Abstract
An example communications cable includes a core carrier disposed within a cable jacket. A pair of twisted conductors are partially disposed within the core carrier. A portion of the core carrier separates a first conductor in the pair of twisted conductors from a second conductor in the pair of twisted conductors.
Claims12
A cable comprising:
- a cable jacket;
- a core carrier disposed within the cable jacket, the core carrier:
- being in contact with the cable jacket,
- being an electrical insulator, non-compressible, and a single element, and comprising first and second partial outer tubes;
- and
- a pair of twisted conductors partially disposed within the core carrier, the pair of twisted conductors each lacking an insulator, wherein:
- the first and second partial outer tubes are configured to hold the pair of twisted conductors in place when the cable jacket is stripped from the core carrier,
- a portion of the core carrier separates a first conductor in the pair of twisted conductors from a second conductor in the pair of twisted conductors,
- less than half of a cross-section of each of the first conductor and the second conductor protrudes from the core carrier when the cable jacket is stripped from the core carrier, and
- the first conductor and the second conductor are in partial contact with the first and second partial outer tubes, respectively.
