Honeywell and Embraer have worked jointly to install Honeywell’s Aircraft Data Gateway 400 (ADG-400) on all of Embraer’s new E2 commercial jets, with an option to retrofit first-generation E1 models. With this solution, operators can wirelessly transfer critical flight and maintenance data to and from their aircraft more quickly and efficiently than before.
The ADG-400 packages several key technologies into one scalable solution that enables a variety of connected aircraft solutions. Honeywell’s Aircraft Data Gateway consists of a wireless LSAP (Loadable Software Aircraft Part) loader, quick access recorder and data communications capabilities. It enables database and software updates without wired connections. Furthermore, the ADG-400 helps offload aircraft data to analyze, troubleshoot and predict maintenance and performance issues, which helps operators maintain their aircraft and avoid unexpected downtime.
