With the rapid development of intelligent vehicle technology, the central control screen has long become the core module of in-car interaction. In order to ensure high-definition images, synchronized audio and video, and stable transmission of multiple information, car manufacturers are increasingly inclined to use extremely thin coaxial cables (micro coaxial cable) for the selection of internal signal transmission harnesses in the central control screen. So, what makes the extremely thin coaxial cable bundle the first choice for the central control screen? This article will analyze this in detail and introduce a high-performance connector - I-PEX 20373-R40T-06, as well as a professional ultra-thin coaxial cable harness customization solution.

What is a micro coaxial cable?
Extremely thin coaxial cables are composed of inner conductor, insulating layer, shielding layer, and outer sheath, and are a type of high-frequency transmission line. Their characteristics include extremely thin wire diameter, excellent shielding performance, and low signal loss, and they are widely used in scenarios with high requirements for signal stability, such as high-definition displays, camera modules, vehicle audio and video systems, and medical equipment. In the application of car central control screens, as the resolution upgrades from 720P, 1080P to 4K, even 8K, higher requirements are placed on the transmission speed of the signal cable束, EMI anti-interference capability, flexibility, and spatial adaptability. Standard parallel wires and standard coaxial cables are difficult to meet these demands, while micro coaxial cables have significant advantages:
High-speed transmission: supports data rates above 20Gbps.
Strong anti-interference: Excellent electromagnetic interference (EMI) protection capabilities.
Flexible wiring: Suitable for layout in narrow vehicle spaces.
Lightweight design: in line with the trend of automotive lightweighting.
