Ethernet patch and trunk assemblies Cat5e through Cat8, USB assemblies 2.0 through USB-C, and industrial M12 connectors for harsh environments. Wire map and continuity tested on every unit.
A split pair in a Cat6 cable — where conductors from two different pairs are routed together — has correct continuity at DC and passes at 10 Mbps but fails at 100 Mbps because the pair balance is disrupted. A wire map test catches this; a simple continuity test does not. We run wire map on every Ethernet assembly because the failure mode is data-rate-dependent, not a binary pass/fail at DC.
For higher frequency requirements where coaxial cable is appropriate, see coaxial / RF / microwave. For EMI-immune optical solutions, see fiber optic & twinax. For power delivery over cable requiring high-current conductors, see power & battery cables.
