Electooptical Communications and Power Cable

摘要

An electrooptical communications and power cable has at least one light waveguide, which is arranged in a central multifibre bundle consisting of a smooth flexible metal tube and provided with a primary jacket. Two layers of stranded metal wires are extended coaxially to the multifibre bundle. The metal wires are also used for relieving a traction and/or transversal load. The internal metal wire layer consists of metal wires exhibiting a good electric conductivity. The external metal wire layer has metal wires which are arranged alternately individually and/or group groupwisely and exhibit a good electrical conductivity and metal wires exhibiting a high traction strength. The two wire layers are held at a distance (a) from each other by an insulating layer. The communications and power cable is used first of all for an electrooptical power connection between two voltage converters in an intelligent system.
