Power and Data Connectivity Solutions

RITEC designs and manufactures power and data cables to support installation of its products in any operational environment. Power cables are provided for both ac and/or dc system installations. Data cables are provided for industry-standard or custom communication protocols. Cable shielding is integrated as required for the specific application and EMI/EMC environment.

RITEC cables incorporate military and/or industry-standard commercial connectors and termination points. Electrical conductors and contacts are selected to provide a minimum safety and performance margin of 30% relative to component ratings. Cables are designed to maintain specified performance when subjected to EMI/EMC and environmental conditions equal to or exceeding levels required for interconnected equipment.
