DESCRIPTION
The Rockwell Collins VHF-2100 provides reliable high-speed data communications
and voice communication. It's compatible with ARINC 750, operates in ARINC
716 data mode and is equipped to handle today's 25 kHz, 8.33 kHz and VDL Mode
A and Mode 2 communications. The VHF-2100 series of VHF communications transceivers provide all the
features of the highly successful VHF-700/VHF-900/VHF-900B/VHF-920 series
VHFs with the capability for VDL Mode 2 operation. VDL Mode 2 is the newest
high-speed data mode available for AOC and ATC applications featuring a 31.5
kbps digital modulation waveform. In addition the VHF-2100 has VDL Mode 3
expansion capabilities it provides the VHF platform for tomorrow's requirements
minimizing risks associated with the changing regulatory environment. Future ATC and AOC VHF communications will be all digital and the VHF-2100
is the VHF platform capable of today's digital and analog requirements as
well as tomorrow's digital evolution. Increased processor power, expanded
memory, state-of-the-art RF technology and growth slots together give the
assurance that the VHF-2100 platform is designed for tomorrow's airspace requirements. When the all digital voice/data VDL Mode 3 system is introduced by the
FAA the VHF-2100 can be upgraded by a software dataloadable service bulletin
which is already tested and certified today. As VDL Mode 4 requirements evolve
the VHF-2100 platform will be ready to accommodate that functionality when
needed. It is the VHF platform for the VDL Mode 4 NUP+ demonstrations. For military and non-standard aviation applications, versions featuring
an extended frequency range outside the commercial aviation frequency band
are available (VHF-2100E). The VHF-2100 offers these advantages: Demonstrated VDL Mode 2, 3 and 4 performance ARINC 750 and 716 compliant DO-160D Change 3 compliant including HIRF DO-178B level C compliant ARINC 615 data loadable Interchangeable in current installations with Series 700/900
