LANDENBERG, Pa. (September 25, 2015) – W. L. Gore & Associates (Gore) introduces GORE® Aerospace Fiber Optic Cables to meet the civil aerospace industry's need for reliable high-speed data transmission cables in a durable, lightweight construction. Engineered with a unique dual-buffering system, GORE® Aerospace Fiber Optic Cables withstand the challenging environments they encounter throughout an aircraft's service life. These cables deliver excellent signal integrity for high-speed data transmission in wide temperature ranges. 

GORE® Aerospace Fiber Optic Cables have a robust construction that is smaller and lighter weight for improved installation. These cables are highly flexible with a tight bend radius for easy routing in confined spaces of an aircraft. They resist crushing, kinking, and abrasion while providing reliable signal integrity before and after installation. "Our customers value a fiber product that can survive the rigors of installation" – Jeremy Moore, Application Engineer at W. L. Gore & Associates. With an exceptional balance of properties, GORE® Aerospace Fiber Optic Cables are the choice of engineers when they need additional durability without sacrificing size or weight. 

GORE® Aerospace Fiber Optic Cables complement the wide Aerospace product offerings in including, high performance quads, Cat5E, Cat6A, USB3.1, HDMI 2.0 and high frequency GORE Microwave cables. 

Typical applications for GORE® Aerospace Fiber Optic Cables include avionics networks, digital video systems, cabin management systems, flight management systems, Ethernet backbone, transceivers, weather radar systems, and in-flight entertainment and connectivity (IFEC) systems.
