pingStation 3 is a weatherproof dual-band (978MHz and 1090MHz) ADS-B receiver designed for both permanently-mounted and roaming applications.
It provides ground, surface, or low-altitude ADS-B surveillance within line-of-sight of the antenna up to 200NM away. Multiple pingStations can be networked together to provide a wide area low-altitude surveillance capability.
The integrated GPS receiver provides position and precision time-stamping for multilateration and messaging. Data messages are available in multiple formats for easy integration into custom applications.
The robust unit, housed in an IP67-rated protective enclosure, provides easy mounting and installing, requiring only a single Power-Over-Ethernet (POE) cable for power and data communications.
