Abstract

The present invention includes a communications cable support-separator that has both a central region as well as a plurality of shaped sections that extend outward from the central region having various shaped profiles on the ends that are either solid or partially solid, foamed or foamed with a solid skin surface and that exhibits reduced cross-talk of any form between transmission media. Included is one or more end profiles which define a clearance to maintain a spacing between transmission media or transmission media pairs. The core may be comprised of principally polymer blends including olefin, fluoropolymer, chlorofluoropolymer based resins or combinations with and without inorganic additive such as nano-clay composites or conductive or insulative material. The specially shaped core support-separators can be either interior to a cable jacket or be employed singularly without the benefit of a jacket and extend along the longitudinal length of the communications cable.
