PROTECTIVE JACKET IN A COAXIAL CABLE
First Claim
1. A coaxial cable comprising:
- two or more internal components comprising an electrical conductor configured to propagate a signal and an outer conductor surrounding the electrical conductor; and
a jacket surrounding the internal components, the jacket comprising;
two or more protruding portions; and
two or more recessed portions each positioned between two of the protruding portions,wherein each of the protruding portions makes contact with the outer conductor and each of the recessed portions does not make contact with the outer conductor.

Abstract
A protective jacket in a coaxial cable. In one example embodiment, a coaxial cable includes two or more internal components and a jacket surrounding the internal components. The internal components include an electrical conductor configured to propagate a signal and an outer conductor surrounding the electrical conductor. The jacket includes two or more protruding portions and two or more recessed portions. Each recessed portion is positioned between two of the protruding portions. Each of the protruding portions makes contact with the outer conductor and each of the recessed portions does not make contact with the outer conductor. A method for manufacturing a coaxial cable with a protective jacket is also disclosed.
