METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR FORMING CABLE MEDIA

摘要

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide cable media capable of satisfying many high-performance standards on the operation such as the reduction of extraneous cross-talk when cables are arranged in high cable density. SOLUTION: The method for forming the cable media 1 includes preparing a wire pair including the first and the second conductor members 11 and 13. Each of the first and the second conductor members includes a conductor and an insulation cover surrounding the conductor thereof, respectively. The first and second conductor members are twisted about one another to form a twisted wire pair 3 having a twist length that purposefully varies along a length of the twisted wire pair. The method may include: imparting a purposefully varied pretwist to the wire pair using a wire pair twist modulator; and imparting additional twist to the wire pair using a wire pair twisting device downstream of the wire pair twist modulator.
