Due to operating conditions in space that are the harshest imaginable, space programs must have complete confidence that the cables connected to critical systems will continue to perform under that stress. And because repairs are not easy to make outside of planet Earth, these cables must not only be rugged but also boast decades of proven success. That’s where GORE® Space Cables for Traditional Space Applications from W. L. Gore & Associates come into play.

For decades, W. L. Gore & Associates has served as a trusted partner to hundreds of spaceflight programs, delivering failure-free performance through GORE® Space Cables and Assemblies. They are suitable for a range of low Earth orbit (LEO) and geostationary Earth orbit (GEO) applications, from satellites that help forecast weather to launchers that transport payloads from Earth’s surface to orbit. Gore’s cables and assemblies are also ideal for use in deep space exploration telescopes, helping astronomers observe the most distant events and objects in the universe.

As space exploration continues to evolve, the industry’s critical communication systems require cables that keep up with ever-increasing data transmission speeds. With decades of proven performance, W. L. Gore & Associates’ GORE® High Speed Data Cables for XAUI RapidIO™ protocol in traditional space applications answer the call. They offer reliable high-speed data transmission with ultra-low skew to ensure the success of every mission.
