  2. Ribbon cable - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ribbon_cable

    Ribbon cable. Left: 20-way grey ribbon cable with wire for pin 1 marked red, insulation partly stripped. Right: 16-way rainbow ribbon with IDC connector. A ribbon cable is a cable with many conducting wires running parallel to each other on the same flat plane. As a result, the cable is wide and flat. Its name comes from its resemblance to a ...

  3. Stressed ribbon bridge - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stressed_ribbon_bridge

    A stressed ribbon bridge (also stress-ribbon bridge or catenary bridge[1]) is a tension structure similar in many ways to a simple suspension bridge. The suspension cables are embedded in the deck, which follows a catenary arc between supports. As with a simple suspension bridge, the weight is taken by the suspension cables, but unlike the ...

  4. All-dielectric self-supporting cable - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/All-dielectric_self...

    All-dielectric self-supporting (ADSS) cable is a type of optical fiber cable that is strong enough to support itself between structures without using conductive metal elements. It is used by electrical utility companies as a communications medium, installed along existing overhead transmission lines and often sharing the same support structures ...

  5. Twisted pair - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Twisted_pair

    Twisted ribbon cable used for Parallel SCSI connections A twisted ribbon cable is a variant of standard ribbon cable in which adjacent pairs of conductors are bonded and twisted together. The twisted pairs are then lightly bonded to each other in a ribbon format.

  6. IDC (electrical connector) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/IDC_(electrical_connector)

    Pin 1 is typically indicated on the body of the connector by a red or raised "V" mark. The corresponding wire in a ribbon cable is usually indicated by red coloration, a raised molded ridge, or markings printed onto the cable insulation. On the connector pin 2 is opposite pin 1, pin 3 is next to pin 1 along the length of the connector, and so on.

  7. Simple suspension bridge - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Simple_suspension_bridge

    A stressed ribbon bridge also has one or more catenary curves and a deck laid on the main cables. Unlike a simple suspension bridge however, a stressed ribbon bridge has a stiff deck, usually due to the addition of compression elements (concrete slabs) laid over the main cables.

  8. Types of suspension bridges - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Types_of_suspension_bridges

    The articles about each type of bridge have further specific construction details. Suspension bridges are suitable for the longest spans, provided the cables and their anchorage are of sufficient strength. Their construction cost is high, so usually they are less economical than other bridges for spans less than 1,000 ft (300 m).

  9. Twin-lead - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Twin-lead

    t. e. Twin lead cable is a two-conductor flat cable used as a balanced transmission line to carry radio frequency (RF) signals. It is constructed of two, stranded copper wires, or solid copper-clad steel wires. The wires are held a fixed distance apart by a plastic ribbon that is a good insulator at radio frequencies (usually polyethylene).
