Flat Ribbon Cable Manufacturers

Precision-Engineered Flat Ribbon Cables for Electronics, Industrial Automation, and Aerospace

High-Performance Flat Ribbon Cables Built for Demanding Applications

As a trusted name among flat ribbon cable manufacturers, Proterial Cable America delivers a comprehensive range of flat ribbon cables engineered to meet or exceed UL and CSA standards. Our flat ribbon solutions are available in multiple gauges, conductor counts, and termination options. They are built with rounded-edge construction for exceptional durability and flexibility, reducing the risk of damage during installation. With a high tolerance for extreme temperatures and available in standard lengths of 100′ and 500′, these cables are designed for tight and confined spaces, making them ideal for precision applications in industrial automation, electronic devices, and other compact systems where space and performance matter.

PRODUCTS

Unshielded Flat Ribbon Cable

Ideal for areas with minimal electromagnetic interference (EMI), our unshielded ribbon cables ensure reliable data transmission in devices like computers, printers, and control panels. They support neat and organized wiring solutions, without compromising on performance.

FEATURED PRODUCT

Shielded Flat Ribbon Cable

Our shielded flat ribbon cables provide superior protection against EMI in high-interference environments such as industrial automation, medical equipment, or aerospace. Built with a dual-drain wire design, these cables deliver reliable grounding and enhanced protection even when wires are laid parallel in systems with limited space.

Frequently Asked Questions

Shielded flat ribbon cables provide a protective layer that guards against electromagnetic interference (EMI), making them ideal for high-interference environments like aerospace, medical devices, and industrial automation. These cables ensure signal integrity, reduce crosstalk, and are suitable for data-heavy systems.

In contrast, unshielded flat ribbon cables are better for low-EMI settings such as automobiles and consumer electronics. These cables are more flexible, easily routed, and take up less space, making them ideal for limited space and compact equipment needs.

Yes. The flat plane structure of ribbon cables simplifies cable organization. Unlike round cables, flat cable assembly options can be stacked, routed cleanly through confined spaces, and offer better airflow for cooling. One ribbon cable can replace multiple individual wires, reducing wiring mess and helping with layout spacing on boards and panels.

Absolutely. Our industrial flat ribbon cable is manufactured with tinned copper, which is known for its corrosion-resistant properties. These cables perform in extreme conditions—enduring temperatures up to 105°C, making them ideal for industries like aerospace and robotics, where reliability is critical.
Yes, all of our military-grade flat ribbon cables comply with industry standards like UL 2651 and RoHS, making them safe for use in environments with strict regulations, including aerospace and in medical devices. These cables are designed to operate safely even in harsh conditions.

Unshielded

Consumer Electronics: Great for internal connections in computers, printers, and home electronics where signal integrity and space are critical, as they are often easily routed through confined spaces.

Industrial Automation: Organize complex wiring within control systems, reducing clutter and ensuring efficiency.

Automotive Electronics: Space-saving and flexible, ideal for tight control modules and in-vehicle systems.

Shielded

Aerospace & Avionics: EMI shielding ensures data integrity in communication systems and control units.

Medical Devices: Critical for maintaining signal accuracy in sensitive, life-saving equipment and systems with strict application requirements.

Robotics & Automation: Ideal where many wires run parallel, and EMI shielding prevents signal loss across components.
