Ribbon cables are usually seen for internal peripherals in computers, such as hard drives, CD drives and floppy drives. On some older computer systems (such as the BBC Micro and Apple II) they were used for external connections as well. The ribbon-like shape interferes with computer cooling by disrupting airflow within the case and also makes the cables awkward to handle, especially when there are a lot of them; as a result, round cables have almost entirely replaced ribbon cables for external connections and are increasingly being used internally as well.
A flat ribbon cable is a flat rectangular cable that consists of multiple wires parallel to each other. It is designed for large-scale termination of insulated displacement contact (IDC) connectors. Fixed conductor spacing and constant geometry allow for consistent electrical characteristics such as impedance, capacitance, time delay, crosstalk, and attenuation.
