Rockwell Collins Receives ADS-B Approval For TDR-94/94D Transponders

First-Ever Certified Compliant With RTCA DO-260A

Rockwell Collins has received the first FAA Technical Standard Order TSO-C166 approval for ADS-B functionality on Mode-S transponders. This approval enables enhanced traffic situational awareness on the airport surface and during flight; visual acquisition for see and avoid, sequencing and merging, crossing and passing operations, and oceanic in-trail procedures.

Rockwell Collins TDR-94/94D (-108 versions) are the first transponders to be fully compliant with the international RTCA DO - 260A standard. The implementation of this standard ensures the integrity and accuracy of data necessary to fully support future surveillance applications proposed for airspace modernization, including Air Traffic Control surveillance in en-route, terminal area, non-radar area and surface movement domains.
 
In addition, Rockwell Collins TDR 94/94D transponders are approved by the European Aviation Safety Agency (EASA) in accordance with ETSO-2C112A and are compliant with the latest draft ETSO-2C112B standards to support both Elementary and Enhanced Surveillance. Elementary and Enhanced Surveillance allows the transponder to reply to ground-based Secondary Surveillance Radar interrogations supplying air traffic controllers with enhanced surveillance information. The TDR-94/94D continues to support TCAS II functions.

Operators with existing Pro Line radio installations can update the TDR-94/94D transponders through appropriate service bulletins.
