Considering the Total Aircraft Ethernet Application
At the beginning of a design project, it is valuable to view interconnects holistically as part of the system. Every connection counts in reducing aircraft SWaP and ensuring Ethernet network reliability. When implementing an SPE interconnect solution, network designers and EWIS engineers can draw upon an integrated family of products described under aerospace ARINC standards. Qualified manufacturers can offer practical insights into designing, manufacturing, and implementing all of the components along the wire of the connected aircraft, including sensors, monitors, IFE systems, video transceivers, Wi-Fi antennas, data links, and more. By achieving the optimum balance between performance, cost, and SWaP, designers can ensure their aircraft Ethernet connectivity project will perform smarter and lighter.
