EMC means “electromagnetic compatibility”. A cable’s high degree of electromagnetic compatibility means that it cannot be adversely affected by electromagnetic waves or effects or, if so, only to a small extent. Vote Up +0 Vote Down -0You already voted!
Cable attenuation means reduction of the energy of a signal transmitted over a distance and has an effect on the transmission speed in the case of bus cables, for example. It is similar to electrical impedance but only for high frequencies. Vote Up +0 Vote Down -0You already voted!
The structure of the cable is special. When +/- torsion occurs, the cable shortens or becomes longer internally. Similar to a towel being wrung. In the case of cores, for example, this is achieved in that the stranding contains elements that compensate for the movement of the cores and act like a shock absorber. Vote […]
A star quad structure is used as an alternative to a cable with two twisted pair elements. Four cores are stranded together in a criss-cross pattern, whereby the respectively opposite cores form a core pair. This structure prevents so-called crosstalk. Vote Up +0 Vote Down -0You already voted!
7-core cables are problematic, above all over long distances and in small bend radii. The problem is the large stranding circumference that mainly occurs in the case of 7-core cables with cross sections of more than 1.0 mm. Due to the push/pull forces that act on the cores when the cable is bent, the cores […]
