Patent number: 10545308Abstract: A flat drop cable has notches or other structures for enhancing the stripability of the jacket from the a core of the flat drop cable. The notches can have an angled configuration with surfaces that converge as the notch extends into the jacket. Inner edges of the notches can be positioned along a tear path that intersects the core of the flat drop cable. For example, the notches can be offset from a minor axis of the flat drop cable a sufficient distance such that the notches are positioned outside a central boundary region that extends tangent to sides of the core and parallel to the minor axis of the flat drop cable.Type: GrantFiled: December 10, 2018Date of Patent: January 28, 2020Assignees: CommScope Technologies LLC, CommScope Technologies Australia Pty Ltd., CommScope Telecommunications (Shanghai) Co., Ltd.Inventors: Aly Fahd, Wayne M.

Patent number: 10008309Abstract: A hybrid cable is provided that transmits both electrical power and optical signals. The hybrid cable has a transverse cross-sectional shape with multiple lobes and a generally circular outer boundary. At least some of the lobes surround and insulate the electrical conductors. The lobes surrounding the electrical conductors can be torn away from the remainder of the cable while continuing to insulate the electrical conductors.Type: GrantFiled: December 18, 2015Date of Patent: June 26, 2018Assignee: COMMSCOPE CONNECTIVITY BELGIUM BVBAInventors: Adam Broughton, David J.

Patent number: 9343882Abstract: The disclosed power cable enables optical fibers to be installed after the power cable has been installed, thereby forming a hybrid cable. Segments of the power cable are manufactured with fiber installation tubes containing pulling members. When the power cable segments are coupled together, the fiber installation tubes and pulling members also are coupled together to form a fiber installation conduit and an extended pulling member. A fiber pull arrangement can be coupled to the extended pulling member and drawn through the fiber installation conduit within the power cable at any time subsequent to installation of the power cable.Type: GrantFiled: February 27, 2014Date of Patent: May 17, 2016Inventors: Wayne M. Kachmar, William F. Wright, Thomas P. Huegerich, Lizhang Yang, William Jacobsen, Aly Fahd
