Overview
RELIABLE SIGNAL INTEGRITY AT HIGH DATA RATES
Today’s defense aircraft require cables to carry loads of data at faster speeds on avionics digital networks to ensure missions succeed. Since aviation cables play a key role in system performance, they must outlast complex maintenance and environmental conditions, like tricky wiring, fluctuating temperatures and harsh contaminants.
GORE Fibre Channel Cables are a reliable, low-dielectric solution to combat these challenges. They’re proven to maintain consistent signal integrity at high data rates up to 1 GHz. Featuring a balanced quadrax design with field-cancellation properties, they can transmit two different signals within the same shield without interfering with each other. Our high-speed interconnects are also proven to enhance noise immunity and EMI suppression.
Low-dielectric cable geometry
SAVE WEIGHT & BOOST DURABILITY
We originally invented this low-dielectric quadrax cable geometry that saves more weight in aircraft than other cable designs. Compared to dual twisted pair cables, our fibre channel cables are about 40% smaller, making them naturally lighter. Our design is also highly flexible with tight bending to simplify and expedite aircraft wiring in narrow system configurations.
Just because they’re smaller and lighter doesn’t mean they’re fragile like other cable materials. We also boost durability with our uniquely engineered fluoropolymers that resist hazardous aircraft environments and extreme flight conditions.
Tough construction of GORE Fibre Channel Cables.
Applications & Connectors
GORE Fibre Channel Cables have been proven and trusted on the F-16, F-18 and AV8B, making them a reliable interconnect for critical applications, like:
- active electronically scanned arrays (AESA)
- mission systems
- flight management systems
- tactical aircraft moving maps
Our cables can be terminated with a variety of leading high-speed aerospace and defense connector systems and backshells, like ARINC and MIL-STD-38999 with size 8 contacts.
They can also be mated with commercially available connectors to create assemblies and optimize performance in the smallest possible package. Benefits include:
- Insert configurations maintain quadrax geometry through connector interface
- Improved Z° match minimizes reflections for clean eye patterns
- Standard size 22D contacts provide high reliability and ease of use
- Series 3 coupling provides enhanced EMI performance
Features & Benefits
We build GORE Fibre Channel Cables with rugged features proven to resist extreme aircraft conditions and environmental factors, including:
- original inventor of reduced quadrax design
- temperature- and abrasion-resistant materials
- chemically inert materials
For system architects and engineers, our aviation interconnects provide many benefits that improve their overall performance in aircraft, like:
- consistent signals up to 1 GHz with controlled impedance at 150 ohms
- enhanced noise immunity and EMI suppression
- resist hazardous aircraft environments and extreme flight conditions
- low-dielectric design is around 40% smaller than dual twisted pair constructions
- more weight savings in aircraft than other cable designs
- simpler and faster aircraft wiring from high flexibility and tight bending ability
- proven on many airborne platforms, like the F-16, F-18 and AV8B
- compatible with a variety of high-speed connector systems and backshells
