Marketing says the thick VNA cables with the black jackets are armored, but how armored? Let's find out. No working VNA cables were harmed in the making of this video. I purchased a non-functioning cable specifically for this purpose and thought I'd share.

the pressure patch of a tire is typically in the range of 1000-2500 pounds per tier depending on weight. a small tubular object is not going to bear full load of a flexible rubber tire. its gonna marhsmellow and put lots of contact pressure around the object and straight to ground. putting more like 100-500 pounds of pressure on this small area. this is not a good test of crush strength for small items.

These are for lab instruments. The threat profile is 50lb plastic boxes and 200lb hairy apes. These cables are expensive -- that short cable may have cost $10k in its past life -- so lab supervisors (myself included) make much ado about how fragile they are and how much care they must be handled with. The connectors are the most fragile part, so this is still accurate to first order, but it is entertaining to see that in one direction at least the protection wildly exceeds expectations.
