Abstract
A method and a resulting cable (10) is disclosed which precludes fluid wicking within the interior of the cable (10) by impregnating the cable (10) with a sealing composition and curing the sealing composition therein. The cable (10) includes an ultimate strata (18), a penultimate strata (20) and a central strata (40) concentrically disposed. The central strata (40) includes a central signal transmission medium (44) separated from the penultimate strata (20) by a central insulator or dielectric (42). The penultimate strata (20) includes a braided sheath (32) circumscribing a braided conductor (22) and an insulator (30) interposed therebetween. The ultimate strata (18) surrounds the interior or the penultimate strata (20) and central strata (40) of the cable (10).
