Abstract: A sandwich cable fairing designed for attachment to cables that are towed at operational speeds by marine vessels. The sandwich cable fairing has a seven-layer design that combines layers of elastic, fiber reinforced, and adhesive materials. The fairing dampens the vibration resulting from the frequency of flapping caused by a cable being towed at operational speeds. The layering of materials allows the fairing to have the flexibility to be crushed by cable equipment while maintaining the requisite stiffness to reducing flapping and the resulting vibration.
