What is a multi-entry for unassembled cables?
Multi-entries are used to feed several cables through the housing of a control cabinet or machine. Often, the cables are only fitted with the necessary connectors on site, i.e. in the control cabinet or machine.
Cables that are inserted into a housing without connectors are unassembled cables.
What are the differences between the LAPP multi-entries for unassembled cables?
Our tried-and-tested LAPP multi-entries for up to 30 unassembled cables offer special features tailored to various applications. They differ fundamentally in the distribution, size and number of individual bushings.
The MULTI product family is characterised by its unique elastic gel technology with innovative membrane technology.

SKINTOP® MULTI
The multi-entry with an extremely elastic and tear-resistant gel seal enables the insertion of up to 30 cables with diameters ranging from 2 mm to 20 mm. It is available in a wide range of space-saving versions. Special bushings also allow flat AS-I bus cables to be accommodated.
SKINTOP® MULTI VENT
This cable gland combines two major advantages: the elastic gel technology of the SKINTOP® MULTI and a pressure-compensation element that does not allow moisture to penetrate, but allows air to be exchanged. MULTI VENT thus prevents pressure build-up and condensation of water in your device or machine.
SKINTOP® MULTI-M
The gel seal of the SKINTOP® MULTI-M has outstanding sealing properties. It has a graduated funnel-shaped design and is always crack-free, even for cables with large diameters. The round multi-entry with stable metric connection thread can be easily screwed into housing boreholes. Simply tighten using the supplied lock nut to create a safe cable entry.
SKINTOP® CUBE MULTI
If you prefer modular systems, you will love this multi-entry! The system consists of the SKINTOP® CUBE FRAME and a special SKINTOP® CUBE MULTI gel insert.

EMC protection for multi entries with unassembled cables
What can EMC protection look for multi-entries with unassembled cables?
For applications requiring a high level of electromagnetic compatibility (EMC), these SKINTOP® BRUSH ADD-ON 24 can be installed inside the housing. Due to the opposite arrangement, their patented brushes maintain permanent contact with the copper braiding of the cables, ensure constant conductivity and safely discharges interference signals.
You may need these accessories
To keep track of your installed cables, we offer FLEXIMARK® cable marking. With FLEXIMARK®, you can assign a unique designation to each product, from single cores right through to entire power bundles. It is completely individually designed, for example as a marking sleeve or printed label.
To achieve optimum strain relief for the cables inserted into your plant with a multi-entry, you can additionally bundle these with a cable tie inside the housing. You can find all product variants and many practical solutions for binding, bundling and fastening under Cable ties and accessories.
