ABSTRACT:
An integrated power and data communications hybrid cable assembly for local area computer network is disclosed. The network includes a hybrid cable integrating both power supply and data communications into one physical cable. For each computer workstation served, a length of cable extends between a panel and an outlet. The panel includes a cabinet defining an interior region and an interior barrier dividing the cabinet interior region into a power section and a data section. The interior barrier includes barium ferrite to magnetically isolate the data section from the power section. The hybrid cable is electrically coupled between an outlet and the panel to provide power to a computer workstation electrically coupled the outlet and to provide for data transfer between the panel and the computer workstation. The hybrid cable includes a first group of one or more conductors for supplying power; a second group of one or more conductors for transmitting voice or data signals; a first insulation sheath enclosing the first group of one or more conductors for insulating the second group of one or more conductors from a magnetic field produced by the first group of one or more conductors; a second insulation sheath, similar in construction to the first insulation sheath, enclosing the second group of one or more conductors; and a third insulation sheath enclosing both the first and second insulation sheaths. The outlet includes power and data female connectors adapted to receive a male connectors from a computer workstation device.
