Flat Cables are wire-and-cable products in which multiple conductors are arranged in a flat, parallel geometry to form a low-profile interconnection. This structure helps organize multiple signal or power lines into a single, uniform cable assembly.
Within electronic systems, flat cables are commonly used as internal wiring to provide orderly routing and consistent conductor spacing. They are available in various constructions and materials to meet different electrical and mechanical interconnect requirements.
