Gore Shielded twisted pair cables from W. L. Gore & Associates, Landenberg, Pa., are constructed with uniquely engineered fluoropolymers to significantly reduce weight while maintaining reliable signal integrity for the most demanding environments of civil and military aerospace applications.

These cables maintain high-speed communication between avionics transmitters and receivers and meet the performance requirements of ANSI/NEMA WC27500 Standards for Aerospace and Industrial Electrical Cable, type 24.  They deliver high-speed transmission in a lightweight package due to materials that reduce jacket weight by as much as 37 percent when compared to ethylene tetrafluoroethylene (ETFE) materials and 50 percent when compared to fluorinated ethylene propylene (FEP).

These lighter-weight materials result in smaller cable diameters with a tight bend radius, which ultimately translates to substantially smaller, lighter, and higher-density cable bundles for easy routing in confined spaces, making them especially well-suited for mil/aero harness applications.

Gore Shielded Twisted Pair Cables provide high-speed data transmission over long distances, minimizing the need for additional signal amplification.  Constructed from materials engineered to withstand flight demands, they provide reliable performance in extreme environments, such as extreme temperatures ranging from –55° to 200°C, including rapid temperature changes encountered during take-off and landing. They also meet FAA requirements for flammability, smoke and toxicity.
