What Is the Orthoscan FD-OR Umbilical Cable Assembly (920-0175)?
Product: Orthoscan FD-OR Umbilical Cable Assembly
Part Number: 920-0175
The Orthoscan FD-OR Umbilical Cable Assembly (920-0175) is the multi-conductor cable that connects the C-arm head assembly — containing the x-ray tube and flat panel detector — to the base unit of the Orthoscan FD-OR Mini C-Arm. This umbilical is specific to the FD-OR with the 20-inch monitor configuration. It simultaneously carries high-voltage power to the x-ray tube, digital image data from the flat panel detector to the system computer, and control signals governing x-ray output — making it one of the most critical cables in the system. A failing umbilical cable typically presents as no x-ray output despite the system powering on normally, intermittent or erratic imaging, error codes related to the tube head or detector at startup, or complete loss of communication between the C-arm head and the base unit. Visible damage such as kinking, crushing, or fraying along the cable run is also a common indicator.

What does the umbilical cable do on the Orthoscan FD-OR?+
The umbilical cable is the primary multi-conductor cable connecting the C-arm head — which houses the x-ray tube and flat panel detector — to the base unit. It carries high-voltage power to the tube, digital image data from the detector to the system computer, and control signals governing x-ray output. A failure anywhere along its length can affect x-ray generation, image acquisition, or both.
What are the symptoms of a failing umbilical cable?+
Common symptoms include no x-ray output despite the system powering on normally, intermittent or erratic imaging, error codes related to the tube head or detector at startup, and complete loss of communication between the C-arm head and the base unit. Visible damage — kinking, crushing, or fraying along the cable run — is also a reliable indicator, as umbilical cables are subject to repeated bending during daily C-arm positioning.
Why is the monitor configuration important when ordering this part?+
The FD-OR was produced with different monitor configurations across its production run. Part 920-0175 is the umbilical cable for the FD-OR with the 20″ monitor. Different monitor configurations may use a different umbilical. Always confirm your specific monitor size and serial number with our team before ordering to ensure you receive the correct cable.
What does sold on exchange mean?+
Exchange means you return your defective core unit when you receive the replacement. This helps keep costs down and ensures defective units are properly refurbished. Our team will provide return instructions with your order.
How quickly can I get this part shipped?+
Same-day shipping is available on in-stock parts when ordered before 5PM EST. Call (800) 643-2998 to confirm availability and arrange shipping.
