The invention discloses a ship used digital communication cable characterized by low-
smoke,
halogen-free, and
flame-retardant, and belongs to the technical field of cables. The digital communication cable comprises four pairs of
twisted pair wires which are separated by a cross; the
twisted pair wires are correspondingly arranged inside
four quadrants separated by the cross; a
polyester belt is longitudinally packaged on the
twisted pair wires and the cross; an
aluminum foil inner shielding layer longitudinally packages the
polyester belt; a cross flow conductor, which is in contact with the
aluminum foil inner shielding layer, is arranged on the inner side of the
aluminum foil inner shielding layer, an inner sheath is arranged outside the aluminum foil inner shielding layer; an outer shielding layer, which is formed by weaving
copper wires, is arranged outside the inner sheath; and an outer sheath, which is made from a non-
halogen material, is arranged outside the outer shielding layer. The cable has double shielding effects, so that the
shielding effect thereof is better; the cross flow conductor can be earthed, thereby preventing electromagnetic signals generated inside from interfering other
electronic equipment; and the cross is arranged for reducing mutual
signal interference between the twisted pair wires. The digital communication cable has the advantages of good anti-
electromagnetism interference performance, and little
distortion during transferring the signals, and can be applied to data communications for ships.
