Abstract
An improved data telecommunications cable includes a plurality of twisted pairs of insulated conductors and at least one configurable tape separator disposed between the plurality of twisted pairs of insulated conductors along a longitudinal length of the cable. The communications cable also includes a jacket assembly enclosing the plurality of twisted pairs of insulated conductors and the configurable tape separator. The configurable tape separator separates at least one of the plurality of twisted pairs of insulated conductors from others of the plurality of twisted pairs of insulated conductors with a spacing sufficient to provide a desired crosstalk isolation between each of the plurality of twisted pairs of insulated conductors. The configurable tape separator may include a dielectric tape and one or more conductive or partially conductive layers.
