Tips

For best results, avoid sharp bends that exceed the cable's minimum bend radius and keep connectors clean. When bundling multiple slim cables, use Velcro straps instead of zip ties to prevent crushing the jacket. This cable is not intended for in-wall installation; for permanent runs, consider a solid-core cable.
