1.2 mm Simplex Cable - Spaceflight
Space and military optical systems require proven components that will provide consistent performance in severe thermal and environmental conditions. Unpredictable component performance can adversely affect overall system performance. GORE™ 1.2 mm Simplex Cable has demonstrated stable optical performance when subjected to vibration, mechanical shock, tension, and temperature extremes. As a result, GORE™ 1.2 mm Simplex Cable is the first and only single-mode cable qualified for spaceflight use.
