Hello All,

Does anyone have a link or hint regarding shielded CAT-5 which is as
flexible as the better non-shielded patch cables?

Regular shielded is quite stiff. During EMC we discovered that a cable
inside a unit needs to be shielded and it has to go through a harness that
will be bent back and forth whenever a drawer mechanism opens. Not every
minute or so, just once in a while. It just can't be too stiff.

Try these.

www.igus.com

Both have continuous flex CAT5 cabling.

A lot of engineering is based on finding a solution NOW. Rather than
analyzing everything to death (the academic approach). Let us know
what the results are.

I will. But it's a client so I won't know when they will get around to
this part of the project.
