GORE® Shielded Twisted Pair Cables for Aerospace & Defense
Our durable, low-profile cables meet today’s higher data rate requirements with controlled impedance, saving valuable weight in wire & harness applications.
Fast, Durable Solutions That Offer More Weight Savings
GORE® Shielded Twisted Pair Cables can transfer data and video at speeds up to 1 GHz, tolerating mechanical stresses and environmental factors like changing climate zones, constant vibration and rigorous routing. Smaller than alternative round designs, our cables are more flexible and routable in hard-to-reach places.
Durable & Lightweight
Unlike standard oval or alternative round versions, GORE Shielded Twisted Pair Cables are engineered with unique features that make them more durable against harsh maintenance and operational environments, including:
- abrasion- and temperature-resistant materials
- chemically inert, polyimide-free materials
- lightweight construction with smaller diameters
Proven Performance
Our cables provide system architects and engineers with many benefits that improve electrical, mechanical and environmental performance such as:
- reliable differential signals with controlled impedance at 100 ohms
- dependable twisted shielded pair cable data transfer rate up to 1 GHz
- endure extreme temperatures, cut-through, vibration, chemicals and more
- ultralight cable design reduces weight by 60% than leading alternatives
- improved installation from higher flexibility and tighter bend radius
- compatible with a variety of leading cable connector systems and backshells
For Aerospace & Defense
The reliable performance of GORE Shielded Twisted Pair Cables is well-suited for wire and cable harness applications, like:
- avionics/vetronics digital networks
- cabin management systems
- electrical wiring interconnection system (EWIS)
- Ethernet backbone
- single-pair Ethernet (SPE) & power over single-pair Ethernet (PoSPE)
- HD camera/video systems
- high-density connectors
- LVDS devices
- sensor/processor interconnects
- serial buses
Our cables can also be terminated with a variety of leading shielded twisted pair connector systems and backshells, like ARINC and MIL-STD-38999 with differential Twinax sizes 8 and 22D contacts.
Our STP cables are designed with a low-profile configuration that’s 30% smaller, reducing their overall weight by as much as 27% compared to standard oval cables.
30% smaller
Lightest-in-Class STP Cables
Gore’s Ultralight shielded twisted pair (STP) cables offer the same high-density construction, signal integrity and mechanical reliability as our standard version, but now lighter weight.
This lightest-in-class version offers more system design flexibility and high-speed performance that engineers trust.
Up to 60% lighter
The Ultralight version of our STP cables are designed with a low-profile configuration that’s 60% lighter than leading alternatives and 27% lighter than our standard design.
