Catalog: GORE^® High Speed Data Cables for Aerospace & Defense

Our high-speed data transfer cable solutions support the latest open-source architectures and standardized protocols, like Ethernet, USB, HDMI, CAN Bus, FireWire®, Fibre Channel and more. For example, our high-speed USB data cable bundles meet 2.0, 3.0 and 3.1 protocols, while our Ethernet cables meet Cat5e, Cat6A and Cat8 protocols.

To meet various types of high data rates that system architects and engineers require, we offer an extensive catalog of copper, fiber optic and hybrid solutions, including the following:

• GORE® Shielded Twisted Pair Cables (100 Ohms)
• GORE® CAN Bus Cables (120 Ohms)
• GORE® Ethernet Cables (100 Ohms)
  • Cat5e/6A/8 (4 Pairs)

Our custom military and aerospace cables are smaller and lighter, giving system architects and engineers more design options. Their compact designs are also more flexible and bend more tightly than leading alternatives, making them easier and faster to route and retrofit in crowded areas. Our products for defense and aerospace file transfer also offer the following:

Using a unique proprietary material (expanded PTFE), our high-speed data cable solutions have a considerably reduced jacket weight than leading alternative materials. In fact, they’re up to 37% lighter than those made with ETFE material and up to 50% lighter than those made with FEP material. For instance, our high-speed Ethernet materials can save installed weight up to 82 kg/km or 180 lbs. per 1000 ft. in aircraft and combat vehicles compared to other high-speed data cable manufacturers. Not only do our materials save weight, but they also make cable diameters smaller and more flexible to help simplify installation.

Designed with signal strength and integrity in mind, our wires and cables remain stable without requiring additional signal amplification devices. They deliver high power, high data rates and high bandwidth over long distances with total reliability. For example, our high-speed Ethernet cable for Cat8 protocol offers faster speeds up to 40G-BASE-T at lengths up to 22 m (72 ft.) without adding weight to help you adjust now and be ready for the future.

Thanks to their unique construction, GORE High Speed Data Cables for Air & Defense offer superior durability, protection and a much longer lifespan than many leading alternatives. They resist wide temperature ranges, crushing, abrasion and vibration common in aerospace and defense environments. What’s more, our military and aerospace cable solutions have a greater cut-through resistance — even at high temperatures — and are made of chemically inert materials that reduce reactions to harmful contaminants and fluids.

For faster data and video transmission in small, lightweight, but robust packages, choose from Gore’s full line of high-speed data components for defense aircraft, commercial aircraft and military vehicles. To confirm the quality and compatibility of our high-speed cables in your application, we offer complimentary samples you can order from our trusted distributors.
