EMAXX® High Speed Cable Assemblies
LOROM High Speed Cable Assembles comprise the use of unique world-class, state-of-the-art, in-house developed E-Maxx® Bulk Cable. Providing the highest level of signal integrity performance.
In particular, extremely low-insertion loss due to our unique skin-foam-skin, gas-injected dielectric technology as well as extreme control of balanced/unbalanced (mode conversion), providing significant performance advantages in increased system head-room/budget, as well as ease of cable management and smaller packaging densities.
Performance to the Maxx
The EMAXX® cable assemblIes employ new innovative PCB Technology designed specifically to address the complex issues of optimising signal integrity performance.
In particular, cross talk as well as launch condition between wire and PCB termination to optimise return loss and prevent/minimise ringing effects.
Our highly automated, controlled cable assembly manufacturing processes using the worlds first automatic soldering process, optimises the critical termination between wire and PCB, improving overall performance and removing the human element.
Automated final test and quality systems assure high-quality cable assemblies, conforming to the high-speed electrical performance requirements in industry specifications.
Excellence of mechanical design exceeds the stringent mechanical interface requirements as defined by applicable industry standards.
