onto a cable shielding layer. The cable assembly further includes a solder layer disposed about the metal foil, wherein the solder layer bonds and electrically couples the first foil portion to itself, the second foil portion to cable shielding at the location on the plurality of conductors that is proximate to the conductor interface, and the third foil portion to the plug receiver. The cable assembly further includes an electrically insulating layer that encases the metal shell, the metal foil, and the solder layer.

This application provides a composite film for a cable wrapping layer and a preparation method for the same. The composite film for the cable wrapping layer includes a PE film layer, a PET film layer laminated at the PE film layer, an aluminum foil layer laminated at the PET film layer, and a bonding layer arranged between the PET film layer and the aluminum foil layer. The PE film layer is made of raw materials having the following parts by weight: 40-45 parts of LLDPE with a melt index of 0.9-1.1 g/10 min and a density of 0.920-0.922 g/cm.sup.3, 35-40 parts of m-LLDPE with a melt index of 1.9-2.1 g/10 min and a density of 0.917-0.920 g/cm.sup.3 and 15-25 parts of ethylene-vinyl acetate copolymer.

A shield wire (P) that facilitates terminal processing is provided. This shield wire (P) includes a plurality of core wires and an inclusion (2) twisted together to form a core (3) having a cross-sectional circular shape, a drain wire (4) laterally wound around an outer periphery of the core, a shield tape (5) wound around, and a sheath (6) further disposed outside the shield tape (5). The shield tape (5) includes metal thin films (5b and 5c) on surfaces of a resin film (5a). An adhesive layer (7) is interposed between the shield tape and the sheath. The shield tape is adhesively integrated with the sheath by the adhesive layer.

A cable assembly includes a plug receiver, a conductor interface, a metal shell encasing the conductor interface and a portion of a cable of the cable assembly, a metal foil that wraps conformably around an exterior of the metal shell, wherein the metal foil covers substantially all of the exterior of the metal shell and extends beyond the metal shell onto a cable shielding layer. The cable assembly further includes a solder layer disposed about the metal foil, wherein the solder layer bonds and electrically couples the first foil portion to itself, the second foil portion to cable shielding at the location on the plurality of conductors that is proximate to the conductor interface, and the third foil portion to the plug receiver. The cable assembly further includes an electrically insulating layer that encases the metal shell, the metal foil, and the solder layer.

A shield wire is formed of eight twisted insulated core wires 1, an inclusion 2 between these respective insulated core wires 1, a tape 3 laterally wound around an outer periphery of a core formed of the insulated core wires and inclusion, a drain wire 4 disposed on an outer surface of the tape, a conductive fiber braided body 5 formed on an outer peripheral surface of the tape so as to interpose the drain wire, a sheath 6 that forms an outer peripheral surface of the braided body, and an adhesive layer 7 between the braided body and sheath. A braided body 5′ is adhesively integrated to the sheath 6′ by an adhesive layer; thus, the braided body 5′ is stripped with the sheath. This eliminates a need for a removal work of the braided body after stripping the sheath, thus ensuring good workability of the terminal processing.

A composite harness includes a composite cable that includes a plurality of first electric wires, a multicore wire formed by covering a plurality of second electric wires having a smaller diameter than the plurality of first electric wires with one urethane-based resin inner sheath to be in contact with the first electric wires, and a jacket covering an outer periphery of the plurality of first electric wires and the multicore wire, and a molded resin provided at an end portion of the composite cable so as to cover an outer surface of the inner sheath at an end portion of the multicore wire. The outer surface of the inner sheath is irregularity-formed at least at a portion in contact with the plurality of first electric wires and a portion covered with the molded resin.
