<p>A multi-energy waveguide (11) or cable well-suited for simultaneously transmitting both electrical and optical signals. In a preferred embodiment, the cable (11) includes an optical fiber, the optical fiber comprising a core (15) and a cladding (17), the cladding coaxially surrounding the core. The core may be a glass core or a plastic core. The cable also includes an electrical conductor, the electrical conductor (21) coaxially surrounding the cladding and being placed in direct contact therewith.</p> |
