    摘要: A tape can comprise a strip of dielectric material, with adhering patches of electrical conductive material. The patches can be substantially electrically isolated from one another. The strip can be disposed in a communication cable to provide a shield that is electrically discontinuous or has high resistance between opposite cable ends. Each patch can interact with electromagnetic radiation associated with electrical signals transmitting over the cable. The patches can collectively interact with the transmitting electrical signals in a cumulative or resonant manner to produce a spike in return loss at a particular frequency of the transmitting signals. The frequency location of the spike can depend upon the sizes of the patches, with size impacting manufacturability. The patches can be sized such that the spike falls within an operating frequency of the transmitting signal but is suppressed, so the cable meets return loss specifications while offering manufacturing advantage.

    摘要: A cable shield tape can comprise patches of electrically conductive material disposed adjacent a strip of dielectric material, with the patches electrically isolated from one another. An attachment system can mechanically attach the patches to the dielectric material, for example to avoid flammable adhesives. The attachment system can comprise one or more mechanical fasteners, rivets, staples, clips, clamps, metallic members, nonorganic materials, nonflammable materials, holes, holes with flared or mushroomed rims, protrusions, etc. The attachment system can also or alternatively comprise technology for knolling, punching, seating, surface patterning, peening, embossing, etc. The tape can be wrapped around one or more cable conductors, such as wires that transmit data, to provide electrical or electromagnetic shielding. The resulting cable can have a shield that is electrically discontinuous between opposite ends of the cable.

    摘要: A communication cable, such as a fiber optic cable, can comprise a conductive tape that extends along the cable and that facilitates locating the cable from a remote location, for example when the cable is buried under ground. The tape can comprise a low resistance for transmitting a locate signal along the length of the cable that can be detected remotely by a detector without exposing the cable. The conductive tape can be circumferentially applied around the core of the cable under the cable's jacket. Thus, the conductive tape can be accessed without exposing the core. The cable can include one or more buffer tubes for housing optical fibers. The buffer tubes and/or the jacket can comprise an antioxidant for preventing degradation associated with contact with copper or other metal of the conductive tape.

    摘要: A fiber optic cable can inhibit water that may inadvertently enter the cable from flowing lengthwise within the cable. The fiber optic cable can include a buffer tube defining an interior volume extending along the cable. Water blocking barriers can be disposed in the buffer tube intermittently along the length of the cable. The barriers can be formed from a UV and thermal cured material and can comprise an acrylic. The barriers can be applied to the optical fibers or to a carrier tape that is wrapped around the optical fibers or fiber bundle. The barriers (or carrier tape) can be disposed against and/or adhere to an inner surface of the buffer tube to provide intermittent water blocking. Each barrier can provide a seal around the optical fibers and can limit flow of water in the interior volume.

    摘要: A fiber optic cable can inhibit water, that may inadvertently enter the cable, from damaging the cable's optical fibers. The fiber optic cable can comprise buffer tubes extending along the fiber optic cable. The buffer tubes can be arranged such that a ring of buffer tubes surrounds one or more centrally located buffer tubes. Stacked ribbons of optical fibers can be disposed in each buffer tube, along with water-swellable tape and water-swellable yarn. The tape, yarn, and optical fibers can be dry or free from water-blocking gels or fluids. The water-swellable materials can provide an unexpected level of water protection. The water-swellable materials can, for example, limit flow of seawater within the buffer tubes. In an exemplary embodiment, progression of seawater can be limited to three meters or less for a twenty-four hour test period during which the seawater is under about one meter of head pressure.
