Your system should be built around performance, not
around your cables.
The 3M Internal Twin Axial Ribbon Cable SL8800 Series is a revolutionary ultra
low-profile, high-speed, high signal density cable. 3M offers a broad line of available
pair counts to cover many of the latest differential pair cable applications.
3M SL8800 Series Cable is an optimal solution for space-constrained systems. This cable is
unjacketed, extremely thin and can even be folded with minimal loss or performance impact.
SL8000 Series Cable can route along the sides of cabinets and through narrow openings in
densely packaged equipment. Some high density offerings sacrifice performance to achieve
density. Flex circuits are often used for tight packaging requirements, but flex circuitry can be
cost prohibitive and can have limited bandwidth in some applications. Long high-speed runs
over FR4 materials may require redrive chips adding cost and complexity to your system.
SL8800 Series Cable is being installed in some of today’s most powerful enterprise and high-
performance computing systems to address both performance and packaging.
No compromises
The SL8800 Series Cable is not just for densely packaged systems. The electrical
performance places this cable in an elite category for skew control, low attenuation and
high bandwidth. Even if your system does not require low-profile cable, the SL8800 Series
Cable still provides you with a quality high performance cable for your high-speed signal
requirements.
SL8800 Series Cable is a longitudinally shielded cable construction made to exacting
tolerances. The cable suffers little to no resonance or “suck out,” where traditionally
spiral wrapped twin axial cables exhibit an enormous loss of signal at a particular range
of frequency. The cable is also low skew, and the ribbon construction allows customers
to further control any skew that can sometimes be introduced when trying to manage
individual channels. This is especially critical at speeds beyond 10 Gbps. High-speed
applications continue to demand more performance out of the cables, and the SL8800 Series
Cable is designed to deliver that performance.
As signal speeds continue to increase, cable can improve but the termination can still
be a weak point. The SL8800 Series Cable standard ribbon format supports high
performance termination, repeatability, and a reduced possibility for pinout error. When
stripped in parallel, and then applied in parallel, each channel results in an identical
termination length. Control and placement of individual channels is not required,
eliminating the variation in performance and rework due to incorrect placement. This
simultaneous processing can also yield manufacturing efficiency benefits.

Twin Axial Cable SL8800 Series exhibits low

The 3M
™
Twin Axial Cable SL8800 Series is ideally suited for paddle card terminated cable assemblies, such as mini serial attached
SCSI (miniSAS) and similar SFF 8087 type cable assemblies, including a four-pair, with four sidebands on the side version,
SL8802/08-XXXXXX. When laid side-by-side, this cable can be used in 8x channel 68-position SFF 8087 applications, with sidebands.
The two-pair cable can benefit your implementation of the new Serial Attached SCSI (SAS) high-density internal assemblies,
SFF XXXX, combining performance, density and flexibility. The cable has been functionally tested in SAS 2.0 applications and passes
those requirements in a 6 Gbps environment. Applications to 10 Gbps and beyond can be implemented with SL8800 Series Cable,
subject to length and attenuation requirements. 3M will continue to support you and your system requirements as bandwidth demands
increase. Look for future versions of 3M high-speed cable in other wire gauges, form factors and performance.
Cables should not be a design constraint. Make them a design enabler.
