208-Core Ultrasound Probe Cable｜High-Flex Medical Cable｜Customizable Jacket Materials (PVC/TPU/TPEE/Silicone/PUR)

208-Core Ultrasound Probe Cable | High-Flex Medical Cable

The HOTTEN 208-Core Ultrasound Probe Cable is a high-density medical cable designed for ultrasound probe and medical imaging applications that require a large conductor count, flexible handling, stable signal transmission, and long-term mechanical reliability.

The cable uses a 208-core coaxial configuration with 44AWG conductors and supports customized jacket materials including PVC, TPU, TPEE, Silicone, and PUR according to application requirements. The construction can also be configured for molding and epoxy sealing during medical device integration.

Product Overview

The 208-Core Ultrasound Probe Cable is designed for high-channel-count ultrasound systems where cable density, flexibility, electrical performance, and mechanical integration must be considered together.

Its high-density construction integrates 208 individual coaxial cores within a compact cable structure. The cable can be customized according to conductor configuration, shielding requirements, cable diameter, jacket material, connector interface, and application conditions.

With a flexible construction and a stated bending durability of ≥1,000,000 cycles, the cable is suitable for ultrasound probe applications involving frequent handling and repeated cable movement.

Engineering & Procurement Considerations

Selecting a high-density ultrasound probe cable requires more than matching the number of cores. Engineers should consider the electrical, mechanical, and integration requirements of the complete ultrasound probe system.

Core Count and Signal Architecture

The 208-core configuration should be matched to the channel architecture of the target ultrasound probe and system. Buyers should define the required conductor allocation and signal assignment before cable production.

Flexibility and Bending Requirements

Ultrasound probes can require repeated manipulation and controlled cable routing. Cable construction should therefore be evaluated according to the required bending path, handling frequency, installation geometry, and expected service conditions.

The required bending performance should be specified clearly when requesting samples or quotations.

Jacket Material Selection

Jacket material affects the mechanical characteristics and handling behavior of the finished cable.

The final material should be selected according to the actual device requirements rather than by material name alone.

Cable Diameter

The cable has a stated sheath diameter of 8.3 ± 0.3 mm for the referenced configuration. Mechanical clearance around the probe, connector, cable exit, and routing path should be confirmed during design.

Electrical Requirements

For the referenced configuration, the cable is specified at approximately:

• 85Ω characteristic impedance

• 50 pF/m capacitance

• 30V rated voltage

• 80°C rated temperature

These parameters should be evaluated against the electrical requirements of the target ultrasound system before production.

Shielding and Signal Integrity

For dense ultrasound signal transmission, shielding configuration, conductor structure, termination, and grounding should be considered together.

Buyers should define any specific EMI, shielding, grounding, or signal-integrity requirements during engineering review.

Connector and Termination

The cable assembly should be matched to the actual connector interface used by the ultrasound probe and equipment.

Recommended information includes:

• Connector manufacturer and part number

• Mating connector

• Pinout

• Contact arrangement

• Termination method

• Connector orientation

• Available installation space

Molding and Sealing

Where the cable enters a probe housing or other medical device structure, molding and epoxy sealing requirements should be defined in advance.

The required sealing geometry, cable exit position, mechanical dimensions, and assembly process should be confirmed through drawings or samples.
