Multiple Conductor Cables application field and working principle

Multiple Conductor Cables are a category of cables widely used in various industries, such as automation, data communications, industrial control, audio/video streaming, and medical technology. Primarily used for transmitting electrical signals, they are high capacity cables and designed for long distance communication. Multiple Conductor Cables are designed in such a way that individual conductors are separated from each other for preventing any kind of interference or crosstalk. This ensures that high quality signals are transmitted over long distances.

Types of Multiple Conductor Cables

There are a number of different types of Multiple Conductor Cables, each designed for different purposes. Typically, they can be categorized as two types: those that use a common shield for protection and those that have no shielding. Cables with a common shield are designed to enhance the cables’ durability and protect it from environmental conditions, such as moisture and temperature extremes. Cables without shielding are used in applications requiring a low signal-to-noise ratio, such as signal transmission over longer distances. Commonly used Multiple Conductor Cable types include:

• Shielded Twisted Pair (STP) Cable – This cable type consists of insulated conductors twisted in pairs and enclosed in a common foil shield covering. STP cables are often used in high-speed digital communication applications, such as Ethernet networks.
• Fiber Optic Cable – This type of cable consists of multiple glass or plastic conductors that are bundled together and surrounded by a protective sheathing. Fiber optic cables are typically used in high-bandwidth applications, such as data centers and telephone networks.
• Coaxial Cable – Coaxial cables consist of a solid core conductor surrounded by insulation and a metal shielding. They are most often used in radio frequency and microwave communication systems.
• Multiple Conductor Cable (55FB1521-18-FLT2-0CS2173) –This type of cable is designed to handle high-capacity digital communication over long distances. It consists of 18 individual conductors (four AWG 18 Stranded TC) along with a Mylar/foil covering and an overall jacket of Neoprene. This Multiple Conductor Cable is especially suited for applications requiring low signal-to-noise ratios and complex networking.

How Does a Multiple Conductor Cable Work?

The working principle of Multiple Conductor Cables is simple. When an electrical signal is applied to one end of the cable, the signal travels along the individual conductors, each of them carrying a part of the signal. This is possible because each of the individual conductors is separated from the others due to the layers of insulation, preventing any crosstalk or interference. As a result, the signal is not distorted or weakened. The signal reaches the other end of the cable in its original form, with minimal attenuation.

Uses of Multiple Conductor Cables

Multiconductor Cables are used in a wide range of applications, including:

• Building automation.
• Industrial automation.
• Audio/video streaming.
• Security systems.
• Data communications.
• Industrial control.
• Medical device applications.
• Communication lines.
• Telephone networks.

Conclusion

Multiple Conductor Cables are an essential part of many industries and applications. Their ability to transmit high quality electrical signals over long distances makes them ideal for a wide range of applications. While the most commonly used types are shielded twisted pair, fiber optic, and coaxial cables, special designs, like 55FB1521-18-FLT2-0CS2173, can be used for more demanding requirements.
