A modular telemetry cable system having first and second array terminals spaced apart a distance of D. A cable extends between the terminals having X number of analog signal transmission means which is connected to 2X transducer sets for gathering 2X analog signals. The analog signals are processed and transmitted as digital signals over a digital transmission means connected between the terminals. At the location in the cable of the two interior transducer sets, the cable is penetrated to connect the interior transducer sets to the same analog transmission means. The portion of the same analog transmissions means between the two interior sets is disconnected from the two interior sets. At the penetrations in the cable of the two interior sets, the other analog transmission means are cut. One transducer set on opposite sides of the cuts in the other transmission means are connected to each of the other analog transmission means. The cable includes only 2X penetrations in the cable for connecting the transducer sets and providing cuts.
In a telemetry system cable for connection between first and second array terminals (ATs) spaced apart a distance D, said cable extending between said ATs and including X number of analog signal transmission means, wherein X is a positive integer equal to two or more, the improvement comprising
