Water block or resistant cable is a multi-conductor cable that is designed to be used in a wet or aquatic environment. The cable can be designed to perform in different types of aquatic environments such as saltwater, freshwater, and chlorinated pools. Water block, waterproof or water resistant cables can be designed to function completely submerged and at differing depths. Water block, waterproof or resistant cable is built using specific jacket material that can function in a wet environment. Aside from the jacket material of a water block, waterproof or resistant cable, the use of water blocking tape and/or water blocking fillers must be considered during the design phase.
