Imaging catheters have gained significant usage in various therapeutic applications due to their proven ability to reduce procedure times and enhance treatment outcomes. Consequently, the escalating demand for these devices has necessitated advancements in imaging performance. In this webinar, you will hear about the connector platform solution TE has designed for catheter development applications as well as our approach, application knowledge, and engineering expertise in developing components for imaging catheters.
Cables & Cable Assemblies
TE aims to make interventional, surgical and diagnostics procedures safer, more accurate and precise. We do this by producing lightweight cable assemblies that offer high visual clarity and robust data signals that have applications from surgical systems to ultrasound.
Enabling advanced visualization systems. TE specializes in cable designs that enable high speed transmission of imaging data, while incorporating various functionalities such as illumination and electrical transmission into a flexible and reliable product component. We integrate copper and fiber connectivity into our cables, producing highly flexible, yet rugged cables for the operating room. Small wire densities enable 4k imaging without bulky cable sizes and all our cables are optimized for repeated sterilization and durability. We’ll work with you to custom design the right cable for your application, striking the right balance between durability, weight and flexibility.

Technical Resources
How do you take a cable from the electrical appliances field and make it suitable for a medical device? Inspiration can come from anywhere, and at TE, our engineers worked on both the electrical and mechanical applications to create high speed cables, robust and flexible enough for medical devices. Listen to Principal Development Engineer Eugene Mayeskiy, as he discusses the electrical characterization of high speed interconnects, from minimizing crosstalk to market trends.
According to a 2018 report issued by the Society of Diagnostic Medical Sonography, a staggering 90% of clinical sonographers experience symptoms of musculoskeletal disorders. Many of the probes, connectors and cables used by clinical sonographers are bulky and heavy in nature, a potential factor contributing to these instances of work-related musculoskeletal disorders. At TE Connectivity, our engineers believe that you don’t need a heavy, bulky imaging cable to provide high-quality reliable performance. During this webinar, Eugene Mayevskiy Principle Engineer will discuss COMFORT NX, TE's newest ergonomic cable design for medical ultrasound imaging.
