Fiber Optic Solutions for Aerospace Industry

Aerospace as an industry encompasses both military and commercial aircraft, spacecraft, unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs), and other general aviation segments such as on-ground systems, air traffic control, and more.

All these segments require robust communication systems and network devices that work across huge distances sometimes far away from earth. A space station on the ground must communicate with a spacecraft beyond earth’s atmosphere and into the space.

It is also for communication among crew in aircraft with the ground staff and air traffic controllers. All of this communication must be seamless, considering the gravity of loss if anything goes wrong.

All of this goes almost beyond the scope of legacy systems and copper cable networks, and this is where aerospace fiber optics works well. VERSITRON offers a number of network devices for aerospace fiber optic applications.

VERSITRON's Fiber Optic Solutions for Aerospace Applications

Our Specialized aerospace fiber optics solutions offer improved communication, precision, and safety. Here are some of our product offerings which can be customized to suit the requirements of aerospace fiber optic applications.

  • 4-Wire Analog Telephone Modems: Fighter aircraft function in extreme weather conditions and topographies. Hence, sensing through radar systems and communicating the same via transmitters and receivers is crucial. We offer 4-wire analog telephone modems, also known as Audio FOM II Modem, which enables the sophisticated electronic devices on the aircraft to function properly. They provide a fiber optic link for two 4-wire analog telephone lines to enhance speed and communication quality, regardless of the distance. These modems enable seamless communication between the control center and aircraft possible without any interference.
  • MicroModems: We offer the MicroModem product series for reliable transmission and reception of data in a compact package with full handshaking signals. The MicroModems M82xxD series ensures safe and reliable operations at airports. Both pilots and air traffic controllers alike are dependent on numerous systems of light, markings, and signs. M82xxDs help transmit RS-232 switch control signals over fiber. This enables secure transmission of these crucial control signals over long distances with complete isolation from lightning strikes and EMI/RFI disturbances.
  • Video Transmission Systems: VERSITRON’s fiber optic video transmission systems protect mission-critical data, and offer signal transmission over long distances with amazing clarity. We also offer video installation kits comprising transmitters, receivers, power supplies, and so on which can be easily installed.
  • Fiber Optic Network Switches: We offer a variety of commercial and industrial network switches that offer connectivity to fiber as well as copper cables, based on the type of ports they have. They are integral to the data packet forwarding process over long distances.
  • Media Converters: These devices work as an interface between electric and light pulse signals. They facilitate signal conversion and connect two dissimilar networks. You can blend fiber optics with existing legacy systems at airports, base stations, and more.
