We can short them to maybe 18 inch. The attached picture shows the Dataforth back-plane in the left side and the breakout panel in the right side. There is one long ribbon cable connected already.</div>

To reduce the length of the ribbon cable, one connector in one side will need to be cut and re-done. Is this difficult ?</div>

I would suggest routing the cable that go from the I/O rack to the PLC rack upwards, from the terminal blocks to the top of the I/O racks.</div>
<div style="font-family:Calibri,Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif; font-size:12pt; color:rgb(0,0,0)">
The cables that come from the Magnet to the I/O rack could then be routed from the bottom of the rack up to the terminal strips.

this would reduce the cable density in the plastic cable duct tray.</div>

Could the Dataforth ribbon cable be easily shortened? Between the Dataforth backplane and the breakout panel?
