GORE® Aerospace Cables Meet the Demands for Reliable High-Speed Data Transmission within Civil Aerospace Applications
Pleinfeld, Germany (PRWEB) September 29, 2015 -- In response to advancements in modern airborne digital networks and passenger demands, W. L. Gore & Associates, Inc. (Gore) announces its family of high-speed data cables for civil aerospace applications. These products address the industry’s ever-increasing data needs in aircraft, including passenger in-flight entertainment (IFE) and essential electronic systems while reducing maintenance downtime and operating costs.
GORE® Aerospace Cables deliver excellent signal integrity for high-speed data transmission up to 10 gigabits over longer distances. They support standard protocols such as Ethernet Cat5e and Cat6a, USB 3.1, HDMI 2.0, and more. Adrian Milne, Global Product Manager for Civil Aerospace says, “The increasing data rates required to enable the next generation of high-speed data protocols are a real challenge for cable technology. Our thorough understanding of materials and their interaction in challenging environments combined with our proven experience in providing reliable signal integrity allow us to excel in this area.”
Constructed with uniquely engineered fluoropolymers, GORE® Aerospace Cables provide durable protection in the most demanding aerospace environments, including a wide range of temperatures. The high-density construction of these cables significantly reduces weight and diameter for improved installation. The small cable diameter increases flexibility with a tight bend radius for easy routing.
Typical applications for GORE® Aerospace Cables include avionics networks, digital video systems, cabin management systems, flight management systems, Ethernet backbone, content loading systems, weather radar systems, and in-flight entertainment and connectivity (IFEC) systems.
GORE® Aerospace Cables will be on display at APEX (Airline Passenger Experience Association) Expo in Portland, Oregon on September 28 through October 1, Booth 328.
