Cat8 cables: how can AI optimize the production process?

Cat8 cables are revolutionizing data transmission with speeds of up to 40 Gb per second, making them the go-to option for data centers and server rooms. These cables require sophisticated design, plus those used for IoT applications often have the power supply built right in and must withstand high temperatures.

Achieving these performances and speeds - four times more than a 6A cable - requires flawless cable production, with quality shielding, insulation, and sheathing.

Rosendahl Nextrom, with its expertise in insulation and sheathing technology, has taken it a step further by using artificial intelligence to fine-tune the foaming process for Cat8 cables. With a self-learning algorithm, the foaming process is continuously observed and adjusted to achieve the best results, leading to tighter tolerances and improved electrical properties. Additionally, the process controller's swift adjustments lead to a significant decrease in start-up scrap.
