2. The Related Art

With reference to FIG. 2 , a sectional view of a cable structure 100 ′ in prior art is shown. The cable structure 100 ′ includes at least one stuffing element 1 ′, a first transmission module 2 ′, a first shielding layer 3 ′, a second transmission module 4 ′, a second shielding layer 5 ′, a woven layer 6 ′ and an insulating skin 7 ′ arranged in sequence, and arranged from an inside of the cable structure 100 ′ to an outside of the cable structure 100 ′. The at least one stuffing element 1 ′ is disposed in a center of the cable structure 100 ′. The first transmission module 2 ′ surrounds outside the at least one stuffing element 1 ′. The first shielding layer 3 ′ surrounds outside the first transmission module 2 ′. The second transmission module 4 ′ surrounds outside the first shielding layer 3 ′. The second shielding layer 5 ′ surrounds outside the second transmission module 4 ′. The woven layer 6 ′ surrounds outside the second shielding layer 5 ′. The insulating skin 7 ′ surrounds outside the woven layer 6 ′. The cable structure 100 ′ further includes a plurality of core wire assemblies 8 ′ disposed in the first transmission module 2 ′ and the second transmission module 4 ′, respectively. Each core wire assembly 8 ′ has at least two conductive wires 81 ′ and at least one ground wire 82 ′. A wire diameter of each conductive wire 81 ′ is 30 AWG (American Wire Gauge).

However, when the cable structure 100 ′ in the prior art is manufactured with the increase of a length of each conductive wire 81 ′, insertion losses of conductive wires 81 ′ of some of the plurality of the core wire assemblies 8 ′ are excessive so that the cable structure 100 ′ cannot satisfy a high frequency specification, thereby affecting an electrical signal transmission of the cable structure 100 ′.

Therefore, it is necessary to provide an innovative cable structure, and the innovative cable structure is applied for making conductive wires of the innovative cable structure maintain stable electrical signal transmissions in designs of the conductive wires of the innovative cable structure with different lengths.

An object of the present invention is to provide a cable structure. The cable structure includes at least one stuffing element, a first transmission module surrounding outside the at least one stuffing element, a first shielding layer surrounding outside the first transmission module, a second transmission module surrounding outside the first shielding layer, a second shielding layer surrounding outside the second transmission module, a woven layer surrounding outside the second shielding layer, an insulating skin surrounding outside the woven layer, a plurality of first core wire assemblies disposed in the first transmission module and the second transmission module, respectively, and at least one second core wire assembly disposed in the first transmission module or the second transmission module. A diameter of each first core wire assembly is different from a diameter of each second core wire assembly.

As described above, because the cable structure includes the plurality of the first core wire assemblies and the at least one second core wire assembly, the cable structure can be applied for making the cable structure maintain stable electrical signal transmissions in designs of the cable structure with the different lengths.

The stuffing element 1 is PP (Polypropylene) cotton. A material of the first shielding layer 3 is Teflon (Polytetrafluoroethylene, PTFE). Mechanical properties of the Teflon are soft, and have a very low surface energy and an insulating performance. The second shielding layer 5 is an aluminum foil Mylar, and the second shielding layer 5 which is the aluminum foil Mylar is used to eliminate an electromagnetic interference (EMI) and eliminate a radio frequency interference (RFI), and has an electromagnetic shielding function, an antistatic function and a better conductivity. The second shielding layer 5 which is the aluminum foil Mylar provides an electromagnetic shielding effect on account of the second shielding layer 5 having the electromagnetic shielding function.

As described above, because the cable structure 100 includes the plurality of the first core wire assemblies 8 and the at least one second core wire assembly 9 , the cable structure 100 can be applied for making the cable structure 100 maintain stable electrical signal transmissions in designs of the cable structure 100 with the different lengths.
