ST. AUGUSTINE, Fla., Oct. 17, 2023 – Carlisle Interconnect Technologies (CarlisleIT), a division of Carlisle Companies (NYSE:CSL), announced today the launch of its ECS Lightning series avionics coax, which adds two new 50 Ω coaxial cables to its existing trusted lineup of ECS avionics cables.
CarlisleIT has innovated its avionics coax solutions to provide maximum performance in an extremely low weight cable. The two cables have silver-coated copper-clad aluminum conductors and helical aluminum shields to decrease the weight of the coax and minimize attenuation. The Lightning series cables bring your signals through loud and clear without adding unwanted pounds.
“Carlisle Interconnect Technologies is always pushing the limits of performance werwerwe with our avionics coax products,” said Jeff Behlendorf, product manager at CarlisleIT. “The ECS brand cables have been the choice of aircraft manufacturers, avionics OEMs, and MROs for decades and the Lightning series continues to push limits even further with unmatched performance and industry-leading weight reduction.”
With its unique construction, the Lightning series improves on the performance of trusted ECS brand cables and maintains the trusted reliability of CarlisleIT products by delivering high output under challenging aircraft conditions without compromising integrity. Each new cable has 24 standard connector options and comes with a laser-markable outer jacket to easily customize cable legends without secondary labelling.
Visit CarlisleIT’s booth, #N3207 at the 2023 NBAA Business Aviation Convention & Exhibit to view samples of the Lightning series.

SCOTTSDALE, ARIZONA, December 12, 2022 - Carlisle Companies Incorporated (NYSE:CSL) today announced a commitment to achieve Net-Zero greenhouse gas emissions across its entire value chain by 2050. Carlisle has proposed near-term greenhouse gas reduction targets through the Science Based Targets Initiative (SBTi). Setting near-term targets is the first step to setting a long-term net-zero target with SBTi. The methods and reduction scenarios Carlisle has adopted in the near-term targets are aligned with the SBTi Net-Zero Standard.
The SBTi is a partnership among the Carbon Disclosure Project, the United Nations Global Compact, the World Resources Institute, and the World Wide Fund for Nature. It focuses on partnering with companies to help guide emission reduction initiatives using science-based targets.
Chris Koch, Chair, President and Chief Executive Officer, said, “Our announcement today of Carlisle’s commitment to achieve Net-Zero by 2050 is another significant milestone on our ESG journey. We understand the path to Net-Zero cannot happen overnight, requires substantial effort from our supply chain partners, and will also depend on significant changes to global energy infrastructure.
We continue our commitment to being a responsible environmental stakeholder, as we have for over 100 years, by delivering products that improve the energy efficiency of buildings, while reducing emissions from our manufacturing facilities and reducing the volume of construction materials in landfills. With Carlisle’s employees engaged and momentum growing, we are confident Carlisle can make a meaningful contribution to creating a more sustainable future for us all.”

AUGUSTINE, FL., September 21, 2022 – Carlisle Interconnect Technologies (CarlisleIT), a division of Carlisle Companies (CSL), added new Lightweight, High-Speed, Digital Data Cable MX10G-24-ALW to its Gigabit-Plus™ line of Ethernet cables.
Designed for aerospace applications, the new 100 Ω 1-10 G Base-T Ethernet cable features a round aluminum shield instead of the standard copper-based shield, which allows substantial weight savings without sacrificing temperature rating or electrical performance.
“With the ever-present challenge of reducing aircraft weights, demand is rising for lighter constructions that still offer the same performance,” said CarlisleIT Product Manager Allen Schaefer. “From Commercial OEMs to AAM development projects, there is a need in the aerospace marketplace for reduced weight to save fuel and power, as well as a need to support the increasing amounts of data being transferred. We are offering some of the lightest constructions on the market without sacrificing any features.”
Features and benefits include:
This cable joins NETflight® series wire, NF24Q100-01-DL-ALW, a lightweight 100 Base-T Ethernet quad cable, as another option to optimize aircraft weights while maintaining performance.

AUGUSTINE, FL., June 23, 2022 –Carlisle Interconnect Technologies (CarlisleIT), a division of Carlisle Companies (CSL), released two new high-voltage composite wire families for aerospace applications: a high-voltage composite wire family and an ultra-flexible high-voltage shielded composite wire family. These 1,000-volt composite wire families offer lighter weight and smaller diameters compared to similar extruded constructions in applications up to 260 °C.
Both wire families have exceptional installation characteristics, including Seamless Wrap PTFE jacket technology which offers the advantages of a tape wrap with a smooth outer surface. They also feature a high-strand-count, nickel-plated copper conductors for enhanced flexibility and routing capabilities.
“These new high-voltage composite wire families are joining our existing family of extruded products,” said Tom Turner, Product Manager for CarlisleIT. “Together, they solve the common problems EWIS engineers encounter in designing power distribution systems. Our high-voltage extruded family solves termination issues with their exceptional stripability, while our two new high-voltage composite wire families address wear issues with their chafing resistance, facilitate installation with their small diameter, and help meet design goals with their light weight.”

ST. AUGUSTINE, Fl., June 9, 2022 – Carlisle Interconnect Technologies (CarlisleIT), a division of Carlisle Companies (CSL), is featuring new satellite communications products for commercial aviation at the AIX 2022 show in Hamburg, Germany, including the Ka1717 Adapter Plate, Skirt, Radome and ThinKom’s proprietary VICTS antennas in partnership with ThinKom, and the Integrated Adapter Plate and Thermal Management System in partnership with Gilat Satellite Networks. CarlisleIT will be present throughout the show at stand number 4B40.
The Ka1717 platform is geared toward regional jets, single aisle, and VVIP aircraft to enable connectivity for passengers and support high-bandwidth services such as streaming, collaboration tools, messaging platforms, and social media. It features a low-profile radome for reduced drag as well as a new, simplified adapter plate design, all to significantly reduce weight, operational costs and initial investment for operators. CarlisleIT provides installation design, certification services, and kit manufacturing to support the integration of the system equipment provided by ThinKom.
“This antenna addresses performance limitations that do not meet today’s connectivity requirements, especially for regional jets,” said Chris Rawley, product line manager for aircraft connectivity solutions at CarlisleIT. “We are investing in a Satcom installation package for what we believe is an underserved market, and we are bringing high-bandwidth connectivity to fleets that are currently limited to low-performing air-to-ground (ATG) systems.”
CarlisleIT’s Integrated Adapter Plate and Thermal Management System (TMS), is a custom installation package design which accommodates fully-functional ESAs developed and tested by Gilat Satellite Networks for use with multiple satellite constellations. The TMS can easily be scaled to interface with other Electronically Steered Array antennas and provides a low-profile, compact installation, supporting gate-to-gate SATCOM operability.
“The integration of the CarlisleIT thermal management system into the adapter plate structure combined with Gilat’s ESA terminal demonstrates a solution that fits on smaller aircraft with a compact antenna footprint, yet surpasses connectivity performance expectations,” said David Grice, business development manager at CarlisleIT. “With both installation packages, we are excited to demonstrate the power of partnering with companies creating the latest technologies, like ThinKom and Gilat, and integrating them into the ever-changing landscape as it develops.”
CarlisleIT’s vertical integration allows them to provide interconnect solutions encompassing every facet of design and production – from component manufacturing to fully-integrated engineered solutions – for a variety of product needs. CarlisleIT leads the market in aerospace SATCOM installation solutions, with over 2,500 installations delivered worldwide.
