ABSTRACT - Tolerances of characteristic impedance, attenuation and time delay of an STP and a Twinax cable with skin-foam-skin insulation are calculated from tolerances of selected material and dimensional parameters of the cable. The method is used to provide some internal justification for cable quality based on manufacturing tolerances and to provide lists of critical manufacturing parameters that control tolerances of characteristic impedance, attenuation and time delay of the STP and Twinax cables.
