Military ground vehicles operate in some of the toughest electrical environments, where vibration, abrasion, oil, fuel, temperature extremes and electromagnetic interference can all threaten system reliability. Alpha Wire Xtra-Guard® Performance Cable is engineered for these conditions, providing rugged signal, control and data transmission for mission-critical vehicle electronics.
Designed using Alpha Wire’s hazard-matched approach, the Xtra-Guard range enables engineers to select the right construction for the application. Xtra-Guard 1 provides dependable PVC-jacketed performance for general-purpose communication and control circuits, while Xtra-Guard 2 adds a tough polyurethane jacket for superior resistance to abrasion, tearing and oils. For more demanding vehicle installations, Xtra-Guard 4 uses TPE insulation and jacketing for advanced chemical performance and extended temperature capability, and Xtra-Guard 5 offers FEP insulation and jacket materials for maximum resistance to fuels, solvents and hazardous operating conditions.
Shielded options, including Alpha Wire’s Supra-Shield® foil and braid construction, help protect sensitive vehicle systems from EMI/RFI noise, supporting reliable communications, command and control, radar, target acquisition, automated weapons control, IED and mine detection, and unmanned vehicle platforms. With a broad choice of conductor counts, gauges, jacket materials and shielding configurations, Xtra-Guard cables give defence system designers the flexibility to balance space, weight, durability and performance.
