Provides Additional Voice and Data Channels to EMS's High-Speed
Data Service on Aircraft
EMS Technologies, Inc. has been
showing their new High-Speed Data Channel Extension for use with
EMS's HSD-128. HSD-X operates in conjunction with an HSD-128
transceiver to provide additional channels of Inmarsat Swift64 and
Mini-M AMBE voice services. One or two HSD-X modules can be added
to the base HSD-128 system, each providing an additional 64 Kbps
voice / data channel.
"We continue to not only lead the market, but also remain at the
forefront of this new technology," said Ray Larkin, director of
Sales and Marketing with EMS Technologies' SATCOM Aeronautical
Group. "EMS has raised the bar yet again in high-performance data
connectivity to business aviation."
The HSD-128 and HSD-X use industry-standard networking protocols
and interfaces, and are easily integrated into the aircraft local
area network (LAN), providing a fast, global, voice and data
link.
With the bi-directional data throughput capability of up to four
64 Kbps channels, capabilities such as sending and receiving
e-mail, surfing the Internet, video conferencing, and accessing
private networks on board commercial, private and military aircraft
are now a reality. Using external connections, all four channels
can be combined into a single 256 Kbps throughput. EMS
Technologies' High-Speed Data Channel Extension is the first
high-speed data solution with up to four Swift64 channels.
The HSD-128 and HSD-X are compatible with all ARINC 741
Aero-H/H+ SATCOM antennas and are ideally matched with the EMS
Technologies AMT-50 antenna.
