VR / AR Headset and Controller Coiled Cable

Custom TPU coiled cable for VR and AR headsets, handheld controllers, training systems and tethered interactive equipment. The cable is developed around reach, signal or power requirements, connector movement and the way the operator stores and extends the coil.

Quick Answer

A VR or AR coiled cable should provide the required working reach without pulling the headset or controller, while keeping connector exits protected during repeated movement. Buyers should define electrical function, relaxed length, working extension, straight tails, connector orientation and the intended mounting position before sampling.

Application Risks

• Excess return force affects headset or controller movement.
• Insufficient extension limits the user’s working area.
• Connector rotation or short straight tails increase strain at the exit.
• Signal, shielding or power construction does not match the equipment.
• A compressed coil interferes with storage, charging or cable routing.

Recommended Cable Construction

The construction is selected from the equipment drawing and electrical requirements. Options can include multi-core conductors, power and signal combinations, twisted pairs, shielding, drain wire, TPU jacket, straight tails and molded or assembled connectors. Shield termination and grounding must be confirmed for the actual device.

Dimensions and Rebound

Specify relaxed coil length, normal working extension, temporary maximum extension, coil outside diameter, pitch and straight-tail length at both ends. Sample approval should record extension and recovered length using an agreed method in the intended headset or controller position.

Connector and Pinout

Provide mating connector references, pinout, keying, orientation, cable exit direction and retention needs. Connector selection may include USB-related, circular or customer-specified interfaces, subject to drawing review and electrical suitability.

Testing and Sample Approval

• Continuity and pinout against the approved drawing
• Relaxed length, working extension and straight-tail dimensions
• Connector fit, orientation and strain-relief inspection
• Shielding or signal checks defined by the project
• Rebound observation after the agreed extension routine
• Packaging check to prevent coil deformation

MOQ, Lead Time and Custom Options

MOQ and lead time depend on conductor construction, connector availability, tooling, overmold requirements, sample testing, color, marking, quantity and packaging. Custom options include coil dimensions, straight tails, conductor count, gauge, shielding, jacket color, connectors, labels and unit packaging.

Buyer Checklist

• VR or AR equipment model and cable function
• Voltage, current, data or signal requirement
• Relaxed length and normal working extension
• Conductor count, gauge, shield and grounding
• Connector model, pinout and exit direction
• Movement, mounting and storage conditions
• Sample quantity, annual demand and packaging
