Unrivaled Audio, Video & Data Distribution System for Business Aircraft
Perfect Video
-
AVDS is the only system that uses a distributed network topology without compromising on signal quality.
-
AVDS routes signals at their full uncompressed bandwidth (up to 3Gbps per signal) meaning you get the very best possible quality.
​
-
No losses, no artifacts - HiDef end-to-end
-
No latencies mean computer presentations, AVOD, and video games are welcome on the network.
-
Up/down conversion, frame rate conversion
-
NTSC and PAL signals supported
Crystal clear Audio
-
Over 500 channels of stereo and multichannel digital audio distributed around AVDS network without compromise.
-
It’s easy to see why a distributed network topology is superior to a point-to-point star topology. AVDS offers less cable, less weight, less mess.
Gigabit Ethernet
-
AVDS backbone has Gigabit Ethernet available to any other aircraft system - office, phone, AVOD, etc.
-
Dual Fiber Optic Ring provides fault tolerant architecture. Signal paths continuously monitored and rerouted if fault detected.
-
Light-weight Fiber reduces aircraft wiring and can be run over 1000 meters between AVDS nodes. Fiber backbone is not susceptible to EMI noise induction or ground loops.
-
Works with any CMS—simple control of AVDS network via serial or Ethernet ports. Public Interface Document.
-
Connect a wireless access point and control all the AV functions on any smart phone or tablet.
