Overview
The Aircraft Data Gateway 400 (ADG-400) acts as the gateway for all data that flows into and out of the
avionics and/or cabin system. ADG-400 also provides mass storage functionality for storage of avionics
bus data, maintenance data, databases, operational software and other data the avionics components
may choose to store.
The ADG-400 unit provides a wireless access point for the system, via Wi-Fi or Bluetooth, which enables
short-range connectivity of wireless mobile devices such as a pilot’s EFB or a maintenance laptop. This
external connectivity to avionics data and functions allows applications on these devices to provide
additional functionality for the flight and maintenance crews. Since this data logging functionality is off-
board in uncertified equipment, it can be easily updated with fixes or new functionality. The wireless
access point will be available for both in-air and on-ground operation.
The ADG-400 also provides connectivity to ground-based access points, via Wi-Fi or Cellular, which
enables data transfers through the Internet to and from data center servers. This functionality allows
the automatic (based on configuration) on-boarding and off-boarding of databases, reports, and data
files. These interfaces are available while on-ground only.
Accessories
There are no accessories bundled with this product. Any cabling required to operate the device will be
