Our custom CAN bus cables cut costs and boost efficiency.
Custom CAN bus cables: Rewired for savings!
If your machinery’s communication network feels like a money pit—think labor-intensive braiding or overpriced host computers—you’re not alone.
Modern equipment like skid loaders, tractors or industrial gear demands reliable, efficient wiring that doesn’t fail to get the message across and off-the-shelf options often fall short.
Our custom CAN bus cables are here to save the day, cutting costs and boosting performance.
How we’re redefining CAN bus
First, let’s address what CAN bus is; CAN is an acronym for controller area network.
Developed by Bosch in 1983, the CAN bus was initially designed to reduce the cost and complexity of wiring cars (fun trivia fact: the first car to use these cables was the 1991 Mercedez-Benz W140).
It functions as the central nervous system of a car, with the cables allowing for swift communication between every part of the vehicle.
Check out this deep dive that breaks it down in simple terms:
Given how efficient these are, it’s no wonder CAN buses quickly spread to other applications outside of automobiles:
- Agricultural equipment
- Electronic equipment for aviation and navigation
- Electric generators
- Industrial automation and mechanical control
- Elevators, escalators
- Building automation
- Medical instruments and equipment
- Pedelecs
- Model railways/railroads
- Ships and other maritime applications
- Lighting control systems
- 3D printers
- Robotics/Automation
We understand your business has its own specific needs, which is why we developed two custom CAN bus cables that lower costs, save you time and offer a cleaner setup by avoiding cable braiding.
Plus, we tailor it to your needs: pick conductor size, shielding, and jacketing (oil-resistant? High temperature? Flexible?) to match your exact environment.

Savings you can see
Why care? Because every dollar and hour saved counts.
CAN bus reduces complexity by replacing extensive point-to-point wiring with a single, shared communication line and by using a message-based system that allows any device to receive and act on relevant data, simplifying overall system architecture.
Our design process lets you skip expensive middlemen and get a cable that’s plug-and-play for your project, with lead times among the fastest in the business and order quantities that won’t choke your budget.
