Abstract: A method of extending the usable length of a power-over-ethernet cable includes the steps of providing twisted pairs of wires with the conductor of each wire being a 20 AWG or 22 AWG conductor and terminating the cable at an RJ-45 style connector. The connector for the 20 AWG conductors has an insert therein with holes that can accommodate 20 AWG conductors. FEP, PVC or PP insulation may surround each conductor.

Abstract: A process and apparatus for manufacturing multiple conductor cable having improved transmission parameters. The apparatus includes a rotatable alignment die having a plurality of apertures. At least one strand of the multiple conductor cable is caused to traverse an aperture of the rotatable alignment die. A rotation motor causes the strand to rotate about its elongate axis, and a translation motor causes the strand, or the cable, to traverse along its elongate axis. The multiple conductors are brought into a predetermined mutual mechanical alignment that is calculated to produce a cable having at least one improved transmission parameter. The cable can additionally include a support member adapted to maintain the conductors in the mutual mechanical alignment. A binder is applied to the cable to maintain the conductors in the predetermined mutual alignment.
