  • Patent number: 11934023
    Abstract: Embodiments of the disclosure relate to an optical fiber cable having at least one optical fiber, a cable jacket, and a foam layer. The cable jacket has an inner surface and an outer surface. The outer surface is an outermost surface of the optical fiber cable, and the inner surface is disposed around the at least one optical fiber. The foam layer is disposed between the at least one optical fiber and the cable jacket. The foam layer includes a polymer component having from 30% to 100% by weight of a polyolefin elastomer (POE) or thermoplastic elastomer (TPE) and from 0% to 70% by weight of low density polyethylene (LDPE). The foam layer has a closed-cell morphology having pores with an average effective circle diameter of 10 ?m to 500 ?m. Further, the expansion ratio of the foam layer is at least 50%.

  • Publication number: 20240015931
    Abstract: A heat exchanger includes a roll-bond evaporator having a heatpipe channel network spanning a primary panel area and at least one secondary multiple panel area, and at least one plurality of fins joined to at least one secondary panel area. The primary panel area is configured to receive electronic circuitry, heat transfer fluid is evaporated in heatpipe channels of the primary panel area, the heat transfer fluid is condensed in heatpipe channels in the secondary panel area(s), and heat is dissipated by the fins into an ambient environment. Secondary panel areas may be bent to bound a cavity and/or assume a generally cylindrical shape. The heat exchanger may be incorporated into a small cell radio node for 5G telecommunications.
