Local area network cabling arrangement having improved capacitance unbalance and structural return loss

摘要

A cabling media which is suitable for high performance data transmission includes a plurality of insulated metallic conductor-pairs, each pair including two plastic insulated metallic conductors which are twisted together. More specifically, the introduction of a periodic rotation along the length of each insulated conductor essentially acts to cancel out a large number of the adverse effects which may result due to a lack of conductor concentricity and/or dielectric eccentricity.
