VHF-4000 VHF Communication Transceiver

Overview

The Rockwell Collins VHF-4000 provides digital voice and high-speed data communications using VHF Data Link (VDL) Mode 2. 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 communications. The VHF-4000 also offers an all-digital audio design, which dramatically reduces noise interference when compared with analog audio. For military and non-standard aviation applications, versions featuring an extended frequency range outside the commercial aviation frequency band are available.

And as communication requirements continue to evolve, so will the VHF-4000. It’s positioned to be compatible with upcoming VDL Mode 3 standards, making sure you’re equipped for whatever the future may bring.
