Patent attributes
Bundled cables including a plurality of sub-cables, each sub-cable comprising a plurality of twisted pairs of insulated conductors. In one example, a bundled cable includes first and second sub-cables, each comprising a plurality of twisted pairs of insulated conductors that each has a unique twist lay. The first sub-cable may have a first lay scheme, the second sub-cable may have a second lay scheme that is different than the first lay scheme at any point along a longitudinal axis of the bundled cable. The first, and second sub-cables are bundled together, for example, with a jacket, shield or binder, and a delta in twist lay between a closing lay of any one twisted pair of the first plurality of twisted pairs and a closing lay of any one twisted pair of the second plurality of twisted pairs is at least approximately 0.020 inches.
