Testing Transponders and Distance Measuring Equipment (DMEs)
Wichita, KS and AEA International Convention and Trade Show, Dallas-Booth #827–Cobham AvComm, formerly Aeroflex AvComm business unit, has announced the introduction of the ATC-5000NG NextGen ATC/DME Test Set which will be demonstrated at the AEA International Convention and Tradeshow in Dallas, April 8-11, 2015.
Designed for engineering development, design validation, manufacturing and return-to-service test applications, the ATC-5000NG is the replacement product for the legacy SDX-2000 and the ATC-1400A/S-1403DL. The software defined radio architecture supports more transponder RTCA DO-181E test capability than the legacy products did and has new capability needed to support the FAA’s NextGen test requirements including ADS-B (RTCA DO-260B) and UAT (RTCA DO-282).
“We are excited to introduce the new ATC-5000NG which offers our customers the most comprehensive test set available in the market today. This will help our customers prepare for new requirements driven by the FAA’s NextGen and Europe’s SESAR Projects”, said Ryan Panos, VP and General Manager of Cobham AvComm.
