Cicoil's patented computer-controlled extrusion process allows each individual component to be placed in a flat parallel profile, precisely controlling the spacing of each component, insulation thickness and the overall cable shape. This ensures that each of the internal pairs or conductors do not rub against each other, wear during operation and provide optimum EMI/RFI suppression.



The halogen-free, Flexx-Sil™ Encased Flat Cable Solutions are designed to provide high speed video and data transfer, weight & space savings and premium current carrying capacity. The cables are ideal to meet the continuous motion and performance requirements of wearable technology applications.



Cicoil's Data & Video Transmission Cables are UL Recognized, CE Conforming, RoHS & REACH Compliant, Class 1 Clean Room Rated and are cured continuously, with no debris or material contamination in an automated, climate controlled environment.
