PVCJacket Lotus-shaped Foamed PFA Insulation Micro Coaxial Cable Medical Ultrasound Probe Cable 242X38AWG OD=11.5mm

Product Overview

The HOTTEN 242 Core 38AWG Medical Ultrasound Micro Coaxial Cable is designed for medical ultrasound probes, ultrasound transducers and diagnostic imaging equipment that require high-density signal connections within a controlled cable diameter.

This cable features a 242-core micro coaxial configuration, 38AWG fine conductors, lotus-shaped foamed PFA insulation and a PVC outer jacket. With a specified overall diameter of 11.5mm, the construction is intended for applications where conductor density, dielectric structure, cable dimensions and mechanical routing must be considered together.

The lotus-shaped foamed PFA insulation structure can help reduce effective dielectric loading compared with solid insulation designs, depending on the actual construction. Final capacitance and signal characteristics should be confirmed against the customer's electrical specifications.

HOTTEN supports customized ultrasound cable development according to customer drawings, cable samples and technical requirements.

Key Features

242-Core High-Density Micro Coaxial Structure

The 242-core configuration accommodates a large number of signal paths within a single cable. Channel arrangement, shielding and electrical requirements should be defined according to the ultrasound system design.

38AWG Fine Conductors

The 38AWG conductor configuration supports high-density cable construction for medical imaging and ultrasound probe applications.

Lotus-Shaped Foamed PFA Insulation

The foamed PFA insulation uses a lotus-shaped structure designed to reduce effective dielectric loading while maintaining a compact insulated conductor design. Actual capacitance and dielectric properties depend on the final cable construction and should be verified against project requirements.

PVC Outer Jacket

The PVC outer jacket provides an external protective layer for the cable. Jacket flexibility, color, surface characteristics and resistance requirements can be specified according to the target equipment and operating environment.

11.5mm Specified Outer Diameter

The 11.5mm overall diameter provides a clear dimensional reference for initial design evaluation. The required OD tolerance, bend radius and installation clearance should be confirmed before sample approval.

Custom Cable Development

HOTTEN supports cable configuration and manufacturing based on customer drawings, reference samples and application requirements. Connector termination or complete cable assembly can be discussed separately when required by the project.

Technical Specifications

Final electrical and mechanical specifications should be confirmed against the approved drawing, sample or technical data sheet before production.

Typical Applications

The 242-core micro coaxial cable can be considered for:

• Medical ultrasound probes

• Ultrasound transducer connections

• B-ultrasound diagnostic equipment

• High-channel-count ultrasound imaging systems

• Medical imaging equipment

• Customized diagnostic device interconnects

The final application suitability depends on the required electrical performance, cable dimensions, mechanical conditions and equipment interface.

Engineering & Procurement Considerations

When specifying a 242-core, 38AWG ultrasound cable, engineers should evaluate the internal cable construction and the finished cable dimensions as a complete system.

1. Capacitance and Electrical Performance

Foamed PFA insulation can affect the dielectric characteristics of the cable. Buyers should specify the required capacitance, tolerance and test conditions rather than relying on the insulation material name alone.

2. Core Configuration and Channel Consistency

A high-density cable requires clearly defined channel identification and consistent construction. The drawing should specify the required core arrangement, shielding connections and electrical acceptance criteria.

3. Overall Diameter and Routing Space

The specified 11.5mm OD should be checked against the available installation space. Customers should define the permissible OD tolerance, minimum bend radius, connector entry dimensions and routing conditions.

4. PVC Jacket Requirements

PVC jacket specifications should include relevant flexibility, color, surface and environmental requirements. Suitability should be evaluated against the actual use and handling conditions of the medical equipment.

5. Drawing, Sample and Quality Requirements

Before production, the buyer should provide the available cable drawing, reference sample, electrical targets, length, OD tolerance and acceptance criteria. Conductor material, insulation construction and shielding details should be confirmed for the exact SKU.
