Abstract
An electrical interconnect is provided with two or more conductors and a conductor support structure, such as a tube, wherein the tube wall includes conductor support sites distributed along the wall. The conductors extend along the wall and across the tube and are maintained in a spaced relationship with respect to one another by the wall and the conductor support sites, which can be perforations through the tube wall, the conductors being inserted through the perforations. The conductor support sites for each conductor can be orthogonally disposed with respect to the sites for other conductors, allowing the conductors to be maintained in a generally helical relationship and each conductor can form a square-wave or trapezoidal-wave pattern along the tube. The interconnect can include cladding about the conductors and tube, such as a ribbed jacket and braided wire shield, and the conductor support structure may be provided with ribbing.
