Lan Cable Factory introduces the classification of communication cables:
1. Aluminum foil shielding, that is, when the cable pair is twisted, or when the outer quilt is used, a layer of aluminum foil Mylar tape is placed.
2. Winding shielding, also known as oblique wrapping, that is, the core wire or semi-finished product is wrapped in a spiral shape with multiple conductors. Its shielding effect is directional, and the shielding characteristics change when it is bent, but it has the advantages of a small outer diameter, The wire is soft and the price is relatively low; it is suitable for low-frequency shielding.
3. Braided shielding, non-directional shielding, good high-frequency shielding characteristics, suitable for high-frequency shielding, the shielding effect of multi-layer shielding can reach 100%, and the shielding characteristics do not change when bending.
4. Copper tape shield, similar to aluminum foil, but thicker.
5. Semiconductor plastic shielding is less used, but the shielding has no dead ends and the production speed is fast.
