INTER-8 Weave Cable Substantially Reduces Magnetic Field Pickup and Radiation Compared with Conventional Twisted Pair Cable.

A current-carrying twisted pair is superior to parallel conductors, but is of limited effectiveness in reducing electromagnetic radiation. Correspondingly, the twisted pair is limited in avoiding unwanted pickup of external H-fields (D.C. to 100 KHz).

INTER-8 WEAVE cable provides substantial improvement over the performance of a conventional twisted pair. INTER-8 WEAVE cable involves four separate conductors braided into interlocking loops and is a patented design of Magnetic Shield Corporation. In application, adjacent conductors 90º apart are connected together, effectively providing a two conductor circuit.

Because the INTER-8 WEAVE design incorporates parallel conductors, the cable provides double the current carrying capacity of a two wire cable of the same AWG size. In contrast to conventional twisted pair, INTER-8 WEAVE does not kink or untwist when left free.

APPLICATIONS
INTER-8 WEAVE cable has applications to many interference problems. Current-carrying conductors generating interference fields can be replaced with INTER-8 WEAVE cable to substantially reduce radiation. In low impedance circuits where external interference results in disturbing signals, INTER-8 WEAVE cable will reduce the circuit sensitivity to the external fields.

Among typical applications are cable connections to strain gages, thermocouples, photoelectric detectors, audio coils and transformers, piezoelectric transducers and preamplifiers.

TYPES OF CABLE
The basic INTER-8 WEAVE cable is unshielded. It is also stocked with an outer braided shield of CO-NETIC AA high permeability wire to provide magnetic shielding.
