Nexans medical microcables and composite cables allow OEMs to build more convenience and intelligence into all investigative, diagnostic and therapeutic equipment. Physicians and patients worldwide appreciate their safety, comfort and discretion.

For large imaging systems (radiography, magnetic resonance imaging/MRI, computer tomography, and nuclear camera/scanners) Nexans manufactures flexible composite cables with different solutions inside, from micro-coax to a complete set of plastic fiber-optic cables, twisted pairs and tubes.

We meet your special needs and applications through competitive and custom designs to reduce your development time and increase performance.  Beyond the functionality, NEWSENSE™ cables are designed to match with all your requirements in term of biocompatibility, sterilizability and standard approvals (ISO10993, FDA, UL, …).

We have dedicated a building in our aerospace plant to manufacture medical microcables in a “clean room” environment. 50 years of aerospace R&D and quality-control expertise are drawn on for the benefit of the healthcare industry!

Simply essential

X-Ray systems operate in noisy electronic environment such as operating rooms where electromagnetic resistance is essential for flawless performances. Nexans develops electro magnetically compatible cables that ensure the proper functioning of the imaging systems to deliver high quality images. Nexans also provides sophisticated simulation tools for the design and optimization of cables used in your equipment.

Healthcare technology is growing and endoscopy is now able to give doctors enhanced visual information.
Nexans can provide innovation, miniaturization and lightness to offer patient more comfort. In the same time, Nexans teams  propose customized solutions to meet your needs regarding mechanical strength, electromagnetic immunity, biocompatibility, sterilization and flexibility for better handling.

Magnetic Resonance Interference

The aging of population and  the growing demand for early diagnostic for cost reason is increasing the number of non invasive procedures by MRI to visualize in 2D or 3D internal organs, tissues and joints.

High cost equipments  and safety requirements for patients require reliable high-tech cables and harnesses

Ultrasounds equipment

Healthcare technology is continuing to develop, with ultrasound equipment now able to provide enriched visual information. 3D views, colors and assisted examinations require more efficient cables. Nexans can provide innovation and miniaturization, ranging from 2 to 528 micro-coaxial cables in the same ultrasound cable. This allows OEMs to increase the amount of data transmitted via space-saving cables..

Patented dielectric technology

Multi-channel dielectric that provides enhanced performances with regard to insertion loss, low capacitance and propagation speed and  make easy stripping for termination and facilitate handling by size and weight reduction.

Electroencephalography, Electrocardiogram, Magnetoencephalography

Healthcare technology is growing and information in a miniaturized portable device is increasingly in demand. Moreover, biocompatibility has now become a major requirement leading to the development of more efficient special cables. Nexans can provide innovation on compound and miniaturization to offer a wide portfolio for EEG/ECG/MEG.
