GORE® Protective Vents for Telecommunication Systems
GORE® Protective Vents reliably protect telecommunications equipment against liquid and contaminant ingress, and reduce condensation for lower maintenance and warranty costs.


More Reliable Connectivity with Reduced Manufacturing and Maintenance Costs
GORE® Vents enhance the durability of outdoor telecommunications equipment by managing pressure differentials, minimizing condensation, and reducing stress on housing seals. This leads to lower maintenance costs and fewer warranty claims, while also eliminating the need for ruggedized housings and reducing overall costs and weight.
