Bonded-Pairs can be manipulated without causing performance-robbing gaps between the conductors.
The signal problem caused by gaps between conductors along unbonded pair cable increased during installation.
The simulated installation was performed and measured in accordance with ANSI/TIA/EIA-568-B documents.
