Data Sheet: GORE® Coaxial Cables (75 Ohms) for Aerospace & Defense
Data Sheets, United States
High-tech systems require countless sensors that depend on cables to transmit critical video as clearly as possible throughout flights and missions. W. L. Gore & Associates builds a reliable solution that meets the prerequisite while saving valuable weight and reducing operating costs. GORE Coaxial Cables optimize performance up to 6 GHz with controlled impedance in commercial airliners or defense aircraft and vehicles. With improved durability and protection, they exceed stringent industry requirements while also meeting SMPTE standards.
Cable Performance & Specifications
Designed specifically for 4K video interface systems, GORE Coaxial Cables (75 Ohms) for Aerospace & Defense offer OEMs what they’ve been asking for — a lightweight, reliable cable that maintains controlled impedance at 75 ohms during flights and missions. These cables have been proven to optimize signals and video transmission with ultra-low loss up to 6 GHz despite challenging environmental conditions and mechanical forces. They also deliver numerous other benefits compared to standard legacy RG alternatives, including:
ADDED RUGGEDNESS
Durability is improved significantly with Gore’s strong engineered fluoropolymer outer jacket, braided shield, a helically wrapped silver-plated copper outer conductor and expanded polytetrafluoroethylene (ePTFE) dielectric. These rugged layers allow our coaxial cables to easily resist fluctuating temperatures from -55 °C to +200 °C, changing weather patterns, high abrasion, hazardous chemicals and more. Providing superior shielding effectiveness over 100 at dB through 2 MHz, they also reduce RF interference among critical electronics.
VALUABLE WEIGHT SAVINGS
Without jeopardizing their mechanical strength and electrical reliability, GORE Coaxial Cables (75 Ohms) for Aerospace & Defense offer a lighter-weight design with smaller diameters, saving valuable weight in civil aircraft or military aircraft and vehicles. And unlike legacy RG coaxial cables, you can flex and bend Gore’s cables tighter, making them easier and faster to route in crowded areas surrounding avionics and vectronics.
Exceeding Stringent Requirements across Several Applications
GORE Coaxial Cables (75 Ohms) for Aerospace & Defense have undergone substantial qualification testing to ensure they transmit reliable 4K signals and video. Along with meeting the Society of Motion Picture and Television Engineers (SMPTE) standards, they exceed the following stringent requirements:
- FAR Part 25, Appendix F, Part I: Flammability
- MIL-C-17G: Cables, Radio Frequency, Flexible and Semi-Rigid
Their compliance and optimized signal performance make our coax cables an ideal replacement for legacy RG alternatives in avionics and vectronics displays, high-definition streaming camera and video systems, as well as remote-controlled turret cameras.
