Abstract
A woven cable has plural signal conductors, a pair of ground conductors for each signal conductor (one on each side thereof) and spacer fibers between adjacent conductors, the separation created by the spacer fibers determining the impedance between conductors. The foregoing all extend in the warp direction. The warp conductors are interwoven with weft fibers in such manner that each signal conductor and the ground conductors on either side thereof at all times are simultaneously above or below a particular weft fiber. Cross-talk is materially reduced, capacitance is more consistent, velocity of propagation is increased, signal loss is reduced, and rise time is lowered thereby.
