PROTECT / CPS / 02

Cable Protection Systems

Crush- and abrasion-resistant, chemically inert ePTFE/PTFE jacket systems package copper and fiber while allowing internal cables to move through complex routes, vibration and harsh fluids.

01 / CONFIGURATION DIRECTIONS

Select a configuration from the application boundaries

These configurations establish a practical discussion starting point. The final product requires a controlled specification based on interface, length, installation and validation conditions.

01

Copper harness protection

External mechanical defense for high-speed data or control harnesses.

02

Fiber bundle protection

Allows fiber movement inside the cover to reduce installation damage.

03

Backshell-integrated system

Compatible with M85049/88 or similar banding-platform backshells.

Match a solution direction to the link target

Solution codes support early technical discussions by aligning protocol, construction, link boundaries and application in one view.

The table covers protection-system material and temperature values; electrical or optical values for the enclosed copper or fiber must be specified separately.

Technical referenceValues are confirmed against category, gauge, length and termination

03 / TYPICAL CONSTRUCTION

From functional core to terminated interface

LAYER 01

Protected cable

Original diameter, temperature, motion and sensitive surfaces are confirmed.

LAYER 02

Isolation buffer

Reduces imprint, friction and thermal effects from protection materials.

LAYER 03

Main protection

Extruded jacket, ePTFE, fiber or metal braid provides the defense.

LAYER 04

Closure and branch

Sleeving, wrapping, tying or custom branching supports installation and service.

LAYER 05

End restraint

Rings, backshells or strain relief control fray and edge wear.

04 / SELECTION & VALIDATION

Inputs needed to start a custom assessment

SELECTION ITEMINFORMATION TO CONFIRM
01Harness size

Cable count, diameter range and branch layout

02Damage mode

Abrasion, scrape, cut, crush or vibration

03Motion

Relative movement, speed, stroke and bend radius

04Environment

Temperature, fluids, flame, vacuum and cleanliness

05Installation/service

Field fit, removability and connector backshell

06Additional function

EMI suppression, grounding, color and marking

Typical applications

  • Avionics high-speed harnesses
  • Defense-vehicle interconnects
  • Complex pass-through and tight bends
  • Vibration, oil and chemical exposure

Interfaces & delivery

  • Secondary cable or harness covering
  • M85049/88-style backshell direction
  • Custom diameter, branch and end treatment
ENGINEERING NOTE

Secondary protection changes harness diameter, mass, flexibility and cooling and must be assessed with the original cable and routing envelope.
