AVDS™ | AUDIO VIDEO DISTRIBUTION SYSTEM

Perfect Video
AVDS is the only system that uses a distributed network topology without compromising on signal quality.
AVDS routes signals at their full uncompressed bandwidth (up to 3Gbps per signal) meaning you get the very best possible quality.
​
-
No losses, no artifacts - HiDef end to end
-
No latencies mean computer presentations, AVOD, and video games and are welcome on the network.
-
Up/down conversion, frame rate conversion
-
NTSC and PAL signals supported.

Crystal clear Audio
Over 500 channels of stereo and multichannel digital audio distributed around AVDS network without compromise.
It’s easy to see why a distributed network topology is superior to a point-to-point star topology. AVDS offers less cable, less weight, less mess.

Gigabit Ethernet
AVDS backbone has Gigabit Ethernet available to any other aircraft system, office, phone, AVOD, etc.
Dual Fiber Optic Ring provides fault tolerant architecture. Signal paths continuously monitored and rerouted if fault detected.
Light-weight Fiber reduces aircraft wiring and can be run over 1000 meters between AVDS nodes. Fiber backbone is not susceptible to EMI noise induction or ground loops.
Works with any CMS—simple control of AVDS network via serial or Ethernet ports. Public Interface Document.
Connect a wireless access point and control all the AV functions on any smart phone or tablet.

8-Slot AVDS™ Node: 20 years. 2,000 aircraft. Zero obsoleted parts.
​
The AVDS™ modular fiber-optic backbone is designed to enable clients
to create or upgrade IFE/CMS equipment quickly and easily.
​
The core architecture allows engineers to build an essentially
custom part from a growing library of more than 20 input/output cards
that can be assembled in an AVDS node.
