US Patent 9874298 Multi-layered stretchable hose

The systems and methods described herein relate to an improved stretchable hose apparatus which enables the transmission of high-throughput signals along several conductors within a conductor cable. In particular, the stretchable hose enables consistent high speed communications and high power transmission between a buoyant object and an optional underwater device in all weather conditions by permitting compression of the conductor cable in a first range of hose extensions and limiting elastic elongation of the conductor cable in a second greater range up to full hose extension.
