Nexans aviation cables meet the data transmission challenges of new generation aircraft

20 June, 2011

Nexans is showcasing its latest state-of-the-art data transmission cables developed to meet the ever increasing demand from aircraft manufacturers for enhanced data handling capacity. New data-hungry passenger services such as video on demand, internet connectivity and gaming on new generation aircraft now require more sophisticated onboard communications networks. Space and weight considerations make it difficult to install more cables to carry the increased volume of data. Nexans has therefore responded to this challenge by developing new higher-capacity cables featuring optimized conductors, shielding and armouring. This innovative approach offers the twin benefits of enabling more data to be carried within the same installation footprint as well as helping to reduce the cable weight by 20 to 60 percent against conventional cables of comparable performance.
