Abstract
Description
technical field
[0001] The present invention relates to a high performance data cable capable of successfully transmitting in the frequency range from 0.3 MHz to 600 MHz. In particular, the present invention provides a helically shielded twisted pair having an impedance standard deviation of 3.5 or less at an average impedance of about 50 to 200 ohms. In addition, the present invention provides a high performance data cable comprising several pairs of helically shielded twisted wires and having an average standard deviation of 3.5 or less, with no single standard deviation greater than 4.5 for all cables. Background technique
[0002] Existing high-performance data cables can often use heavy, rigid 2-mil aluminum tape backed with 1-mil polyester (Mylar) as the shield. The shield is wrapped around each unshielded pair subset in a wrap length equal to the overall lay length of the cable, typically 4.0 to 6.0 inches in wrap length. The strip is approximately 0.5 inches wide. ...
