A braided cable is a type of cable where the outer covering is composed of interwoven strands of material, often nylon, cotton, or other synthetic fibers. This braided covering provides the cable with increased durability, strength, and flexibility. Braided cables are commonly used in various applications, including electrical wiring, technology peripherals, and as charging cables for electronic devices. They are known for their resistance to damage from bending, pulling, and general wear and tear, making them a popular choice for products requiring robust and reliable cables.
