  • Patent number: 5220130
    Abstract: Existing electrical cables (such as low speed data, low or high speed computer or telephone cables) employ connectors having holes or other openings for receiving the insulation or requiring conductors having a precise pitch. For example, a mechanical part of the connector may close over the received cables, piercing the insulation and making an electrical contact with the conductor inside the insulation. Or, the insulation may also be used to provide the spacing required for mass termination of insulation such as connectors which require a specified pitch. This dimension or pitch is supplied by the inner insulation while the outer insulation supplies the dimension required to meet the impedance/capacitance requirements of the electrical circuits involved. The modern high speed data cables must have substantially more insulation so that the capacitive loading or impedance match of the wire is at an acceptable level.
