Abstract
A data cable, which is particularly suitable for the automotive industry and for transmission frequencies in the gigahertz range. The data cable has two wire pairs which each have two wires which are surrounded by a pair shield. In addition to the pair shield, a planar or flat shielding element which does not surround the core pairs and makes contact with the two pair shields is arranged between the wires. The shielding element has, in particular, individual wires which run next to one another. Contact can be made with the pair shield in a plug region in a simple manner by way of the shielding element.
Claims18
A data cable, comprising:
- two wire pairs each including two wires;
- a pair shielding surrounding each of said two wire pairs;
- a planar shielding element disposed between said wire pairs and not encompassing said wire pairs, said planar shielding element making contact with each said pair shielding;
- and
- said planar shielding element is formed of a plurality of single individual wires extending adjacent to one another, said individual wires are a splayed-out stranded conductor.
A method for producing a data cable, the method comprising:
- providing two shielded wire pairs each having two wire pairs and a respective pair shielding;
- inserting a planar shielding element that does not surround the wire pairs between the two shielded wire pairs;
- and
- forming the data cable in a continuous process, and wherein the planar shielding element comprises a stranded conductor that is splayed-out and extends parallel with the wire pairs.
