Data Sheet: GORE® CAN Bus Cables for Aircraft
Data Sheets, English
Modern digital networks demand aerospace wire and cable that deliver high-speed data transfer with quality signals. At the same time, a rugged, compact design is essential for installation in aerospace environments where conditions are harsh and space is limited. GORE CAN Bus Cables for Aircraft from W. L. Gore & Associates offer a slim design that makes installation simple paired with rugged construction to ensure fast, accurate data transmission for the life of the aircraft.
Cable Performance and Specifications
Our controlled-impedance, 120 ohm GORE CAN Bus Cables for Aircraft are 40% smaller than comparable cables, offering a slim, light design for improved flexibility and reduced bend radius. The multi-layer design utilizes an engineered fluoropolymer jacket and a braided shield for defense against challenging environments. They also deliver the following benefits:
Compact Footprint
The compact footprint of these aviation cables, as well as their reduced diameter and enhanced flexibility, makes for trouble-free installation in tight aircraft areas.
High-Speed Capability
Our design also makes GORE Can Bus Cables for Aircraft compatible with many high-speed aerospace and defense connector systems and backshells, like ARINC and MIL-STD-38999 with size 8 and 22D contacts. Please contact the specific manufacturer such as Amphenol® and Glenair® for exact part numbers, tooling information, and termination instructions.
Meeting Rigorous Standards across Several Applications
Our high data rate cables are built for long lifespan in a variety of challenging environmental conditions and wide range of applications.
