Abstract
Abstract A coaxial cable having a tape with a metal deposited thereon which is wound over a laterally wound shielding layer which is, in turn, formed over an insulation layer about the conductor. The tape includes a plastic tape and a metal layer deposited on the plastic tape, and the tape is disposed such that the metal layer is in contact with the laterally wound shielding layer. Improved high frequency shielding characteristics are obtained using this structure without sacrificing cable flexibility.

Claims Analysis
Total Claims: 7
Claim 1
Independent Claim
71 words
A coaxial cable having a central conductor, comprising: an insulation layer wound around said conductor; a laterally wound shielding layer formed of a plurality of wires wound at a predetermined pitch around said insulation layer; and a metal tape wound over said shielding layer, said tape including a plastic tape and a metal layer which is deposited on said plastic tape, said metal layer being in contact with said shielding layer.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim
71 words
A coaxial cable having a central conductor, comprising: an insulation layer wound around said conductor; a laterally wound shielding layer formed of a plurality of wires wound at a predetermined pitch around said insulation layer; and a metal tape wound over said shielding layer, said tape including a plastic tape and a metal layer which is deposited on said plastic tape, said metal layer being in contact with said shielding layer.
