How to Order Cable Assemblies: 4-Step Process

Step 1 — Submit Your RFQ

To order cable assemblies from Nexharn, start by submitting your drawing, specification sheet, or physical sample via our RFQ form. Include: connector types (both ends), overall cable length, number of conductors, jacket material and colour, quantity, target lead time, and destination country. Upload PDF, DWG, or JPG files directly. The more detail you provide, the faster and more accurate your quotation will be.

Step 2 — Quotation & Prototype

We review your specification and respond with a detailed quotation within 24 hours on business days. Before you order cable assemblies in production quantity, prototype or golden samples are produced in 5–15 business days for your dimensional and functional approval. Sample cost is waived for follow-on production orders above MOQ. A full FAI (First Article Inspection) report is available on request with the prototype.

Step 3 — Confirm Order

Approve the golden sample and confirm your production quantity to formally order cable assemblies at production scale. We issue a production schedule, pro-forma invoice, and order acknowledgement. A T/T 30% deposit initiates production scheduling. For repeat orders we can maintain safety stock to reduce lead time on subsequent deliveries.

Step 4 — Production & Shipment

Production runs under 100% electrical testing, AQL 0.65 visual inspection, and pull-force testing per IEC 60068 test methods. When you order cable assemblies from Nexharn, every production lot ships with: certificate of origin, packing list, commercial invoice, and production inspection report. Shipping via DHL Express, FedEx, or sea freight with tracking details shared on despatch.

How to Order Cable Assemblies: FAQ

What is the fastest way to order cable assemblies?

The fastest way to order cable assemblies is to submit a complete RFQ with your drawing or specification, including connector part numbers, cable length, and quantity. A complete specification eliminates back-and-forth clarifications and allows us to respond with an accurate quotation within 4 hours (same business day). Prototype lead time for simple constructions using in-stock materials is 3–5 business days.

What information do I need to order cable assemblies?

At minimum: connector type at both ends (manufacturer part number preferred), overall cable length, jacket material or application environment, and quantity. A drawing or physical sample eliminates ambiguity. For compliance-critical applications (medical, automotive, EV), also specify the applicable standards (ISO 13485, IATF 16949, UL, CE).

Can I order cable assemblies in small quantities for testing?

Yes. Our prototype MOQ starts at 1 pc depending on product type. When you subsequently order cable assemblies for production above our stated MOQ, prototype cost is typically waived or discounted against the production order.

What quality documentation do I receive when I order cable assemblies?

Every production lot ships with: packing list, commercial invoice, certificate of origin, and a production inspection report. For compliance-critical products, we also provide material traceability (conductor reel lot, jacket extrusion lot), per-piece electrical test results, and pull-force test records. ISO 13485-aligned QMS documentation is available for medical cable assembly orders.
