Data Sheet: GORE® HDMI Cables (1.4 Cat2/2.0) for Aerospace & Defense
Data Sheets, United States
High-definition video is essential for sophisticated avionics and vectronics, from critical displays in cockpits and combat vehicles to cabin displays for entertainment. GORE HDMI Cables for 1.4 Cat2 and 2.0 protocols from W. L. Gore & Associates support a wide array of video applications with crystal-clear 4K (2160p) resolution and fast signals up to 18 Gb/s. These cable bundles also offer a small diameter and low-weight design to enhance flexibility and make routing much easier for maintainers.
Cable Performance & Specifications
GORE HDMI Cables for Aerospace & Defense offer a low-weight design that includes an engineered fluoropolymer outer jacket, expanded polytetrafluoroethylene (ePTFE) binder, braided shield, color-coded composite dielectric, and either silver-plated copper or SPC alloy conductors. This low-weight cable bundle also brings the following features and benefits:
CRYSTAL-CLEAR, HIGH-DEFINITION DISPLAYS
Our cable bundles for 1.4 Cat2 and 2.0 protocols support a 4K (2160p) video resolution. Over the aircraft and military vehicle lifetime, they also provide outstanding signals at high data and video transfer rates of up to 18 Gb/s. These features yield a richer, clearer viewing experience on displays, where soldiers and flight crews can view critical information and passengers can view in-flight entertainment (IFE).
LOW-WEIGHT, FLEXIBLE CONSTRUCTION
Thanks to their lower weight and smaller cable diameter, our HDMI cable bundles for military or commercial aircraft and defense vehicles increase flexibility with a tighter bend radius, making for less complicated routing in tiny spaces surrounding avionics and vectronics.
Standards Compliance across Various Applications
Airborne, ground combat and maintenance environments demand rugged cables that comply with industry standards for strength and performance. To ensure our HDMI cables deliver total reliability over the aircraft and vehicle lifetime, they’re tested and pre-qualified to ensure compliance with SAE AS4373™ Test Methods for Insulated Electric Wire, as well as the following standards:
- ABD0031 (AITM 3.0005); BSS7239: Toxicity
- ABD0031 (AITM 3.0008B); BSS7238; FAR Part 25, Appendix F, Part V: Smoke Density
- ABD0031 (AITM 2.0005); BSS7230; FAR Part 25, Appendix F, Part I: Flammability
- ANSI/NEMA WC 27500: Environmental Testing, Jacket and Marking
