Abstract
A cable is proposed, particularly a coaxial cable, with an internal conductor (1), an insulation (4) which encloses the internal conductor (1), an external conductor encompassing several elements (2) extending essentially in the longitudinal direction of the cable and resting on the insulation (4), and with a cladding layer (3) which rests on the elements (2) of the external conductor and on the insulation and encloses same, where the cross section of the surface (6) of the insulation (4) vertical to the longitudinal direction of the cable is a polygon, and the cladding layer (3) rests on the corners (7) of the polygon.
Claims18
Coaxial cable comprising:
- (a) an internal conductor;
- (b) an insulation which encloses the internal conductor and has a periphery which defines a polygon having a plurality of corners and sides;
- (c) a metallic cladding layer surrounding the insulation, the cladding layer resting on the corners of the polygon and defining spaces between the sides of the polygon and the cladding layer;
- and
- (d) several long elements extending essentially longitudinally in the cable and situated in the spaces between the sides of the polygon and the cladding layer.
