Product catalog summary
Overview: The STX 165 and STX 165R are advanced Mode C transponders designed to be lightweight, energy-efficient, and compatible with most popular UAT systems. They are ideal companions for ADS-B UAT installations, offering features such as built-in encoders, pressure altitude display, and icing alerts.
Key Features:
  • Small and lightweight design with low power consumption.
  • Built-in encoder for reduced installation time and cost.
  • Pressure altitude and density altitude readouts.
  • Three timer functions and optional OAT probe input for outside air temperature display.
  • Icing alert feature for enhanced safety.
Technical Specifications:
  • Electrical: Input voltage ranges from 11-33Vdc with varying current requirements depending on voltage. Power output is 200 Watts nominal.
  • Frequency: Transmitter frequency is 1090 MHz, and receiver frequency is 1030 MHz with a sensitivity of -74dBm nominal at a 90% reply rate.
  • Mechanical: Dimensions and weight vary slightly between the panel mount and remote versions.
  • Inputs: Built-in 35K encoder with optional external RS-232 input. Optional OAT probe available for the panel mount version.
  • Environmental: Operates in temperatures from -20°C to +55°C and altitudes from -1000 to 35,000 feet.
  • Certification: Complies with DO160F, DO178B Level C, TSO C74d, and TSO D88b standards.
Additional Information: The STX 165's solid-state transmitter design ensures minimal power requirements and no warm-up time. The remote version, STX165R, can interface with existing navigation systems and is controlled via the RS-232 port. It can be mounted in various orientations, providing flexibility in installation.

STX 165 Mode C Transponder The STX165 is the perfect companion transponder for your ADS-B UAT installation. The STX165 interfaces with most popular UAT systems and sends the transponder squawk code directly from the STX 165 to your UAT transceiver. This single point of entry eliminates the need to enter the squawk code twice and any possible resulting code setting errors. With a UAT Out solution the FAA recommends using a Mode C transponder over a Mode S, to eliminate multiple ADS-B position reporting. The STX 165’s solid state transmitter design provides 200 Watts nominal output with no warm...
