Paris Air Show 2005: Rockwell Collins New SATCOM System Debuts On Global 5000

Rockwell Collins new SAT-6100 satellite communication system is making its debut aboard the high-speed Bombardier Global 5000 corporate jet this week. The new system is a baseline component of Rockwell Collins first-ever Ethernet-based Airshow 21 Cabin Electronic System.

“The SAT-6100 system represents a breakthrough for customers seeking real time information and connectivity in a compact, light weight product. Its capability is unmatched for a system of its weight and size,” said Denny Helgeson, vice president and general manager, Business and Regional Systems for Rockwell Collins.

The SAT-6100 is comprised of the Rockwell Collins SRT-2100 – a single compact unit – along with one or two Rockwell Collins HST-2100 High-Speed Transceivers providing three Aero-I/H/H+ channels, and one or two channels of Swift64 high-speed data service.

A 50-watt high-power amplifier improves system performance and allows simultaneous usage of two voice channels and two high-speed data channels providing Internet, e-mail, fax and digital phone service to the aircraft, as well as one low-speed data channel for ICAO safety services. Future functionality will include Inmarsat's Swift Broadband capabilities allowing data transmission at speeds up to 432 kbps.

The SAT-6100 interfaces with all Inmarsat-approved high-gain antennas using the ARINC 741 standard, including top- or fin-cap mounted antennas and the latest conformal antenna packing Aero-H capability in Aero-I size. In addition, the SAT-6100 can be used with any Inmarsat-approved intermediate gain antenna to accommodate Aero-I service. The system is capable of STE and STU-III secure communication and can also be integrated with a wide variety of cabin equipment for telephone, fax and PC data creating a flexible voice and data communication system.
