MDPC-X sizing help

[Ibraah3m]

Hey all.

I ordered a NFC S4M, that made it to the country in less time than it has been spending at customs. I still need to source a power button. I found a local vendor that sells MDPC-X sleeving among other nice things.

I also found the 2 pin DuPont connector to use with the anti-vandal bulgin switch they’re dirt cheap and easy to find.

I’d like to sleeve these to make them a little prettier, but I would also like to sleeve a variety of other cables, USB, Ethernet etc.
Could anyone possibly leave some tips and tricks and “what I would have done differently knowing then what I know now” type knowledge please for me, a noob to cable sleeving.

Hi @Ibraah3m

You would mainly use small sleeve from MDPC (either classic or XTC sleeve) for your vandal switches, USB, Front I/O and ATX Cables

You would need to use MDPC medium sleeve for your larger cables.. Ethernet, SATA data ect ect.

For more detailed advise then you are welcome to pop me a email
