| Description |
English: Mu metal submarine telegraph cable construction. This was a type of cable used for long undersea telegraph cables, invented by The Telegraph Construction and Maintenance Company Ltd., London, in 1923. The copper conductor was wrapped with fine wire made of Mu metal, a high permeability nickel-iron alloy. It had been found that the seawater surrounding ordinary cables distorted the signal carried by them, resulting in very low transmission rates. The Mu metal wrapping added inductance to the cable, correcting the distortion and enabling higher data rates. |
