A broad range of multi-channel harness solutions for a wide variety of projects & programs​

 Solutions comprise harnesses ranging from basic bundled RF cable interconnects to sophisticated “fan-out” designs calling for stringent RF matching, complex housings, and multi-channel connectivity compliance.​​​

Multi-channel interconnect solutions provide the user with a number of key benefits including:

• Reduced Installation Time
• Accurate Channel Mating Conditions
• Controlled RF Performance
• Higher Density in a given space
• Fast Connect/Disconnect through keyed coupling mechanisms

There are ever increasing requirements for harnesses suited to higher frequency applications and utilizing smaller size coax. In line with this, it is critical to observe RF performance parameters such as shielding effectiveness and additive phase noise, and ensure RF coupling or adjacent channel coupling between contacts is minimized to acceptable levels.

Signal continuity and signal integrity must be maintained at all times in mission critical applications. In this regard, the harness connectivity solution can be viewed as the RF umbilical link between components of the platform.

Maintaining reliable RF connectivity performance while reducing contact density and maximizing real estate continues to be a challenging evolution in providing harness interconnects. Teledyne Storm's dedicated Harness Engineering Team is addressing these challenges for both today’s and tomorrow’s connectivity requirements.

We are available to engage early in your design process to guide you through the RF performance recommendations, materials selection, and environmental withstand requirements that are essential to ensure program reliability.​​​

In many installations and deployments, cables are subjected to harsh environments. These environments may involve mechanical stresses on the cable, such as crushing, tension, shock, vibration, and bending. Or, the stress may come from such things as temperature extremes, chemicals, water, sand, humidity, and dust.

Since any of these forces can increase the likelihood of cable failure or degraded performance, it's important to know not only how environmental factors will impact cables but also how best to protect them.

Teledyne Storm Microwave has in-depth experience in this area and the necessary expertise to deliver both individual cable and full harness constructions capable of withstanding harsh environments while at the same time offering high levels of reliability.

Examples of some of these constructions are shown above; many variants are available, tailored to your specific application. Teledyne Storm has earned a positive reputation for risk reduction and reliability in our products by being able to adapt our knowledge of materials, support housings used in our harness product line, connector designs, and termination processing, to deliver reliable engineered solutions​
