ABSTRACT OF THE DISCLOSURE The inventive cable comprises a plurality of axially-spaced flexible metal conductors which are each disposed within a layer of insulation and a jacket. A solid webbing interconnects the jackets, and, preferably, is integral with the jackets. The webbing has a thickness that is substantially less than the minor dimension of the cable, and the webbing and conductors preferably lie in a common plane. A polarity wing is provided that extends a predetermined distance from the jacket of one of the end conductors, and is preferably integral with the jacket. The polarity wing preferably has a thickness that is substantially less than the minor dimension of the cable. The polarity wing and webbing extend diametrically opposite of the end conductor so that the polarity wing lies in the same plane as the conductors and webbing. The polarity wing provides a key-like effect to ensure that the cable is properly meshed with the connector. In this regard, the polarity of the various conductors are preselected depending upon the system requirements so that the polarity can be readily determined based on the relative locations of the conductors.
