Teledyne Storm

Teledyne Storm Microwave is well known not only for quality products but also for quality customer relations based on an on​going commitment to honesty and integrity. Building on the decades of microwave transmission line design experience, Teledyne continues to solve engineers' interconnect problems by combining leading technology with the Storm legacy of responsive, flexible, committed customer service.

Teledyne Storm Microwave, an industry leader in providing advanced cable assemblies and interconnect products around the globe, has a long and proud heritage serving domestic and overseas defense, space and telecom markets since 1978.

Teledyne Storm Microwave has been providing wire, cable, and interconnect solutions since Al Storm founded the company in the early 1950s. One of the early pioneers in the wire and cable distribution business, Teledyne Storm Microwave was among the first to offer value-added services as part of the distribution activity—delivering just what the customer wanted, when they wanted it. Teledyne Storm Microwave soon moved from distribution to manufacturing and, in the late 1970s, Storm Products expanded its operations to include microwave cable and cable assembly products.

Teledyne Storm Microwave also offers phase and amplitude matching, armoring/ruggedizing, and custom cable routing. A dedicated quick-turn prototype team is equipped to produce both connector and cable assemblies in short time frames to help meet challenging schedules. And, our broad range of test & measurement capabilities plays a vital role in delivering reliable, high-performance products at cost-effective prices.

Phase Master®, True Blue®, FlatPhase™ 100 Series and Storm Flex® lines of flexible cable assemblies, and Maximizer™ Gold line of semi-rigid assemblies, have proven track records for providing the performance required by demanding system needs.

Space Applications

Quality and stability are cornerstones of the product line.

Teledyne Storm Microwave’s space flight heritage began in the 1990s when one of Teledyne's military/aerospace customers independently performed space qualification testing on the cables. Since 2010, TSM has dedicated design, engineering, test, qualification and documentation resources to specifically service a growing list of military and commercial space customers. These customers include most of the major US defense contractors and a growing number of Low Earth Orbit and small satellite companies.

High-Performance Applications

RF Coaxial Cable - Validated Reliability.

Teledyne Storm Microwave delivers high frequency single-cable alternatives compliant with stringent environmental, mechanical, and RF performance requirements. For over 35 years, Teledyne Storm cables have been the design-in choice of program design engineers for many mission critical applications.

Teledyne Storm cables are selected for attributes that include phase stability with temperature change, mechanical robustness when exposed to extreme environmental conditions, extended flex-life, and low attenuation for a given cable diameter to be installed in constricted space.

TSM cable can be offered in a number of constructions related to jacket materials, center conductor, dielectric core, outer conductor, and protective braid, as well as in a range of outer diameters based on your desired RF performance compliance requirements. Phase matching​ of assemblies is available on request.

All of these parameters are consideration points in optimizing your cable selection to ensure system performance compliance. Teledyne Storm Harness Engineering Team is available to work with you early in the process to review your system goals and offer support in deciding on the RF interconnects best suited to ensure your milestones are met, and met reliably.
