Patent number: 10436995Abstract: A cable, which extends in a longitudinal direction, has a cable core and a cable jacket. The cable jacket is extruded around the cable core. The cable is distinguished by the fact that the cable jacket has a plurality of chambers and, overall, is designed, in particular, in the manner of a hollow profile, and by the fact that a functional material different from the material of the cable jacket is introduced within at least one of the chambers. The functional material is preferably a flame proofing agent, but numerous other materials and, in general, functional elements are also conceivable.

Patent number: 10438724Abstract: A data cable for high-speed data transmission at signal frequencies of >10 GHz includes at least one core pair which is surrounded by a film-shaped pair shield having an inner shielding film and an outer shielding film which, are in electrical contact with one another and in which the inner shielding film is wound around the core pair. By virtue of this measure, an undesired resonance effect is avoided which, in previously wound pair shields, has not allowed use for relatively high signal frequencies. At the same time, an undesired common-mode signal, which would occur in the case of a longitudinally folded shielding film, is thus suppressed.Type: GrantFiled: October 25, 2016Date of Patent: October 8, 2019Assignee: LEONI Kabel GmbHInventors: Melanie Dettmer, Bernd Janssen
