First Claim
Patent Images
1. A twisted pair of insulated conductors constructed for data communications comprising:
- a first insulated conductor comprising a first conductive core and a first discrete insulating layer surrounding the first conductive core along its length; and
a second insulated conductor comprising a second conductive core and a second discrete insulating layer surrounding the second conductive core along its length;
wherein the first and second insulating layers have a substantially oval widthwise cross-section;
wherein the first and second insulated conductors are twisted together to form the twisted pair constructed for data communications;
wherein the first insulated conductor does not include an outer conductor coaxially surrounding the first discrete insulating layer;
wherein the second insulated conductor does not include an outer conductor coaxially surrounding the second discrete insulating layer; and
wherein the first and second conductive cores are substantially circular in cross-section.
