GORE GTS Series For Smaller Spaces IDC Ribbon Cables

Manufacturer: Gore (日本ゴア)

Made in Japan
Model: GTS Series

Overview of GTS Series

In applications where space is at a premium — like avionics, board-to-board interconnects, peripherals, and mini- and micro-computers — cabling must be efficiently designed while still delivering failure-resistant performance.

The GTS series of GORE IDC (insulation displace connectors) Ribbon Cables provides space savings in these tight-fit applications. Each PTFE-insulated ribbon cable is .025″ high density, able to solve a .050″ pitch assembly crosstalk problem by adding a ground between each conductor in the same amount of space.

Additionally, these double-density cables are RoHS compliant, vacuum compatible and resistant to aging — allowing them to deliver space savings for the long haul.

In electronics with space constraints, our ribbon cables offer half the pitch size, and double the density, of traditional cables.

Features & Benefits of GTS Series

Our space-saving, double-density cables feature:

.025″ pitch
30 AWG or 32 AWG conductors
conductor plating: silver, nickel or unplated
PTFE-insulated ribbon cable
RoHS compliant (2002/95/EC)

The .025” pitch of our ribbon cables solves the crosstalk problem seen in traditional .050” cables.

These features provide manufacturers and end users with a number of benefits over time, including:

space savings
optional signal density
compatibility with vacuums
resistance to aging
