Amphenol CS Twist 'N' Flat Cables

Amphenol CS Twist 'N' Flat cables

The Twist ‘N’ Flat cable combines the time and cost savings of mass termination with the electrical performance of twisted pairs. The cable consists of stranded round conductors insulated with color coded PVC twisted into pairs and laminated between layers of PVC film to form a planar cable. The twist in adjacent pairs is reversed to reduce cable crosstalk even further. Standard cables alternate 18in. (45.7cm) long twisted pair sections with 2in. (5.1cm) flat sections in which the conductors are laminated in parallel.
