GA ADS-B Unit Available For Shipping From NavWorx

Company Says Low-Cost Aircraft Traffic And Weather Now Available To GA Pilots

An ADS-B Universal Access Transceiver (UAT) designed to receive subscription-free aircraft traffic and aviation weather described as the industry's first is being shipped by NavWorx, the company announced Wednesday. The NavWorx ADS600-B transceiver reportedly delivers TIS-B traffic and FIS-B weather and flight information to a variety of aircraft electronic displays.

ADS-B brings pilots enhanced situational awareness and improved air traffic safety. The new ADS600-B is designed to capture and display this freely broadcast information directly in the cockpit. The ADS600-B is designed to be fully compliant with FAA TSO-C154c and is FCC Approved. ADS-B UAT equipment uses the 978 MHz frequency providing significantly greater bandwidth than the conventional 1090 MHz, or extended squitter (ES) channel.

With its ADS600-B, NavWorx says it is the only company delivering affordable ADS-B solutions today. The NavWorx ADS600-B, priced at $2,495, allows pilots to receive ADS-B and TIS-B traffic everywhere, not just in the terminal areas. With the ADS600-B, pilots also receive FIS-B weather and flight information services, not available on the 1090ES channel.


NavWorx ADS600-B

NavWorx says it introduced the first portable ADS-B receiver and the first fully-functional ADS-B receiver for experimental and light-sport aircraft in September 2008. The ADS600 product line is designed to be upgradable and compatible with the most commonly used electronic displays. The ADS600 can be installed on both experimental and certified aircraft when it meets the FAA's "portable installation guidelines."
 
ADS-B is considered a key component of NextGen. In May 2010, the FAA mandated equipage of ADS-B Out for aircraft operating in Classes A, B, and C airspace, as well as certain other specified classes of airspace within the U.S. National Airspace System. The FAA also announced it would be accelerating ADS-B coverage efforts in advance of the previously announced 2013 deadline.
 
The NavWorx ADS-600-B provides today's pilots with an unprecedented level of real-time, streaming traffic, weather and flight information services in the cockpit. ADS-B coverage in the U.S. spans from the Northern Central States, along the Eastern seaboard to the Gulf of Mexico. Coverage is also in place in Southwestern States, and along the West Coast.
