Shorter FASLINK cables

Hi All,

We've had some requests to offer a shorter FASLINK cable in our store for use with the FM3 and FC-6 or FC-12.

What do you think the ideal length would be? Potentially, one needs to allow for an FC-12 on either side, which makes the cable longer than it needs to be, for example, in a typical OMG9 rig (but not annoyingly so, I expect.) I was thinking 70cm = 27 1/2"
 
I ended up buying one in a 50cm length but my FM3 and FC6 are pretty close together on my Temple board, and I have the cable routed underneath which has just enough length for me. 70cm should be enough to allow for both the FC12 and 6 I would've thought. I guess it just depends on how you have everything setup.
 
How are you measuring? If we just consider the exposed length of the cable itself, 22" would accommodate an FC-12 on the side of your choice, with a reasonable bend radius. 27" if there's an EV-1 between them.
