Abstract

A separator for a communication cable includes a plurality of barriers formed in a radial direction so that at least two pair units, in each of which at least two insulation-coated wires are spirally twisted, are received in spaces formed by the barriers one by one so as to separate the pair units from each other. At least one of the barriers has a relatively greater thickness than the other barriers. Thus, a communication cable having the separator may prevent PSNEXT (Power Sum Near and Crosstalk) caused by interference between adjacent wires when a high frequency signal is transmitted through the wires.
