The 2-Channel ARINC-664 Network Interface Module is a powerful dual-channel avionics communication interface designed for integration within Cube I/O chassis, providing robust ARINC 664 Part 7 connectivity for unmanned and aerospace platforms. Configurable as two independent channels or one dual-redundant link, it supports 10/100/1000BASE-T Ethernet, enabling flexible operation in transmit, receive, or full network monitor modes. With advanced features like 10 μs time tagging, automatic error detection, and selective filtering by virtual link (VL), port, or error type, the module delivers precise real-time data handling and integrity checks essential for mission-critical avionics networks.
Designed for both deterministic and asynchronous operation, the module’s transmission engine supports Bandwidth Allocation Gap (BAG) shaping from 1 to 128 ms, handling Unicast and Multicast VLs with ease. It enables detailed traffic scheduling, consecutive or user-defined sequence numbers, and even deliberate error injection for simulation and testing scenarios, including logical, timing, ARINC 664, and Airbus-specific variants. The monitor mode captures full UDP traffic or filtered network data, with extensive onboard statistics gathering. This rugged, high-performance module is ideal for next-generation uncrewed systems requiring dependable avionics network integration and real-time control.
