We construct GORE Fiber Optic Cables with rugged features that safeguard against complex routing and maintenance activities and harsh-environment missions, including:

• Impact- and crush-resistant buffering systems
• chemically inert and temperature-resistant materials
• slender, light cable diameters

For system architects and engineers, our mil-spec fiber optic cable solutions provide a handful of benefits that enhance system performance and longevity, like:

• secure, high-bandwidth data and video transfer with low optical loss up to 100+ Gb/s
• proven resistance to high impact, crushing, abrasion, vibration, shock and more
• proven to exceed new stringent EN4641-301 and JN1177 durability requirements
• easier, faster routing with more flexibility and tighter bend capability
• valued weight and space savings in combat aircraft, vehicles and tanks
• variety of single-mode & multi-mode core types from OM1 to OM5
• compatible with a variety of high-speed connector systems and backshells

GORE Fiber Optic Cables balance strength, small size, less weight and high flex compared to alternatives. We offer several Simplex versions with single-mode and multi-mode core types up to OM5 to meet many application needs. Delivering strong signals, each version can easily accommodate the military’s bandwidth-intensive requirements supporting next-gen data and video architectures.

Unlike alternatives, we bring a higher level of rugged protection that shields the fiber core from rigorous installation, crushing force, high-intensity vibration, mechanical shock, plus more. All of our versions meet, even exceed, stringent industry standards for fiber optic cable temperature range, durability and optical performance.
