Abstract:
A cable may include a plurality of twisted pairs of individually insulated conductors, a separator positioned between the twisted pairs, and a jacket formed around the twisted pairs and the separator. The separator may include a longitudinally extending spine positioned between the plurality of twisted pairs, and at least one prong respectively extending from the spine at each of a plurality of longitudinally spaced locations. Additionally, for each pair of adjacent longitudinally spaced locations, the at least one prong extending at a first of the pair of locations may extend in a first set of one or more directions and the at least one prong extending at a second of the pair of locations may extend in a second set of one or more directions that is different than the first set of one or more directions.
