Le faisceau de câblage [relie] électriquement les éléments du télémanipulateur. Il fournit l'électricité à toutes les articulations et à l'effecteur (main robotique) et transmet également les données et l'information provenant de chacune d'entre elles. Le faisceau de câblage parcours le SRMS [Shuttle Remote Manipulator System], traverse la soute de la navette et vient se terminer dans le poste de commande de la navette spatiale.
