Abstract

Bundled cables including a plurality of sub-cables, each sub-cable comprising a plurality of twisted pairs of insulated conductors. In one example, a bundled cable includes first, second and third sub-cables, each comprising a plurality of twisted pairs of insulated conductors that each has a unique twist lay. The first sub-cable has a first lay scheme, the second sub-cable has a second lay scheme that is different than the first lay scheme, and the third sub-cable has a third lay scheme that is different than the first and second lay schemes. The first, second and third sub-cables are twisted together about a longitudinal axis, and a delta in twist lay between a closing lay of any one twisted pair of the first plurality of twisted pairs and a closing lay of any one twisted pair of the second and third pluralities of twisted pairs is at least approximately 0.020 inches.

Claims (18)

1. A bundled cable comprising a first sub-cable comprising a first plurality of twisted pairs of insulated conductors each having a unique twist lay, the first sub-cable having a first lay scheme;
and a second sub-cable comprising a second plurality of twisted pairs of insulated conductors each having a unique twist lay, the second sub-cable having a second lay scheme that is different than the first lay scheme; and wherein the first and second sub-cables are twisted together about a longitudinal axis; and wherein a delta in twist lay between a closing lay of any one twisted pair of the first plurality of twisted pairs of insulated conductors and a closing lay of any one twisted pair of the second plurality of twisted pairs of insulated conductors is at least approximately 0.020 inches.
2. The bundled cable as claimed in claim 1, further comprising a filler.
3. The bundled cable as claimed in claim 2, wherein the filler is located adjacent to the first and second sub-cables.
4. The bundled cable as claimed in claim 2, wherein the filler is conductive.
5. The bundled cable as claimed in claim 1, wherein each of the first and second sub-cables comprises a conductive shield respectively disposed about the first and second pluralities of twisted pairs.
6. The bundled cable as claimed in claim 1, further comprising an overall conductive shield at least partially surrounding the first and second sub-cables.
7. The bundled cable as claimed in claim 1, wherein each of the first and second sub-cables comprises a jacket respectively disposed about the first and second pluralities of twisted pairs.
8. The bundled cable as claimed in claim 1, further comprising a jacket enclosing the first and second sub-cables.
9. The bundled cable as claimed in claim 1, wherein the delta in closing lays is in a range of approximately 0.020 inches to approximately 0.040 inches.
10. The bundled cable as claimed in claim 1, further comprising a third sub-cable comprising a third plurality of twisted pairs of insulated conductors each having a unique twist lay, the third sub-cable having a third lay scheme that is different than the first and second lay schemes;
wherein the delta in twist lay between the closing lay of any one twisted pair of the first plurality of twisted pairs of insulated conductors and a closing lay of any one twisted pair of the second and third pluralities of twisted pairs of insulated conductors is at least approximately 0.020 inches.
11. A method of reducing crosstalk between twisted pairs of adjacent sub-cables in a bundled cable, the method comprising:
providing a first sub-cable comprising a first plurality of twisted pairs of insulated conductors each having a unique twist lay, the first sub-cable having a first lay scheme;
providing a second sub-cable comprising a second plurality of twisted pairs of insulated conductors each having a unique twist lay, the second sub-cable having a second lay scheme that is different than the first lay scheme; and twisting the first and second sub-cables together about a longitudinal axis;
and selecting the first lay scheme and the second lay scheme such that a delta in twist lay between a closing lay of any one twisted pair of the first plurality of twisted pairs of insulated conductors and a closing lay of any one twisted pair of the second plurality of twisted pairs of insulated conductors is at least approximately 0.020 inches.
12. The method as claimed in claim 11, wherein the step of twisting the first and second sub-cables together includes twisting a filler together with the first and second sub-cables.
13. The method as claimed in claim 11, further comprising steps of:
providing a first conductive shield disposed about the first plurality of twisted pairs; and providing a second a conductive shield disposed about the second plurality of twisted pairs.
14. The method as claimed in claim 11, further comprising a step of providing an overall conductive shield at least partially surrounding the first and second sub-cables.
15. The method as claimed in claim 11, further comprising steps of;
providing a first jacket disposed about the first plurality of twisted pairs;
and providing a second jacket disposed about the second plurality of twisted pairs.
16. The method as claimed in claim 11, further comprising a step of providing a jacket enclosing the first and second sub-cables.
17. The method as claimed in claim 11, wherein selecting the first and second lay schemes includes making the selections such that the delta in closing lays is in a range of approximately 0.020 inches to approximately 0.040 inches.
18: The method as claimed in claim 11, further comprising steps of:
providing a third sub-cable comprising a third plurality of twisted pairs of insulated conductors each having a unique twist lay, the third sub-cable having a third lay scheme that is different than the first and second lay schemes; and selecting the third lay scheme such that the delta in twist lay between the closing lay of any one twisted pair of the first plurality of twisted pairs of insulated conductors and a closing lay of any one twisted pair of the second and third pluralities of twisted pairs of insulated conductors is at least approximately 0.020 inches.
