ABSTRACT:
A composite cable (10) includes a core section (12), a tensile strength section (20), a conductor and water blocking section (30), an armor tape (50), and an outer jacket (60). Core section (12) includes at least one fiber optic conductor (14), and conductor and water blocking section (30) includes twisted pair conductors (32) and water blocking members (36,37). Tensile strength section (20) includes strength members (22). Composite cable (10) combines the high bit-rate capacity of fiber optic conductor (14) with the electrical signal/power carrying capacity of electrical conductors (32) and meets water blocking and tensile strength requirements.
