Manufacturing Depth
BUILT DIFFERENT.
DESIGNED HERE.
Our cable and connector capability is not sourced offshore and relabeled. It is designed, assembled, and quality-verified by our Burlington, Iowa team — leveraging decades of RF and electronics manufacturing experience across consumer, commercial, and industrial products.
01
CUSTOM ENGINEERING & CO-DESIGN
Our engineers engage at the schematic level. Bring us your PCB layout, your chassis drawings, and your signal requirements — we'll specify the right conductor gauge, shielding type, connector series, and strain relief geometry to meet your design intent.
02
WEATHERPROOF & ENVIRONMENTAL SEALING
Winegard has built weatherproof connectors for rooftop satellite antennas and outdoor cellular equipment for decades. O-ring sealed F-type, IP67 gland seals, and UV-stable jacketing are standard offerings — not upcharges.
03
RF PERFORMANCE CHARACTERIZATION
Our in-house RF lab — including spectrum analyzers and vector network analyzers — lets us verify insertion loss, return loss, and shielding effectiveness on production cable assemblies. We don't ship blind.
04
VERTICALLY INTEGRATED PRODUCTION
Cable assembly production is co-located with our PCB fabrication, CNC machining, injection molding, and final assembly lines. This means your cable assemblies can ship with the finished product, not weeks later from a different vendor.
05
SCALABLE FROM PROTOTYPE TO PRODUCTION
Whether you need 50 units for a field trial or 50,000 for a product launch, our production systems and quality controls deliver consistent assemblies at every volume level.

THE WINEGARD ADVANTAGE
One Partner.
Complete Execution.
01
70+ YEARS ELECTRONICS EXPERTISE
Winegard has been engineering antennas, cables, and connectivity hardware since 1954. Our cable and connector team doesn't just crimp — they understand the RF, the signal budget, and the system your assembly serves.
02
CO-LOCATED PCB & SYSTEM ASSEMBLY
When your cable assemblies are built in the same facility as your PCB and final product, iteration cycles shrink dramatically. Engineering changes propagate to production in hours, not weeks of back-and-forth with an overseas factory.
03
IN-HOUSE RF VALIDATION
Spectrum analyzers, VNAs, and antenna test infrastructure let us verify cable assembly electrical performance on the production floor — before the product ships to your end customer.
04
RIGOROUS QUALITY SYSTEMS
Our quality management systems deliver consistent, traceable assemblies at every production volume. The 10,000th unit meets the same specification as the engineering sample you qualified.
05
FLEXIBLE ODM & CONTRACT MFG
Bring us a finished design for contract manufacturing, or start with a signal requirement and let our engineers specify the complete assembly. Full ODM flexibility — from concept through production.
06
SCALABLE VOLUME CAPACITY
From 50-unit pilot runs to high-volume production, our Burlington facility and supply chain management scale with your program — without the minimum order quantity walls of offshore manufacturers.
