ARINC 664/AFDX® Gateway to Gigabit Ethernet

The ÆSyBus 664 Module provides a unique high performance means to interface ARINC-664 data bus from any serious computer and operating system using standard Gigabit Ethernet and UDP/IP protocol. It avoids the possible processing bottlenecks, common to many AFDX / ARINC-664 interface solutions by automatically distributing incoming messages on to a network of distributed computers communicating in full duplex mode at 1000 M bits /s. (Ten times the speed of AFDX/ ARINC-664).

The concept is novel. The ÆSyBus 664 Module sits between an AFDX/ ARINC-664 network and a standard Gigabit Ethernet network providing the function of a Gateway which captures assigned messages on one network and automatically translates them into messages on the other network, while rigorously following appropriate protocol requirements. The consequence is that many networked computers have a simple and direct access to AFDX/ ARINC-664 network, to send and receive messages, monitor network events, insert and detect faults. In fact all the requirements necessary to thoroughly Test and Monitor AFDX/ ARINC-664 network activity and communicated with aircraft equipment.
