Depends on construction, materials, care and use....probably also include the critical nature of the application...

...and what is <...the lifetime of SPM of course...>?

Does the forum need to play "20 Questions" to tease out all the information required to return a meaningful answer again (rhetorical question - NNTR)?

An answer befitting the question: until it fails.

The makers of the cable may. What did they say during the telephone call?

When the umbilical cord is ordered from a manufacturer there are certain specifications required that are in the datasheet, certain components of the cord may have different design life specification. Now the design life might be 100 years, but the cord is probably only guaranteed for 12 mos. How long the cord lasts has to do with use, care, accidents, stress, strain, environment and a host of other variables.

If you throw a drowning man a lifeline and he yells, "more chain," it's time to go back to shore and have a toddy.

Beam me up, Scotty, we must look elsewhere for intelligent life!
