German term or phrase: 10-poliges Kabel
Kontext:
Die Elektronikplatine ist mittels eines 10-poligen Kabels an die Sensoreinheit angeschlossen.

10 core cable
Explanation:
UKE. The single cable has ten wires bound within it. These are called "cores" but expressed as singular in the adjectival form here. Each will usually have a different insulation colour so that everyone knows which one goes where.

BTW,10 polig isn't quite right in DE anyway- this usually refers to switches or connectors, not the wire, more usual is "10-adriges Kabel"
