ABSTRACT:
This invention provides a means of using flexible (also often referred to as simply "flex") circuit structures for external cabling in a small light package, particularly those utilized in portable computers. The external cabling is composed of a flex circuit that is strengthened by fiber strands, and a wrapped sheath of woven mesh netting. The cabling may be further encased in an overcoating for protection against abrasion and chemicals. The packaging scheme using this cable may include a storage device for the cable such that the cable is retractable.
