Abstract

A new strip line cable is provided comprising a dielectric in tape form made of a porous, crystalline polymer and one or more pairs of electrical conductors, each pair of conductors having one conductor located on one side of said tape and the other conductor located on the opposite side of said tape and in substantially parallel relationship to the first conductor of the pair, the pairs of conductors being arranged in substantially parallel transverse relationship across said tape, and insulating layers made of a suitable non-porous plastic material placed over the conductors to affix them to said dielectric tape and encapsulate the cable assembly. The preferred tape dielectric is expanded, porous polytetrafluoroethylene.
