Demand in China
The demand for coaxial cables applied to base stations and indoor environments in China
from 2012 to 2020 is projected to increase at a CAGR of 14.8% in volume.
There is huge potential in the development of mobile communications network
infrastructures and the radio-frequency cable and flexible cable industry, which can in
turn be expected to bring sustainable demand for coaxial cables. The demand for coaxial
cables applied to base stations and indoor environments in China from 2012 to 2020 is
projected to increase at a CAGR of 14.8% in volume.
This growth rate is lower than the 34.5% CAGR from 2006 to 2012, because of the
initial substantial investment in the 3G network made from 2006 to 2009 as well as the
low base effect. We would also like to point out that growth in terms of value was higher,
and will continue to be so. Increase in average selling price of RF coaxial cables was
broadly in line with the inflation in China over the past three years.

overall market which is about 7%.
Future with Coaxial Cable
Coaxial cable truly has helped enable the mobile network.
Nevertheless, as 4G rollouts proceed, wireless service
providers, equipment manufacturers and tower operators
begin to worry. Wireless service providers are concerned
about the reliability of coverage and network bandwidth to
maintain the trust of their mobile subscribers. Equipment
manufacturers are required to match the expected
technology benefits with the outcome of their radio
equipment.
Tower operators are apprehensive because there are
physical constraints to structural upgrades in the field and
the number of operators that towers can support. Here is
Micro Coaxial Cable | 13
where the network infrastructure enters the game. Traditionally, coaxial cables have been
the right fit for radio frequency signal transmission. However, to sustain this dynamic
network, one starts to reconsider the traditional method.
Implications for the Cable Industry
Relatively stable prices for 2013 would be welcomed by the cable industry and would
reduce the risks that volatile copper prices can leave cable manufacturers open to.
If, as is forecast, the copper price then starts to fall the cable industry will need to manage
its business to limit any potential losses associated with holding high priced stocks, and it
will also need to be prepared for falling turnover by value. On the plus side lower prices
will reduce the cost of raw material and work in progress stocks which should ease some
of the pressure on less well capitalized companies. A lower copper price may also reduce
interest in looking at alternatives to copper.

Micro Coaxial Cable Assembly – Automobile Industry
Automotive cable assemblies are the largest end-use equipment market for cable
assemblies. Accounting for more than 25% of all cable assemblies built, automotive
cable assembles can be found in every region of the world, with production location and
type of assembly tied to the vehicle brand and final vehicle assembly location.
Growing exponentially with the increased electronic content in vehicles, automotive
cable assemblies are generally built to a number of governmental and industry standards.
These standards include USCAR, SAE, EC, or JASO, and often involve connector
design/choice, cable choice, and even terminating method.
Although many assemblies are direct connector-to-connector types, many automotive
cable assemblies incorporate multiple connectors, as well as various cable types.
The Global Automotive cable assembly market to grow at a CAGR of 6.8 percent in
terms of revenue over the period 2011-2015. One of the key factors for this growth is the
increasing demand for electric vehicles.
The Global Automotive cable assembly market has also been witnessing the increasing
demand for hybrid vehicles during the forecast period. However, the increasing financial
constraints are acting as a barrier to the market growth.
Key vendors dominating this market space include Yazaki Corp., Sumitomo Electric
Industries Ltd., Delphi Automotive plc, and Leoni AG. Other vendors include report Lear
Corp., Furukawa Electric Co. Ltd., Kyungshin Corp., PKC Group plc, and Kromberg and
Schubert GmbH.
In H2 2008, the number of orders obtained by automobile manufacturers shrunk
dramatically. In 2009, optimistic expectation and strong Chinese market made
automakers get more orders.
As the increasing electronics get applied to the automobile, and the population of hybrid
vehicles increases, automotive cable assembly market grows steadily, and the market
value was US$32 billion in 2012.
Micro Coaxial Cable | 16
Market Shares of World’s Major Manufacturers of Automotive cable assembly
Global automotive cable assembly market is monopolized by large manufacturers, the
top four of which hold more than 75% market shares. All the manufacturers except
Delphi are Japanese enterprises.
The manufacturers of automotive cable assembly must have production experience and
cost control ability. Yazaki, Sumitomo, Leoni, Furukawa, Fujikura, Coroplast and Comba
are the manufacturers starting from wire and cable business.
Most of these manufacturers own upstream mining resources. Sumitomo and Furukawa
have their own copper mines and they do quite well in cost control. Traditional auto parts
makers do not have many advantages in wire harness, so Valeo sold cable assembly
business to Leoni.
Micro Coaxial Cable | 17
Secondly, the manufacturers of automotive cable assembly should have technical
expertise in automotive connectors. Fujikura boasts of the state-of-the-art connector
technologies; so do Yazaki and Sumitomo.
Hybrid and electric vehicles, as well as the implementation of safety and infotainment
options, including GPS systems, electronically-controlled transmissions, rear seat video
and game consoles, and multiple zone climate controls, have created new and expanded
opportunities for automotive cable assemblies during the last decade. These changes,
coupled with the automotive manufacturers desire to reduce size and weight and, in turn,
increase fuel economy, will also spark future automotive cable assembly designs,
allowing the automotive cable assembly market to remain the largest cable assembly
sector for years to come.
Impact on the Cable Assembly Industry
The worldwide market share for automotive cable assemblies was 3.6% in 2012.
 Europe has had two quarters of GDP contraction in 2012. It looks likely that this
recession will continue impacting all market sectors in Europe. Year-to-date, the
interconnect industry is down more than 10% in Europe. Europe will recover this
interconnect sales decline and grow automotive sales by 3.2% compound
annual growth rate over the next five years.
 China and Asia Pacific will make up for the production volume drop in Europe,
so the overall interconnect market and number of vehicles produced will grow. By
2016, China and Asia Pacific will have combined interconnect sales equaling
27% of the global market and 43% of the vehicles produced; thus, the
interconnect content per vehicle will be lower.
 The growth in electronic/electrical content in light vehicles is growing. Basic
systems, such as automatic door locks, keyless entry, side airbags, and navigation
systems, have migrated from high-end vehicles down to the middle-level cars and
below. Collision avoidance systems, back-up cameras, and stability control
systems are following the same path. Over the next five years, 25% of the growth
in interconnect sales to the automotive market will come from the increasing
content.
The worldwide market value for automotive cable assemblies in 2012 is $33.6 billion.
The majority of the growth will be in China, Asia Pacific, and North America.

AVN system and AVN Cable Assembly)
The global car navigation market size is projected to be 51 million units in 2015.
Car navigation systems are rapidly becoming highly advanced information and
communication terminals offering a range of new services for car users. As CAR AVN
falls into automotive electronics segments, the global market for Automotive
Electronics, estimated at US$191.3 billion in 2013 and forecast to be US$204.6 billion
in 2014, is further projected to reach US$314.4 billion by 2020, thereby maintaining a
CAGR of 7.3% between 2012 and 2020.
OEM Automotive Electronics, accounting for an estimated share of 86.3% in 2013
equating to US$165.2 billion in the overall Automotive Electronics market, is forecast
at US$177.2 billion in 2014 and expected to register a 2012-2020 CAGR of 7.6% in
reaching a projected US$277.1 billion by 2020.
The major trends driving demand for increased penetration of electronics in automobiles
include regulatory mandates for improving fuel economy and stringent emission
standards as well as requirements for advanced safety systems, consumer demand for

vehicles. Environmental issues and highly stringent government regulations have been
forcing auto OEMs to accord greater importance to fuel efficiency.
AVN System – Global Market Status
The global car navigation market size is projected to be 51 million units in 2015.
Electronic car navigation systems (CNS) have a large and growing market worldwide,
especially in Japan.
Japan, flowed by United States is the principle global supplier of AVN systems, accounts
the largest market share, United States represents the second in market share and rest of
the share is largely accounted by European countries.
Japanese cities have grown dramatically over many centuries, and are still growing. In
Japanese car navigation system market, the sales of low-priced AVN have been growing
and they are expected to continue to grow in the future. On the other hand, in overseas
Micro Coaxial Cable | 19
car navigation system market, the demands for AVN to be installed neatly and smartly
have been increased.
In the current Japanese market, the sales of car navigation system have been increasing.
Its prices are lowering with the spread of PND (Personal Navigation Device), and the car
navigation system is being clearly polarized between the PND and AVN (installed-type-
all-in-one navigation).Also in the AVN, the demand has been shifted to low-priced model
of 100,000 yen or less.
Transition in Japanese Car Navigation Market (Sales Volume)
Micro Coaxial Cable | 20
In the Market outside Japan, the PND (Personal Navigation Device) has led the car
navigation system market and its sales have been significantly increasing. Under this
influence, the sale of AVN also has been steadily increasing and a certain size of the
AVN market has been established. The AVN has a great future potential.
Transition in Overseas AVN Market (Sales Volume)
Micro Coaxial Cable | 21
Because of the above mentioned situation, see the AVN is in high demand Worldwide.
However, there is a major challenge of “ price reduction” in both the PND and AVN, and
if focusing on more rapid products development, there is a need to develop a platform for
Global expansion.
The global number of navigation shipments across all form factors including in-dash,
portable, and mobile navigation devices is expected to grow from more than 100 million
in 2010 to 283 million in 2015.
Worldwide demand for car navigation system increased 11.7% year on year to 10.94
million units. In Japan, shipment increased on the back of a rebound in auto production
and an expansion in consumer car navigation system lineups sold on the market. In the
U.S the shipment were up on strong automobile sales. However in Europe, shipment
increased only slightly due to lackluster automobile sales as regional economic
conditions remained weak.

economies.
AVN Cable Assembly for CARs
Global Cable Assembly Market has projected five-year compound annual growth rate of
8.0 percent, the industry value will grow to $130,693 million by 2014.
Various components of a car need electrical power, which must all be connected to the
battery through the use of cable assemblies. The cables that are used are often used are
expected to last a long time and be able to last through a range of environmental
conditions – meaning the cable selection is also important. More often than not, a car will
use colour coded cables to allow them to gain quick diagnostics and replacement within
the car.
When the cable assembly is used sufficiently, it will ensure that operations go a lot
smoother than it would do without the use of an efficient cable assembly. Cable
assemblies are essential for devices powered by electricity, with common example being
an automobile (car).
The specific design of a cable assembly depends upon its use and the needs of the user.
Overall, there are usually industry specifications for each of the major types of use, such
as for airplanes or cars.
The ever-increasing demand for on-board technology and connectivity may be the market
driver for vehicle purchases in the very near future rather than the vehicle brand name.
Current estimates are that as much as 35% of the total vehicle cost is the in-car
electronics and the content continues to grow.

driving, are hard to beat.
Furthermore, TechniSat leading quality producer in the fields of LCD TV sets, car
communications – car radios and navigation systems – as well as PC components, also
secure a significant market share in Germany. The three major German automotive
audio video manufacturers — Becker, Blaupunkt and Continental (Siemens VDO) almost
monopolize the German market.
The European Market
The European market for car navigation systems has been slow to develop: the
aftermarket has been virtually non-existent until recently. Only in the last decade, the
OEM market finally begun to develop significantly. Strategy Analytics expects that
Germany will remain the largest market in Europe for factory-fitted navigation systems,
followed by the UK and France.
Germany: Demand grows for CD-less audio, connected navigation and larger in-car
displays
In the overall market for in-car multimedia, demand in the main category of portable
satellite navigation devices fell by 10% at the start of 2011. Particularly positive results
were generated in the niche for multimedia monitors that are permanent in-car fixtures.
Micro Coaxial Cable | 26
Special double DIN navigation devices recorded growth of 4%, which was primarily
attributable to products that can be easily integrated with the dashboard and where the
technical connections are tailored to the respective car manufacturer. One in three
upgrade devices are now customized for specific makes of car. This new product
category is experiencing a real boom at present, recording a sales increase of 58%.
Consumers are willing to spend more on these high-end devices, with average
expenditure of around EUR 1,060. Willingness to spend is clearly high for new products
and recognizable brand value, particularly when upgrade devices are more attractively
priced than the original equipment from car manufacturers, while offering the same or
better technical functions.
A comparable development emerges at the high-end of the portable navigation devices
(PND) segment. An increase of 70% was recorded for devices that provide up-to-date
information such as traffic, flight and weather reports on the move or that have a
Google search function. The share of “connected PNDs” in overall portable navigation
devices sales therefore increased from 5% to 10%.
Rising popularity is also evident for computer graphics navigation support providing
photographic images of motorway junctions, sights of interests, landscapes and cities. As
a result, screens are increasing in size, and growth is evident in the segment with 5 inch
displays in particular.

5. Applicability of Micro Coaxial Cable Assembly or High Speed Cable
Assembly in AVN system
Yes, Micro coaxial cable assembly is applicable in AVN system (Through primary
research).
Method for the applicability of Micro Coaxial Cable Assembly or High Speed Cable
Assembly in AVN system
Micro Coaxial cable assemblies are used in a variety of products serving many different
markets. It is used to carry higher frequency signals from point A to point B with
minimal signal loss and degradation. Cables and interconnect systems are getting smaller,
and overall volume is increasing. The most common applications include antenna
cabling, cable TV equipment interconnects and automotive applications.
In automobiles, for example, more and more systems (satellite radio, AM/FM radio, GPS,
cell phones, etc.) are being packed into extremely tight spaces. This increased density of
signal carrying cables makes coaxial cable an obvious choice to reduce or eliminate
signal interference.
OEMs tend to outsource coaxial cable assemblies since they are considered a commodity
and not part of their core business. Increasingly, cable and connector manufacturers are
producing and providing finished cable assemblies to the OEMs. Since they manufacture
the cable and connectors, these manufacturers have a cost advantage over subcontractors
who must purchase the components on the outside.
A coaxial connector and a method for assembling a coaxial connector which can enhance
work efficiency and can simplify equipment required for the assembling. The coaxial
connector is assembled by
 a first process for forming an insulator assembly
 a second process for setting the insulator assembly to an outer conductor terminal
via the upper-side opening in the terminal from the direction intersecting the
terminal axis perpendicularly
a third process for holding the insulator of the insulator assembly by caulking a pair of
caulking pieces for holding the insulator, and for connecting and fixing the insulator
Micro Coaxial Cable | 28
assembly with a coaxial cable by caulking a pair of caulking pieces for braid connection
and a pair of caulking pieces for fixing a sheath, respectively.
Methods of Applicability – Micro Coaxial cable assembly
There are a myriad of connector types on the market, even greater than the number of
different cable types that are available. Some connector designs require additional
processing steps, such as folding back the braided shield, tinning the center conductor,
etc. Older connector types typically have many parts including the rubber boot, crimp
ring, connector body, center contact and connector housing.
Newer connector types are being introduced which have fewer parts, sometimes only a
single part. For example, the Radiall R3C connector is available on reel and can be
applied in a crimping press in one operation. These one-piece connectors lend themselves
to automatic assembly methods. The trend is toward fewer connector parts, making it
easier for both manual and automatic assembly methods.
Micro Coaxial Cable | 29
Regardless of where coaxial cable assemblies are produced, there is a benefit to using
partial or fully automatic assembly methods as opposed to strictly manual methods. For
smaller batches and frequent changeovers, producing cable assemblies in a semi-
automatic work cell is usually more cost effective. Once the production volume increases
above 50,000 cable assemblies per month for a given assembly, it makes sense to invest
in a fully automatic assembly system.
A fully automatic assembly system can be equipped with quality monitoring equipment
such as non-destructive pull testers, electrical testers, etc. to ensure that all products is
fully tested as it is built. A good/bad sorting station and destructive piece cutter can be
added to cut the ends off of any cable assembly that fails any of the quality tests.
The use of coaxial cable assemblies continues to increase. Coaxial cable assemblies can
be produced using hand tools or using fully automatic equipment with varying levels of
automation in between. The level of automation employed usually depends on the typical
batch sizes being produced. Low volume, high mix jobs lend themselves to semi-
automatic work cell type assembly, and high volume, low mix jobs are best done on fully
automatic systems.
Newer connector types have fewer parts. Fewer parts to assemble makes it easier and less
expensive to automate the process. This results in lower automation costs and shorter
production cycle times than was possible with older multi-part connectors. The higher the
level of automation, the easier it will be to maintain consistent high quality. Of course,
it's possible to manually assemble a coaxial cable assembly but automation is the key to
quality.

In terms of applications, the video distribution segment is expected to remain the fastest
growing segment for the North America coaxial cables market. This segment is expected
to grow at a CAGR of 7.5% through the estimated period of 2012 - 2018.
The growth of this segment is primarily attributed to growing popularity of Video-on-
Demand (VoD), Internet Protocol and Over-the-Top (OTT) services to access high
definition videos over home interconnected devices. Another growth area for coaxial
cable is in subways and tunnels, where coax can function like a long antenna to deliver
radio signals to police and transportation officials.
By geography, the U.S. and Canada are relatively mature markets for coaxial cables
compared to Mexico. Currently, the U.S. dominates
the North America coaxial cable market. In the
U.S. about 90% of households have already
installed coaxial cable networks to access
multimedia content over multiple devices such as
HDTVs, laptops, BlueRays, gaming consoles etc,
in multiple rooms.
Also, eight out of the top ten IPTV providers are
using MoCA technology to provide their services
over coaxial cables. Mexico represents the fastest
growing market for coaxial cables due to increasing
investment from the government in telecommunication and broadband to support the
country’s economic development.
In addition, low trade barriers and attractive foreign direct investment (FDI) policies in
telecommunication and broadband are influencing foreign players to invest in this
potential market.
Total Import and Export – Cable (Optical fiber cable, Coaxial cable, and Insulated
wires)
Export/Import Value Percentage (of the overall export value)
Export $7,155,756,577 0.61%
Import $12,505,652,595 0.68%
The total export value of cable in United states is $7.1 billion , which is about 0.61% of
the total export value. And also the total import value of cable in United States is $12.5
billion which is about 0.68% of the total import value of the overall products.

8. Leading suppliers’ analysis and Market share of the leading suppliers
In North America, the top 5 players in the market accounted for about 55% of the overall
market share.
The North America coaxial cable industry looks very competitive with large number of
multinational and domestic manufacturers. No single player has a stronghold on this
market and the top five players accounted for about 55% of the overall market share.
Some key manufacturers of coaxial cable in North America include TE Connectivity,
General Cable, LS Cable and Systems, Belden, Amphenol and Coleman.

9. Consumer Trend and Consumption scale
Internet service providers are the largest end-user segment of coaxial cables in North
America. This segment is expected to maintain its dominating position due to growing
number of IPTV and internet service providers in the region through the estimated period.
Rural areas certainly suffer a lack of high-speed Internet access. While about 88 percent
of urban households in the United States have access to Coaxial cable Internet service,
only 40 percent of rural households do, according to the Federal Communications
Commission and the Commerce Department.
About 20 percent of United States households have access to fiber optic Internet service,
the fastest connection, compared with 86 percent in Japan and two-thirds in South Korea.

Cables and wires are the most common place indicators of a wide range of technologies
existing in various stages of sophistication. As in other fields, military wires primarily
serve two purposes: transmission of power and transmission of telecommunications
payloads and signals. These two broad usages span a wide array of applications and
industries. Consequently cables and wires comprise a formidable market on their own.
The underlying operating principle has remained consistent over the years and is fairly
Micro Coaxial Cable | 45
uncomplicated with regards to cables super flexible wires serving as conduits to connect
high-tech islands. This simplicity in technology does not rub off on its market dynamics.
The result of this simplicity is a large number of significant stakeholders. Additionally,
these diverse stakeholders are very sensitive to macroeconomic trends on the global
scale.
The raw material costs on the supply side explain much of the volatility in the cable
market. As a result, the pricing trends of cables and wires are not entirely driven by
market demand. The market is also far from being homogenous, with the end user
profiles ranging from wholesale purchasers, telecom operators, retail users, utility
managers, power supply companies as well as enterprises.
The leverage enjoyed by the buyers is by and large proportional to their purchase
volumes and inversely proportional to the importance of cables and wires to their
applications.
Applications
Military
Coaxial cable has many uses: military, medical, consumer devices, ham radio, cellular
phone networks, ethernet computer networks, closed-circuit radio networks, terrestrial
microwave and of course CATV Networks. Military is listed first because it seems, as is
the case with many technological advances in the last century, that coax specifications
were designed for and by the military for its many functions.
CATV
In effect, the CATV industry has become the Tail-That-Wags-the-Dog, with regards to
coaxial cable. This is because the industry has become the single biggest user of coaxial
cables. Cable manufacturers are stuck in the middle, creating cables that conform to new
and ever changing military specifications(if they want to procure lucrative government
contracts), while still supplying the needs of the CableCos(who do not change
specs/requirements as often as the military). When a newer/better technology comes
along that improves the characteristics of the cable(either electrically or physically) to
meet some new military requirement, that cable may or may not be of any interest to the
CableCo's.

Present and Future Usage – Coaxial Cable
At present, the use of coaxial cabel has reached a level of maturity which results in the
integration of services beyond television, including the triad of telephone, television and
broadband Internet.
Currently, within the various guided media that support the deployment of data networks,
one of the best known and most prominence is the coaxial cable. This cable, being a
regular in homes today, has turned out to be an inseparable partner of development and
infrastructure deployment of television reception in the last decades. Looking back, the
original expansion is linked to the sellers of U.S. satellite television and cable who saw it
as a way to improve reception in rural areas.
The evolution of its use went through various significant stages, as were the beginning of
the generation of specific content for distribution on this medium and its combined use
with satellite transmission. Currently, the use of coaxial hybrid networks, HFC, has
reached a level of maturity which results in the integration of services beyond television,
including the triad of telephone, television and broadband Internet.
The improvements made by the use of coaxial cable have always been supported by the
initiatives undertaken by various entities that have been committed to develop technical
standards giving the necessary support to the demands that gradually came up. In the next
years its role will be emphasized, along with the demand of video and data
communications (Internet) mainly. Given this forecast, the need for higher bandwidth is
evident, resulting in the fact that they need to increase existing capacity of networks to
handle the future demand, both in the downstream channel as in the return.
In addition, other technologies such as DSL and wireless are undergoing major changes
that are likely .in the short and long term, to be a threat cable operators markets, forcing
an effort in the evolution of cable technology. The progress of the technologies associated
to coaxial cable has led to other standards, focusing on the deployment of local networks
in the home leveraging existing infrastructure.
According to the National Cable and Telecommunications Association, there were
approximately 62 million cable TV subscribers in the US as of 2012. The UK had
approximately 47 million subscribers. The television transmits multiple channels
through the coaxial cable technology.

However, to sustain this dynamic network, one starts to reconsider the traditional method. Implications for the Cable Industry Relatively stable prices for 2013 would be welcomed by the cable industry and would reduce the risks that volatile copper prices can leave cable manufacturers open to. If, as is forecast, the copper price then starts to fall the cable industry will need to manage its business to limit any potential losses associated with holding high priced stocks, and it will also need to be prepared for falling turnover by value. On the plus side lower prices will reduce the cost of raw material and work in progress stocks which should ease some of the pressure on less well capitalized companies. A lower copper price may also reduce interest in looking at alternatives to copper.

AVN Cable Assembly for CARs Global Cable Assembly Market has projected five-year compound annual growth rate of 8.0 percent, the industry value will grow to $130,693 million by 2014. Various components of a car need electrical power, which must all be connected to the battery through the use of cable assemblies. The cables that are used are often used are expected to last a long time and be able to last through a range of environmental conditions – meaning the cable selection is also important. More often than not, a car will use colour coded cables to allow them to gain quick diagnostics and replacement within the car. When the cable assembly is used sufficiently, it will ensure that operations go a lot smoother than it would do without the use of an efficient cable assembly. Cable assemblies are essential for devices powered by electricity, with common example being an automobile (car). The specific design of a cable assembly depends upon its use and the needs of the user. Overall, there are usually industry specifications for each of the major types of use, such as for airplanes or cars.

  • 27. Micro Coaxial Cable | 27 5. Applicability of Micro Coaxial Cable Assembly or High Speed Cable Assembly in AVN system Yes, Micro coaxial cable assembly is applicable in AVN system (Through primary research). Method for the applicability of Micro Coaxial Cable Assembly or High Speed Cable Assembly in AVN system Micro Coaxial cable assemblies are used in a variety of products serving many different markets. It is used to carry higher frequency signals from point A to point B with minimal signal loss and degradation. Cables and interconnect systems are getting smaller, and overall volume is increasing. The most common applications include antenna cabling, cable TV equipment interconnects and automotive applications. In automobiles, for example, more and more systems (satellite radio, AM/FM radio, GPS, cell phones, etc.) are being packed into extremely tight spaces. This increased density of signal carrying cables makes coaxial cable an obvious choice to reduce or eliminate signal interference. OEMs tend to outsource coaxial cable assemblies since they are considered a commodity and not part of their core business. Increasingly, cable and connector manufacturers are producing and providing finished cable assemblies to the OEMs. Since they manufacture the cable and connectors, these manufacturers have a cost advantage over subcontractors who must purchase the components on the outside. A coaxial connector and a method for assembling a coaxial connector which can enhance work efficiency and can simplify equipment required for the assembling. The coaxial connector is assembled by  a first process for forming an insulator assembly  a second process for setting the insulator assembly to an outer conductor terminal via the upper-side opening in the terminal from the direction intersecting the terminal axis perpendicularly a third process for holding the insulator of the insulator assembly by caulking a pair of caulking pieces for holding the insulator, and for connecting and fixing the insulator
  • 28. Micro Coaxial Cable | 28 assembly with a coaxial cable by caulking a pair of caulking pieces for braid connection and a pair of caulking pieces for fixing a sheath, respectively. Methods of Applicability – Micro Coaxial cable assembly There are a myriad of connector types on the market, even greater than the number of different cable types that are available. Some connector designs require additional processing steps, such as folding back the braided shield, tinning the center conductor, etc. Older connector types typically have many parts including the rubber boot, crimp ring, connector body, center contact and connector housing. Newer connector types are being introduced which have fewer parts, sometimes only a single part. For example, the Radiall R3C connector is available on reel and can be applied in a crimping press in one operation. These one-piece connectors lend themselves to automatic assembly methods. The trend is toward fewer connector parts, making it easier for both manual and automatic assembly methods.
  • 29. Micro Coaxial Cable | 29 Regardless of where coaxial cable assemblies are produced, there is a benefit to using partial or fully automatic assembly methods as opposed to strictly manual methods. For smaller batches and frequent changeovers, producing cable assemblies in a semi- automatic work cell is usually more cost effective. Once the production volume increases above 50,000 cable assemblies per month for a given assembly, it makes sense to invest in a fully automatic assembly system. A fully automatic assembly system can be equipped with quality monitoring equipment such as non-destructive pull testers, electrical testers, etc. to ensure that all products is fully tested as it is built. A good/bad sorting station and destructive piece cutter can be added to cut the ends off of any cable assembly that fails any of the quality tests. The use of coaxial cable assemblies continues to increase. Coaxial cable assemblies can be produced using hand tools or using fully automatic equipment with varying levels of automation in between. The level of automation employed usually depends on the typical batch sizes being produced. Low volume, high mix jobs lend themselves to semi- automatic work cell type assembly, and high volume, low mix jobs are best done on fully automatic systems. Newer connector types have fewer parts. Fewer parts to assemble makes it easier and less expensive to automate the process. This results in lower automation costs and shorter production cycle times than was possible with older multi-part connectors. The higher the level of automation, the easier it will be to maintain consistent high quality. Of course, it's possible to manually assemble a coaxial cable assembly but automation is the key to quality.

This segment is expected to maintain its dominating position due to growing number of IPTV and internet service providers in the region through the estimated period. Rural areas certainly suffer a lack of high-speed Internet access. While about 88 percent of urban households in the United States have access to Coaxial cable Internet service, only 40 percent of rural households do, according to the Federal Communications Commission and the Commerce Department. About 20 percent of United States households have access to fiber optic Internet service, the fastest connection, compared with 86 percent in Japan and two-thirds in South Korea.

As in other fields, military wires primarily serve two purposes: transmission of power and transmission of telecommunications payloads and signals. These two broad usages span a wide array of applications and industries. Consequently cables and wires comprise a formidable market on their own. The underlying operating principle has remained consistent over the years and is fairly
  • 45. Micro Coaxial Cable | 45 uncomplicated with regards to cables super flexible wires serving as conduits to connect high-tech islands. This simplicity in technology does not rub off on its market dynamics. The result of this simplicity is a large number of significant stakeholders. Additionally, these diverse stakeholders are very sensitive to macroeconomic trends on the global scale. The raw material costs on the supply side explain much of the volatility in the cable market. As a result, the pricing trends of cables and wires are not entirely driven by market demand. The market is also far from being homogenous, with the end user profiles ranging from wholesale purchasers, telecom operators, retail users, utility managers, power supply companies as well as enterprises. The leverage enjoyed by the buyers is by and large proportional to their purchase volumes and inversely proportional to the importance of cables and wires to their applications. Applications Military Coaxial cable has many uses: military, medical, consumer devices, ham radio, cellular phone networks, ethernet computer networks, closed-circuit radio networks, terrestrial microwave and of course CATV Networks. Military is listed first because it seems, as is the case with many technological advances in the last century, that coax specifications were designed for and by the military for its many functions. CATV In effect, the CATV industry has become the Tail-That-Wags-the-Dog, with regards to coaxial cable. This is because the industry has become the single biggest user of coaxial cables. Cable manufacturers are stuck in the middle, creating cables that conform to new and ever changing military specifications(if they want to procure lucrative government contracts), while still supplying the needs of the CableCos(who do not change specs/requirements as often as the military). When a newer/better technology comes along that improves the characteristics of the cable(either electrically or physically) to meet some new military requirement, that cable may or may not be of any interest to the CableCo's.
  • 46. Micro Coaxial Cable | 46 Present and Future Usage – Coaxial Cable At present, the use of coaxial cabel has reached a level of maturity which results in the integration of services beyond television, including the triad of telephone, television and broadband Internet. Currently, within the various guided media that support the deployment of data networks, one of the best known and most prominence is the coaxial cable. This cable, being a regular in homes today, has turned out to be an inseparable partner of development and infrastructure deployment of television reception in the last decades. Looking back, the original expansion is linked to the sellers of U.S. satellite television and cable who saw it as a way to improve reception in rural areas. The evolution of its use went through various significant stages, as were the beginning of the generation of specific content for distribution on this medium and its combined use with satellite transmission. Currently, the use of coaxial hybrid networks, HFC, has reached a level of maturity which results in the integration of services beyond television, including the triad of telephone, television and broadband Internet. The improvements made by the use of coaxial cable have always been supported by the initiatives undertaken by various entities that have been committed to develop technical standards giving the necessary support to the demands that gradually came up. In the next years its role will be emphasized, along with the demand of video and data communications (Internet) mainly. Given this forecast, the need for higher bandwidth is evident, resulting in the fact that they need to increase existing capacity of networks to handle the future demand, both in the downstream channel as in the return. In addition, other technologies such as DSL and wireless are undergoing major changes that are likely .in the short and long term, to be a threat cable operators markets, forcing an effort in the evolution of cable technology. The progress of the technologies associated to coaxial cable has led to other standards, focusing on the deployment of local networks in the home leveraging existing infrastructure. According to the National Cable and Telecommunications Association, there were approximately 62 million cable TV subscribers in the US as of 2012. The UK had approximately 47 million subscribers. The television transmits multiple channels through the coaxial cable technology.
