Page 27 Cicoil Offers Flat Cables for Wearable Electronics
Valencia, CA — Designed to provide long-term reliability and durability, Cicoil’s highly flexible flat data and
ment systems, mobile computing, and virtual reality products. The thin-profile and high-
strength wires provide a solution for confined spaces and can be used in compact, sensor-enabled devices. In addition, the cables function in rugged environments and are im- mune to shock, vibration, harsh weather, environmental hazards, sol- vents, submersion in water, and tem- perature extremes from –65 to +165°C (–85 to +329°F). Cicoil’s standard video and data
transmission cable offering includes Cat 5e — round and flat versions, Dual-Shielded Camera Link™, USB 2.0 and 3.0, IDC ribbon, flexible coax, HDMI, and firewire cables. These off-the-shelf cables are available for
quick delivery, and assemblies are of- fered in 3, 6 and 12 ft (0.9, 1.8 and 3.7 m) lengths, complete with connec- tors. Custom designs are also avail- able with minimal lead times. In ad- dition, the company offers low-fric- tion coatings, custom shape and tor- sion designs on request. The company’s patented, com-
puter-controlled extrusion process al- lows each individual component to be placed in a flat, parallel profile, which precisely controls the spacing of com- ponents, insulation thickness, and the overall cable shape. This ensures that each of the internal pairs of conduc- tors do not rub against each other and wear during operation, and also pro- vides EMI/RFI suppression. Halogen-free, the Flexx-Sil™
encased flat cable solutions are de- signed to provide high-speed video and data transfer, space and weight savings, and premium current carry- ing capacity. The cables are well- equipped to meet the continuous mo- tion and performance requirements of wearable technology applications. The company’s cables are UL
recognized, CE-conforming, RoHS and REACH-compliant, Class 1 Clean Room-rated, and are cured continuously, with no debris or mate- rial contamination, in an automated,
climate-controlled environment. Contact: Cicoil, 24960 Avenue
