Twinaxial cable |
A type of communications cable consisting of two center
conductors surrounded by an insulating spacer, which is
in turn surrounded by a tubular outer conductor (usually
a braid, foil, or both). The entire assembly is then covered
with an insulating and protective outer layer. Twinaxial
is often thought of as dual-coaxial cable. Twinaxial cable
was commonly used with Wang VS terminals, IBM 5250
terminals on System/3x, and AS/400 minicomputers.
Also called twinax.
