Avidyne Extends Ads-B Product Portfolio

Adds MLX200 & MLX210 978MHz Transceivers

Avidyne Corporation, a leading provider of integrated avionics and safety systems for general aviation aircraft, today announced they have expanded their ADS-B 978 Series of Automatic Dependent Surveillance-Broadcast (ADS-B) solutions to include the MLX200 and MLX210 transceivers.

Both products are designed for Avidyne customers flying below 18,000 feet in Continental United States (CONUS) airspace who wish to meet the upcoming mandate for ADS-B OUT, and also to receive FIS-B weather and Traffic via ADS-B IN on their Avidyne displays.

“Avidyne has continued to expand our ADS-B product offerings and we are excited to bring the MLX200 and MLX210 to market,” said Dan Schwinn, Avidyne’s CEO. “In addition to our new IFD440 and IFD540 customers, we have a huge installed base of EX500, EX600 and EX5000 MFD customers who can now use these products to comply with the ADS-B mandate and display FIS-B weather and traffic.”

The MLX200 provides 978MHz ADS-B IN and ADS-B OUT which can be displayed on Avidyne’s IFD540 and IFD440 GPS/NAV/COMs, and also on an Avidyne EX500, EX600 or EX5000 Multi-Function display (MFD).  The IFD540 and IFD440 provide a compliant GPS source needed for ADS-B.

The MLX210 is the same as the MLX200 except it also has a compliant GPS sensor built it. It is designed for customers with an Avidyne EX500, EX600 or EX5000 MFD, but without a compatible or compliant GPS.

Avidyne previously announced their MLB100 ADSB-IN Receiver that is designed for IFD540 or IFD440 customers who want ADS-B IN, and they are equipping with an Avidyne AXP340 Mode S Transponder with 1090MHz ADS-B OUT. The MLB100 provides a great FIS-B weather and traffic solution for aircraft flying above 18,000 feet in the CONUS.  Release 10.1 software is required in the IFD540 and IFD440 in order for them to display ADS-B information.
