Over 100 Delivered For The Lakota LUH Program
The 700th Becker Avionics Digital Voice Communication System
(DVCS) since its initial introduction was delivered this
week. The unit was delivered to American Eurocopter
Corporation for the US Army's UH-72A Lakota Light Utility
Helicopter (LUH) program.
"Becker Avionics is the brand leader in aircraft Digital Audio
and intercom solutions for Helicopter and Fixed-Wing aircraft
applications said Brett Gardner, Director of Sales and Marketing at
Becker Avionics. "The product was initially certified in 2005, as
the first Digital Audio system achieving Technical Standards Order
(TSO), as well as European Technical Standards Order (ETSO)
certification. With 700 systems in operation in a wide range of
installations, performed by a variety of integration and completion
centers, as well as Original Equipment Manufacturers (OEM's) around
the world, the DVCS6100 has become the first choice for
professional grade Digital Audio and intercom systems."
The DVCS6100 design provides the customer with ability to match
a wide range of operational requirements with only one system. The
built-in scalability and flexibility reduces not only the cost and
time requirements for constant re-engineering and certification for
a tailored system solution, but also reduces the learning curve for
integration, maintenance and troubleshooting time. Through software
programming options, the system is both easily and quickly
configurable to individual customer requirements, thus saving time
and money.
Becker says the DVCS' open system architecture technology
provides for operational comfort and superior voice quality,
ensuring that almost any customer requirement can be met, while
providing crystal clear communication for crew and passengers. When
compared to a legacy analog audio system, Becker says digital
technology provides simplified installation, improved performance,
reduced wiring and weight, along with reduced installation and
maintenance costs. Furthermore, the comprehensive built-in-test
(BIT) feature enables line maintenance crews to easily
diagnose/isolate failures and replace system components
quickly.
