SwiftBroadband Safety for Business Jets

Product catalog summary

Overview: The document discusses the SwiftBroadband Safety (SB-S) systems, AVIATOR 300D and 350D, designed for business jets to ensure FANS 1/A compliance. These systems provide a secure, broadband-speed connection for both cockpit and cabin, essential for transatlantic flights where traditional communication methods are limited.

Specifications:

AVIATOR 300D: Offers up to 332 kbps data speed, weighs 10 kg, and includes a fuselage mount electronically steered antenna (IGA-5001).
AVIATOR 350D: Provides up to 432 kbps data speed, weighs 8.2 kg, and includes a high gain antenna (HGA-6000).

System Architecture: The systems feature a simple architecture with a built-in ACARS Aero Gateway for messaging over Inmarsat’s SB-S network. They are easy to install with a 2 MCU SBU and flange-mount HLD.

Features:

Simultaneous FANS, voice, and cabin data capabilities.
Built-in 6 port router and WLAN.
Supports ICAO voice via external dialler.
DO178B Level D software and DO254 Level D hardware compliance.

Interfaces:

Cockpit: Includes 2 x 2-Wire Voice, Wired Ethernet (LAN), 1 x CMU, and 1 x ATSU.
Cabin: Features a built-in SIP server for VOIP calls, 2 x 10/100 Mbit Ethernet ports, and 802.11a/b/g/n access point.

Upgrades and Compatibility: The systems offer significant size, cost, and weight savings over legacy solutions and are compatible with existing antennas like HGA-6000 series and Honeywell’s AMT-50 and AMT-700.

Additional Information: The document also provides detailed specifications for various components such as the SwiftBroadband Unit (SBU), High Power Amplifier, Low Noise Amplifier, and Diplexer (HLD), and antenna options.

SwiftBroadband Safety for Business Jets-2

FANS 1/A compliant global, secure, broadband-speed connection for the cockpit & cabin. Without a FANS 1/A compliant system, soon the higher skies across the Atlantic will be off limits. Over oceanic routes, radar and traditional comms such as high frequency radio are very limited. Satcom technology is now widely used in oceanic airspace around the world to meet the RCP (Required Communications Performance) and RSP (Required Surveillance Performance) of operating in that airspace. If you cross the Atlantic more than a couple of times a year, it will be impractical not to use FANS routes. Many...
