AQ Wiring Systems Rockford builds high-performance cable assembly solutions for harsh environments. We design, develop and make cable assemblies and wiring harnesses. Our products serve defence, aerospace, space and industrial markets. We deliver reliable connectivity where performance matters most.
We offer flexible delivery models for every project. You can choose build-to-print or build-to-spec. We also build fully custom designs. We provide prototyping, low, medium and high volumes to suit your needs.
Types of Cable Assembly We Build
Enclosed Cable Assemblies
We make enclosed cable assemblies and sealed wiring harnesses. They are built for harsh operating environments. They bring power, signal, data and Ethernet into one sealed unit. This protects your critical electrical systems in tough conditions.
Built for the toughest conditions, our enclosed assemblies give secure connectivity and environmental protection. They perform well across defence, aerospace and industrial use. You get dependable long-term performance every time.
Open Loom Assemblies
We make open-wire cable harnesses for aerospace use. These can include braiding and laser wire marking. They deliver a light solution focused on weight saving. They stay reliable while keeping things light.
RF Cable Assemblies
We make low-loss, phase-matched and high-power RF assemblies. We test them up to 26 GHz. We support many connector types such as BNC, TNC and SMA. We offer solder and crimp terminations for demanding use.
Woven Cable Technology
Our woven cable technology is unique. It creates low-profile and flexible interconnect solutions. These are ideal for complex routing tasks. Each weave is tailored to your needs and saves space.
This approach lets us join many elements in one compact form. We can mix wires, fibre optics and fluid lines. The result is a versatile and space-saving solution for your platform.
Fibre Optic Assemblies
We supply fibre optic cable assemblies for tough markets. We serve defence, aerospace, naval and industrial clients. We supply single-way, duplex and multiway fibre assemblies. We also make expanded beam and armoured fibre solutions.
These solutions support high data throughput and reliable communication. They work in harsh environments. Uses include vehicle platforms, radar systems and underwater systems. They also serve UAV tethers, decoys and sonar equipment.
Power Cable Assemblies
We offer a full power cable assembly service. We support low-voltage systems and heavy-duty power cables up to 150mm². We use crimping, soldering and high-temperature soldering. We fit connectors from leading OEM manufacturers.
We build to last. We test to be sure. You get power cables you can trust.
Wiring Harnesses and Cable Harnesses
Alongside cable assembly, we build complete wiring harnesses. Our wire harnesses bring many wires into one tidy loom. They keep your system organised and safe. This makes fitting simpler and faster on site.
Our cable harnesses are checked at each step of the build. We test what we build before it ships. This keeps faults low and users happy. You get reliable parts that last long in use.
Accreditations and Standards
We hold AS9100D, IPC and Cyber Essentials Plus certifications. These show our focus on quality and security. We apply these standards to every build. You get reliable products every time.
Three UK Manufacturing Sites
We run three UK manufacturing facilities. Our Worksop site makes complex cable assemblies and wiring harnesses. Our Salisbury site adds more capacity. Both focus on quality, reliability and on-time delivery.
Each site offers prototype, low-volume and production services. We share skills across locations. This gives you flexible capacity when you need it most.
Markets We Serve
We supply high-performance electrical solutions for harsh environments. Our cable assemblies support many global markets. We serve defence, aerospace, space and industrial customers. They all demand dependable performance in tough conditions.
Each market has its own needs. We adapt to meet them all. You get a build that fits your platform and your rules.
