Abstract:
Aspects of the subject disclosure may include, for example, a transmission medium having a core. A conductive layer forms an uninsulated outer surface of the transmission medium. The conductive layer is configured to impede accumulation of water to support propagation of first electromagnetic waves guided by the uninsulated outer surface. Other embodiments are disclosed.

Claim (Index 20):
A communication system comprising:\n a plurality of conductors stranded together to form a cable bundle, wherein the plurality of conductors is configured to support transmission of first guided electromagnetic waves along an outer surface of the cable bundle, wherein the first guided electromagnetic waves propagate via a plurality of guided wave modes; and a waveguide, on the interior of the cable bundle, wherein the waveguide is configured to support transmission of first guided electromagnetic waves within the interior of the cable bundle and wherein the first guided electromagnetic waves propagate via a plurality of guided wave modes at non-optical frequencies; means for transmitting data via the first electromagnetic waves along the outer surface of the cable bundle and the second electromagnetic waves along the waveguide within the interior of the cable bundle in accordance with a wave division multiplexing of the data.
