  • Patent number: 7612289
    Abstract: An electrical cable includes a cable jacket defining a central longitudinal axis and a plurality of twisted pairs of insulated conductors oriented longitudinally within the cable jacket. Each of the twisted pairs of insulated conductors has a width. A filler element is disposed in the cable jacket and is located adjacent to at least one of the twisted pairs of insulated conductors. The filler element defines a width that is substantially larger than the width of each the twisted pairs of insulated conductors. The filler element has a central axis laterally offset from the central longitudinal axis of the cable jacket. The filler element reduces alien crosstalk from an adjacent cable. A separator is disposed in said cable jacket between the twisted pairs of insulated conductors to reduce crosstalk between the twisted pairs of insulated conductors.

  • Patent number: 7317164
    Abstract: An electrical cable that has a cable jacket defining a central longitudinal axis and at least first, second, third, and fourth twisted pairs of insulated conductors oriented longitudinally within the cable jacket and forming a core. Each of the twisted pairs of insulated conductors defines a width. A filler element is disposed in the cable jacket and located adjacent to at least one of the twisted pairs of insulated conductors. The filler element defines a width that is substantially larger than the width of each of the twisted pairs of insulated conductors. The filler element has a central axis laterally offset from the central longitudinal axis of the cable jacket, and the filler element is twisted around the core.

  • Publication number: 20060131054
    Abstract: A cable includes a plurality of twisted pairs of insulated conductors, and an insulating cable jacket that has a central longitudinal axis encloses the twisted pairs of insulated conductors. The cable jacket defines an inner perimeter that surrounds the twisted pairs of insulated conductors that is substantially circular in section transverse to the central longitudinal axis and an outer perimeter that is substantially non-circular in section transverse to the central longitudinal axis. The outer perimeter includes at least one raised area for maintaining spacing from an adjacent cable, thereby reducing alien crosstalk.
