WIRES Waterproof Cable Assembly Products

Wires provides end-to-end services from design to production, supporting custom cable assemblies for reliable performance across diverse commercial applications.

Waterproof (IP68) RF Cable Assembly

These waterproof coaxial connectors use a combination of O-rings and front seals to achieve IP67/IP68 protection, effectively preventing moisture and fine particle ingress for stable RF performance.

Waterproof D-Sub Rectangular Male Cable Assembly

This cable assembly features a multi-seal design for enhanced environmental protection. In addition to a sealing ring at the connector interface, it uses compression or potting-type sealed cable glands at exit points, along with sealed connector housing joints. It is well suited for aviation, marine, and heavy-duty outdoor equipment where reliable sealing performance is required.

Waterproof M-Type Cable Assembly

These assemblies feature O-ring and front-seal designs to enhance water resistance and sealing performance. They ensure stable device connections and reliable signal transmission in demanding environments.

Custom Waterproof Cable Assembly Services

Based on your application requirements, we manufacture waterproof cable assemblies using multiple termination and sealing methods, supporting protection levels up to IP67/IP68 and operating environments typically ranging from -40°C to 105°C.

For overmolded connectors, we utilize:

  • High-strength waterproof plugs to ensure sealing between conductors, cable jackets, and connectors
  • O-rings and pre-installed sealing gaskets to enhance ingress protection
  • Optimized overmolding processes for improved mechanical strength and long-term durability

For non-molded assemblies, we provide:

  • Cable connectors with diverse sealing solutions, including USB, RF, circular, and D-sub interfaces
  • Potting (resin sealing) techniques for enhanced moisture and dust resistance
  • Panel-mount connectors compatible with sealing gaskets to achieve IP-rated enclosure protection
Custom Waterproof Cable Initial Design

We begin by thoroughly understanding your requirements and collaborating closely during the prototype development stage to validate design feasibility. This ensures the cable assembly maintains stable performance and sealing reliability in harsh environments such as moisture, dust, vibration, and temperature variations.

Frequently Asked Questions

Customers choose WIRES not only for the value we deliver, but also for our responsive and detailed support. Here are some of the frequently asked questions we’ve compiled.
What protection rating do Wires’ waterproof cable assemblies achieve?

Wires provides waterproof cable assemblies with protection levels such as IP67 and IP68, designed to prevent the ingress of moisture and fine particles for reliable operation. Higher protection solutions can also be developed based on your specific application and environmental requirements.

What factors should be considered when designing waterproof wiring harnesses?

When designing waterproof wiring harnesses, the following key factors should be considered to ensure reliable sealing and long-term performance:

  • Waterproof connectors: Selection of connectors with appropriate IP ratings (e.g., IP67/IP68)
  • Sealing methods: Use of O-rings, gaskets, potting (resin sealing), or other waterproof techniques
  • Harness structure: Choosing between semi-encapsulation or loose routing based on application needs
  • Installation design: Proper routing and mounting to avoid stress, gaps, or water ingress points
  • Wire processing: Cutting methods, stripping quality, and whether twisting or shielding is required
  • Termination sealing: Use of waterproof plugs, overmolding, or sealed terminals at connection points
