Smart CablesSmart cables are a type of cable assembly that is designed to be intelligent or programmable. These cables typically include additional features or capabilities beyond those of a typical cable, such as the ability to communicate with the devices they are connected to, or to perform certain actions based on the signals they carry. Smart cables may be used in a variety of applications, such as industrial automation, medical devices, or consumer electronics, where the ability to program or control the cable is beneficial. Examples of smart cables include cables that can be remotely activated or deactivated, cables that can monitor and report on their own health or performance, or cables that can automatically adjust their signal parameters based on the devices they are connected to.
