Custom Cable Solutions

Although cables are very unlikely to be the most expensive cost item in your design, our custom services can significantly improve your installation and management costs and time-to-market.

In many computer and electronic systems, from point-of-sale to medical devices to manufacturing systems, they require unique or legacy cabling and connectivity methods for data and power exchange between components within. A few typical examples include cables with:

  • Distinctive connector pinouts
  • Angled connectors
  • Lengths down to specific inches or centimeters
  • Specific number of connectors daisy-chained and specific length between these connectors
  • Unique Pantone color code

These required cables are hard to find or non-existent in the marketplace. It would be very costly if manufacturers choose to develop and produce them in house.

At Pactech, our R&D team with 20+ years of experience takes through each of these customers from initial concept to prototyping to mass production through our proven Design Process. We consult and design, not just manufacture. Our solutions for your needs are one of its kind.

 

These are just a few examples of our custom cable services. Please call us to discuss your projects.
