Applications for Harbour's Cable in Military Ground Vehicles

As the premier manufacturer of wire and cable for the military market, Harbour provides diverse product offerings that meet or exceed many design requirements such as high speed data transmission, low insertion loss, or high shielding effectiveness. Harbour's cables have been chosen for use in all types of military ground vehicle subsystems for:

Joint Light Tactical Vehicle (JLTV)
Joint Battlefield Tactical Command Vehicle (JBTC)
M1 Abrams Tank
Stryker Fighting Vehicles
Bradley Fighting Vehicles
Mine-Resistant Ambush Protected Vehicle (MRAP)
High Mobility Multipurpose Wheeled Vehicle (HMMWV)
Family of Heavy Tactical Vehicles (FHTV)
Family of Medium Tactical Vehicles (FMTV)
Light Tactical Vehicles (L-ATV)

Military specifications, written quite some time ago by the US Department of Defense, cover standard and some special purpose cables. Harbour's high performing milspec wire and cables have been recognized for use in exposed situations due to their resistance to abrasion, fluids and weather, and for use over a wide temperature range. However many of these cables aren't suitable for today's advanced systems and applications. Current and future ground vehicles demand Harbour's more sophisticated and highest performing cables for onboard systems such as:

Mission Connectivity
Navigation and Communications
Weapons and Defense
Situation and Aware Systems
Command and Control Systems

While the list of uses and range of products continues to grow, this Military Ground Vehicle Schematic Diagram demonstrates some common applications for Harbour's high performance cables in military vehicle wiring systems.
