LaCie Adds Colorful Flat Cables

LaCie announced the availability of a practical and fun new line of products for the home and office, the LaCie Flat Cables design by item. Created exclusively for LaCie by the innovative international product design company item, the colorful LaCie Flat Cables bring functional improvements along with a stylish new look to the ubiquitous and cumbersome computer cable.

Available for three types of USB interfaces as well as for two types of FireWire (400 and 800) and eSATA connectors, the five seven LaCie Flat Cables design by item are made to lie flat on work areas, eliminating the clutter and the uncontrolled coiling of today’s cables. Each cable type has its own distinct color–blue for USB, green orange for FireWire and orangegreen for eSATA–so that at a glance customers can easily detect which LaCie Flat Cable leads to which specific electronic device. And for even easier identification, each of the sleek LaCie Flat Cables comes with 24 adhesive labels so users can customize them with greater detail.

“These colorful cables will delight users’ sensibilities while making their work areas less chaotic,” said Alexis Kobassian, Accessories Product Manager for LaCie. “We expect they will be popular among practical business users in the office as well as customers who want to reduce cable clutter at home.”

Customers can connect virtually all of their personal electronic gear to their computer via the family of LaCie Flat Cables design by item–USB A to B, USB A to Mini B and USB A male to A female cables as well as the FW 400 to FW 400, FW 400 to FW 800 or FW800 to FW 800 cables and the eSATA to eSATA cable. All LaCie Flat Cables wind and unwind with ease and without unruly tangling, making them the best choice for users in the work environments and to carry along with their portable devices.
