Product Highlights

Ace Flight™ 4783 MODMAN

Kontron’s AF4783 MODMAN has been designed in accordance

with ARINC 791/792 and has the unique ability to support two

different SATCOM modems without any compromise or fea-

ture limitations. The MODMAN also includes an Intel® Xeon®

6-Core processor, L2+ Managed Ethernet Switch, cellular mo-

dem, ARINC 429 and fixed/removable storage options. The dual

integrated satellite modem approach eliminates the need for

a second MODMAN to be installed onto the aircraft thus re-

moving weight, cost and complexity while still allowing the

aircraft the ability to utilize different satellite operators by

selecting the appropriate modem during flight. Kontron has

designed its Ace Flight™ 4783 MODMAN product family to sup-

port the different modem configurations (Taurus HB & Jupiter 3,

Taurus HB only or Jupiter 3 only). This product line has been

rigorously tested and qualified to DO-160G environmental

conditions for airborne applications.
