-%\section{The Material Budget}
The CBM Micro-Vertex-Detector (MVD) relies on employing a material budget $x/X_0$ per detector station of 0.3\% (first station) to 0.5\% (following stations) to allow for a secondary vertex resolution of better than $70~\mathrm{\mu m}$ with typical pixel pitches of about $20~\mathrm{\mu m}$.
To reach this ambitious goal, all components in the acceptance of the detector have to be challenged w.r.t.\ their impact on the material budget, while at the same time maintaining their cutting edge performance regarding mechanical and electrical properties as well as radiation hardness.
In addtion, the sensor readout has to be robust with low noise occupancy, which puts strong constraints on the electrical properties of the rather long cables connecting the sensors with the front-end electronics (FEE) being outside the acceptance of the detector.
Those cables are flexible printed circuits (FPC) and provide power to the CMOS Pixel Sensors (CPS), allow to control them, and to read out the hits.
%The connections to the MAPS sensors will be made with wire-bonding while the FEE-facing side is plugged into a ZIF-connector.
The previous generation cable was not specifically optimized for ultra-low material budget being a two-layer copper-based cable with a layer thickness of about $25 \mathrm{\mu m}$.
-% CHECK the value of 25 \mu m
-It was successfully tested in a beamtime with the CBM-MVD prototype\cite{cern2012}.
+It was successfully tested in a beamtime with the CBM-MVD prototype [1].
Reducing the dominant factor of the material budget meant reducing the thickness of the copper layer, see Tab.~\ref{tab:material-budget}.
The cable was redesigned with a readout to the side (see Fig.~\ref{fig:cable-layout}), a smaller feature size ($80 \mathrm{\mu m}$) and thus a reduced total cable width, and copper traces with a thickness of only $12 \mathrm{\mu m}$.
-The cables were manufactured using a commercial technology offered by ILFA\cite{ILFA}
-% The big contribution of the copper layers to the material budget of the cable can be seen in the table \ref{tab:material-budget}.

-%\section{Summary}
To summarize, a new ultra-thin design of the FPC for the CBM Micro-Vertex-Detector was created and the cables produced.
Its suitability will be analyzed including its electrical performance and integration stability.
Further technologies to reduce the material budget even more are being evaluated.
