Private label: your brand on a stock cable
Pick from our established cable constructions and connectors, then add your logo, colors, lengths and packaging. This is the fastest route to market and usually the lowest MOQ.
Custom Audio Cables: OEM, ODM and Private Label
Build a cable line under your own brand — from your logo on a stock design to a fully custom cable. Start with a small first run, approve a sample, and scale with confidence.
Low MOQ · Written specs · Golden-sample QC · Retail-ready packaging
Three ways to start
Choose your starting point
ODM: one of our designs, adapted for you
Start from an existing design, such as our modular headphone cable, and adapt it with your plug set, braid, colors and packaging. Suppliers use these terms differently, so your quote states which model applies.
Custom (OEM): a cable built to your spec
Need a specific connector combination, construction or look? Send a drawing or a reference product, or we'll write the spec with you. We source the parts and arrange samples. New tooling is a one-time charge quoted separately and typically adds 15–25 days. Timing and MOQ depend on what's new.
What you can customize
Customization options
Every option is available at a low MOQ; custom colors and new tooling may carry their own minimum, confirmed in your quote. Extra lead times are typical and add to standard production time.
Low MOQ, set per project
We set minimums per project, not with a single number for every product. MOQ depends on:
- Cable type and construction — stock constructions start lower than custom-built cable.
- Length — longer cables and bulk reels are planned differently from short patch cables.
- Level of customization — a laser-engraved logo on a stock housing needs less than a custom jacket color or new packaging.
You can combine several designs in one order to reach the minimum, with a smaller minimum per design. Tell us your target quantity, even if it's small. We'll suggest the most efficient way to get there, such as starting with stock colors or sharing packaging across SKUs.
How it works
From brief to shipment
- BriefShare your cable type, target market, quantity range, branding and any reference products: drawings, photos or links. We reply within 1 business day.
- Specification and quoteWe write a spec covering construction, connectors, pinout, length and packaging. Quotes take 2 business days for standard products, 3–5 for custom work.
- SamplingSamples follow the approved spec; the one you approve becomes the golden sample. Stock samples ship in 2–5 business days, custom samples in 7–15.
- ProductionStandard designs typically take 15–30 days after sample approval and deposit; custom packaging or braids add 7–10 days, new tooling 15–25.
- Inspection and packingHaisen staff or a third-party inspector AQL-checks every bulk order, labels and barcodes included. You get the report and photos before paying the balance.
- ShippingExpress DAP is standard, typically 3–7 days to North America and Europe. Freight ships FOB Shenzhen/Hong Kong or FCA Hong Kong; DDP on request.
All lead times are typical. Your quote and proforma invoice confirm the dates for your order. Production pauses for about 2–4 weeks around Chinese New Year, so plan early-year orders ahead.
Samples before you commit
Seeing and testing the cable is the best way to judge it. Request stock samples to evaluate construction and finish, or custom samples made to your specification.
- Stock samples: free of sample charges — up to 2 pieces per design and 5 designs per request.
- Custom samples (your logo, a new color): a sampling fee per design, quoted before sampling and credited in full against a bulk order that meets the MOQ and is placed within 60 days.
- Shipping: paid by you, or sent on your DHL, FedEx or UPS account.
- Business customers only: please include your company name and website.
E-commerce & retail ready
Ready for the shelf and the marketplace
We plan for what happens after production: retail display, parcel shipping and marketplace check-in. Before founding Haisen, our founder Hunter Hu spent eight years developing audio cable products and running stores on Amazon, so we plan packaging, labels and cartons around marketplace receiving rules and the problems that lead to returns.
Retail packaging
Packaging formats that protect the cable and present your brand, with size and dieline guidance for your designer.
Barcodes and labels
We apply your UPC or EAN barcodes, check that they scan, print Amazon FBA labels and mark cartons to your marketplace or retailer requirements.
Shipping-safe cartons
Inner packs and master cartons planned for parcel and freight handling.
Product label information
We print the label information you provide, such as EU GPSR manufacturer and responsible-person details and warnings. Haisen is not your EU Responsible Person or importer; your brand or importer remains responsible for compliance.
Quality you can check
- Written specification approved before sampling
- Golden sample as the production reference
- AQL inspection of every bulk order before shipment, with the report and photos sent to you
- Your own third-party inspection welcome
- RoHS testing, plus CE or FCC testing where applicable, arranged per project with reports issued for your brand

OEM FAQ
OEM and ODM questions
Do you publish prices?
No. Pricing depends on construction, quantity and customization, so every project receives its own quote.
What files do you need for my logo?
A vector file (AI, EPS, SVG or PDF) works best. If you only have an image, send it and we'll advise on what can be engraved or printed.
Can I order different lengths or colors in one order?
Yes. You can combine several designs, lengths or colors in one order to reach the minimum, with a smaller minimum per design. We confirm the split in your quote.
Who owns my design?
Your logo, artwork and the custom specification you approve are yours, and we don't sell your custom design to other brands. We're happy to sign your NDA before you share designs, or we can send you our standard NDA.
Do you work with individual buyers?
No. We supply business customers only — brands, retailers, distributors, studios and installers. Please include your company name and website when you contact us.
Can you help with compliance documents?
Yes. We can arrange RoHS testing, and CE or FCC testing where applicable, for your product on a per-project basis, with reports issued for your brand. We also print the label information you provide. Final compliance responsibility stays with the brand or importer selling in each market.
What is the difference between OEM and ODM for audio cables?
With OEM, the cable is built to your own specification or drawing, so you define the construction, connectors, and wiring. With ODM, you start from a supplier's existing design and adapt it with options and branding. OEM gives more control; ODM is usually faster, but the base design is often not exclusive.
