High-Flex Ethernet & Power Hybrid Cable | OEM & Custom Cable Manufacturer
The HF-EP2000 series is a high-flex ethernet & power hybrid cable designed for continuous motion systems, robotic arms, and drag chain applications. Its dual-core hybrid structure supports simultaneous Ethernet data and power transmission through repeated bending, while the durable PUR/TPE jacket helps resist oil, abrasion, and mechanical wear. As an OEM & custom cable manufacturer, we build to your drawing or ours — with full engineering support.
Key Benefits:
✅ High flexibility for 10 million+ bending cycles in continuous motion
✅ 2-in-1 design combining Ethernet data and power in a single cable
✅ OEM & custom builds to your AWG, connector, and jacket specification
✅ UL/CE certified for robotic arms, drag chains, and automation systems
High-Flex Ethernet & Power Hybrid Cable | OEM & Custom Cable Manufacturer
2-in-1 Data & Power Solution, Custom-Built to Your Equipment Specifications
As a direct OEM & custom cable manufacturer, we design and produce the High-Flex Ethernet & Power Hybrid Cable — a combined data-and-power transmission solution engineered for continuous flexing, drag chain movement, and harsh industrial environments. Unlike catalog-only suppliers, we build to project-specific AWG, connector, and jacket requirements, backed by in-house testing and UL/CE certification.

Where This Cable Is Used
Our hybrid cable is deployed across industries where machinery moves continuously and reliability under stress is non-negotiable:
Robotics & Automated Arms
Multi-axis joints require cables that flex thousands of times per day without conductor fatigue. This high-flex ethernet and power hybrid cable maintains signal integrity through millions of articulation cycles.
Drag Chain & Cable Carrier Systems
In CNC machines and packaging lines, cables inside drag chains face constant reciprocating motion. Our combo cable’s flex-rated construction is specifically validated for this use case.
AGVs & Mobile Automation Platforms
Combined power and network wiring reduces cable count and weight — a key advantage for autonomous guided vehicles and mobile robotics.
Semiconductor & Cleanroom Equipment
Low-outgassing jacket options are available for cleanroom-compatible manufacturing environments.
Factory Automation & PLC Wiring
Where panel space is limited, this hybrid ethernet power cable consolidates two wiring runs into one, simplifying cable management in control cabinets.

Technical Construction
Core Design
The cable core pairs twisted Ethernet conductors with dedicated power cores under a unified shielding layer, wrapped in a high-flex outer jacket. This layered structure is what separates a true flex-rated hybrid cable from standard industrial ethernet cable or power cable products that aren’t built for repeated motion.
Material & Performance Details
- Jacket: PUR or TPE compound, resistant to oil, coolant, and surface abrasion common on factory floors
- Conductors: stranded copper, gauge selectable per current load requirements
- Data lines: Cat5e/Cat6-compliant twisted pairs for stable network throughput
- Shielding: dual-layer (braid + foil) to prevent crosstalk between power and data circuits
- Flex validation: cycle-tested in-house on reciprocating bend-test rigs before certification
