LS Cable and System is encouraging mutual growth with small and mid-sized firms through product development as well as cooperation in sales.
 
The company started to sell LAN cable test terminals, which has been developed together with Kangwon Electronics.  
 
When a cable is inserted into the test terminal, the terminal can accurately inspect short circuits or wiring errors in a short time. Testers can visually figure out whether there is an abnormality through LED. Moreover, it reduces labor costs and time during network construction by allowing self-test and long-distance inspection.  
 
In particular, battery life was extended by supplying power only when the terminal is operated without a separate power switch, and this function was applied for a patent.  
 
The technical cooperation resulted in a considerable synergy effect according to the company. By combining LS Cable & System’s high technical skills with Kangwon Electronics’ market information, it not only enhanced the product’s function but also improved consumer convenience.  
 
In addition, LS Cable & System succeeded in localizing sensor cables for automobiles last year by jointly carrying out a national project with Expantel, a small and medium-sized cable manufacturer.
 
The oxygen sensor cables for automobiles should be thin and constant in thickness.
 
LS Cable and System supported technology development as well as helped establish quality management systems by dispatching its engineers to Expantel’s workplace.  
 
“Previously we focused on communication cable as our major business, but we are diversifying our business into the auto-cable market through cooperation with LS Cable and System and even seeking to make inroads into the global market,” said an official from Expantel.
