Flat Flex Cables

Flat flex cables are used in a variety of applications. These cables typically consist of a flexible lamination of metalized polyester or nylon films which are laminated together and die-stamped to form a flat configuration. A band of conductive material, usually copper or aluminum, passes directly through the center of the flat flex cable, providing the electrical connection. The conductor may also be composed of individually insulated wires.

Flat flex cables are generally used for applications requiring flexibility and reliability. Common applications of flat flex cables include point-to-point wiring, closed loop wiring and assembly of circuit boards. The flexibility of the cable makes it suitable for a wide range of environments including extreme temperatures, high vibration, or wet or corrosive conditions. The electrical connection between the two points is also excellent, making flat flex cables suitable for long-lasting and efficient electrical connections.

Flat flex cables generally require soldering or crimping to make electrical connection. The wire or cable ferrule is commonly soldered or crimped to one of the conductors to establish an electrical connection. Some flat flex cable manufacturers offer a number of different cable laminations that are compatible with different combinations of soldering and crimping methods. Soldering and crimping allow for more reliable connections than other methods such as adhesive contacting.

Ribbon Jumper Cables

Ribbon jumper cables are used in computer and electronics applications. The cables consist of strands of copper wires woven together into a braid and then jacketed with a special insulation. The interweaving of the individual wires makes them highly flexible yet still capable of providing an uninterrupted path for electric current. A key advantage of ribbon cables is that they can be used for longer runs than flat flex cables without sacrificing transmission quality.

Ribbon jumper cables can be used in a variety of applications. They are used for both high-speed digital signals and for higher-frequency analogue signals. Common application areas include signal transmission for a variety of audio and video equipment, connectors for computer backplanes, power and control wiring for equipment racks, robot arms, and aerial broadcast systems.

The ribbon cable design makes it well-suited for a variety of environments. The insulation provides protection against moisture, dust, and corrosion and the flexibility of the cable allows for easy routing. The flexibility also allows for a variety of different terminations to be used with the cable which can include attachment of solderless connectors, mounted connectors, or soldered splices.

Ribbon jumper cables are usually terminated by soldering or crimping. The cable is cut to length and then the individual copper strands are soldered or crimped to the end connectors. This is done to ensure a permanent and reliable electrical connection. The crimping method is preferred as it requires less time and effort, but is not as reliable as soldering. Crimped connections can also come loose over time due to vibration or movement.
