ABSTRACT:
A multiple conductor electric and/or electro-optic cable is disclosed which has a series of integral insulation components (vertebrae) of a very low dielectric resulting in an excellent electron flow. The preferred embodiment includes multiple conductor assemblies each having an elongated cylinder, and each having a plurality of strands of electrical conducting material helically wound and longitudinally disposed between the ends of the cable. The innermost and outermost of such assemblies may serve as the anode. Helically wound in an axially opposing direction and lying between the two anode assemblies is the cathode. There may be as many as four layers of insulating vertebrae (typically made of balsa) each radially separating the conductor layers. The vertebrae may be of equal length and longitudinally aligned or displaced in a variety of configurations depending upon the application. The conductors terminate at connectors coupled to the cable itself by a low dielectric link. The entire length of the cable between the link and the connectors is enclosed by a single or multiple cylinders of materials which contribute to electromagnetic performance, provide mechanical strength and protection against the elements and which improve to the aesthetic appeal of the cable. This unique combination of extremely low dielectric materials allows the full signal of the source to travel almost unaltered through the cable.
