The transmission cable is disclosed herein that includes the transmission medium; and outer jacket disposed about the transmission medium, and end cap swaged on the end of the transmission cable. Preferably, the end cap comprises a shape that aids in installation of the transmission cable. Also disclosed herein is a method of producing a transmission cable that includes the steps of: providing a transmission cable including a transmission medium, an outer jacket disposed about the transmission medium, and an end; and swaging an end cap on the end of the transmission cable. A method of installing a transmission cable is also disclosed herein, including the steps of: providing a transmission cable; and installing the cables. The step of installing the cable may be performed by either jetting installation, using an aerodynamically-shaped end cap on the cable, or by shaping the end cap in a manner so that an apparatus for pulling the cable may be attached to the end cap, and that the cable may be pulled through the space in which it is being installed.
