Prototype Cable Assemblies
Prototype cable assemblies are the very important place in between PCB design ideas and interconnects. OurPCB brings prototype assemblies with PCB solutions to your tables.
Medical cable assemblies give you the vital electrical connections necessary for life-saving healthcare equipment. This is cardinal across hospitals, surgical centers, and equipment manufacturers. OurPCB provides custom medical cable assemblies that reach regulatory standards. This includes quality management systems and safety requirements for the medical industry.
Medical cable assembly is made up of tons of different insulated conductors, all together with special healthcare connectors. These custom medical cables send electrical signals, power, and data between medical devices. It does this while keeping biocompatibility standards needed for patient contact. Medical cable assemblies have the latest materials like thermoplastic elastomers (TPE). This is because they can handle autoclave sterilization cycles.
Custom medical cable assemblies support multiple communication standards including RS-485, RS-422, RS-423, and RS-232 protocols for data transmission between patient monitors and hospital information systems. Advanced assemblies feature modular LAN interfaces, serial cable connections, and fiber optic communication links for high-speed imaging data transfer in modern healthcare facilities.
All medical assemblies adhere to ISO 10993-1 biocompatibility standards, ensuring materials remain safe during direct patient contact. Compliance includes REACH and RoHS environmental regulations plus comprehensive insulation testing that meets IEC 60601-1 electrical and mechanical requirements.
Medical cable assemblies deliver essential performance advantages that directly impact patient care and device reliability in healthcare industry environments.
OurPCB combines advanced manufacturing capabilities with comprehensive regulatory expertise to deliver medical cable assemblies that exceed rigorous standards.
Medical cable assembly testing protocols validate electrical safety, mechanical durability, and biocompatibility through standardized procedures. Insulation resistance testing measures electrical isolation between conductors and ensures values exceed 10 megohms at 500 VDC as required by IEC 60601–1 standards to meet the stringent requirements of the medical field.
Biocompatibility evaluation follows ISO 10993-1 testing protocols including cytotoxicity assessment, sensitization studies, and irritation testing for materials in direct patient contact. Chemical resistance testing exposes cable assemblies to sterilization agents, cleaning solutions, and bodily fluids to verify material compatibility and prevent infection.
Medical device cables enable critical functionality across diverse healthcare applications requiring specialized performance characteristics and regulatory compliance for various types of medical equipment.
Application | Cable Requirements | Key Features |
---|---|---|
ECG/EKG Monitors | Biocompatible leads, EMI shielding | Patient contact safety, signal clarity |
Pulse Oximetry | Flexible cables, autoclave resistance | Sensor connectivity, sterilization compatibility |
Blood Pressure Monitors | Pressure-resistant harness | Durability under mechanical stress |
Advanced connector technologies enable reliable interconnect solutions between medical devices while maintaining biocompatibility and sterilization resistance. Medical-grade connector types include specialized designs for specific healthcare applications to ensure functionality and reliability.
Fiber optic connectors including LC, FC, ST, MU, MTP, and MT-RJ types support high-speed data transmission in modern medical equipment. These connectors feature medical-grade polishing and specialized ferrule components that maintain signal integrity during repetitive flexing in robotic surgical systems used in medical applications.
Advanced materials engineering enables medical cables to withstand harsh clinical environments while maintaining electrical and mechanical performance for a broad range of medical devices.
Material | Temperature Range | Chemical Resistance | Biocompatibility |
---|---|---|---|
TPE | -40 °C to +105 °C | Excellent | ISO 10993-1 |
FEP | -200 °C to +200 °C | Superior | USP Class VI |
Medical PVC | -40 °C to +85 °C | Good | ISO 10993-1 |
Conductor specifications include oxygen-free copper for optimal electrical conductivity and silver-plated copper for enhanced corrosion resistance in humid environments. Fiber optic cores utilize medical-grade glass fibers with specialized coatings that maintain signal integrity during repetitive flexing while supporting size and weight requirements for portable medical instrumentation.
