T CAS® TRAFFIC COLLISION  AVOIDANCE SYSTEM-1

T3CAS® TRAFFIC COLLISION AVOIDANCE SYSTEM Advanced safety and ADS-B functionality The ACSS T3CAS is an all-in-one surveillance platform that includes aircraft collision, airborne traffic situational awareness with spacing applications, terrain avoidance and transponder. Integrated Surveillance Solution FLEXIBLE FUNCTIONALITY T3CAS is a single Line Replaceable Unit (LRU) with the flexibility to host any combination of these functions: ADS-B APPLICATIONS > raffic Alert and Collision T Avoidance System (TCAS) > errain Awareness Warning T System (TAWS) > Mode S Transponder with Automatic Dependent Surveillance – Broadcast (ADS-B) Out NEXTGEN TRANSPONDER The T3CAS provides operators with proven performance and reliability of TCAS, Terrain Awareness Warning System (TAWS), Mode S and Automatic Dependent Surveillance Broadcast (ADS-B) functions with the benefits of reduced weight, size, power consumption and costs that comes from an integrated platform. It contains a TCAS II with Change 7.1 software, performance-based Class A TAWS, Mode S Transponder including DO-260B ADS-B Out, and ADS-B IN capability. The T3CAS uses an integrated RF transceiver module; therefore only requiring a single antenna for the TCAS and Mode S functions, reducing weight and cabling. It delivers full functionality in both 6- and 4-MCU sizes, and utilizes the existing TCAS tray and connectors. Airlines choose the T3CAS for it’s proven functionality, lower acquisition and ownership cost – and increased safety and efficiency. > irborne Traffic Situation A Awareness (ATSAW) on Airbus Platforms: • pplications include AIRB, A VSA and ITP > afeRoute+ Retrofit solution S available: • Applications include AIRB,
