webFB WIRELESS EFB
Avionics Data Connectivity for Portable EFBs
World's First Wireless AID FAA Approved for Use in the Flight Deck
The ultra-compact webFB® easily fits in the palm of the hand, yet incorporates the capabilities of both an AID and a wireless server. The built-in AID safely gathers essential data from the aircraft's ARINC 429 and 717 databuses and conveys it to custom software or EFB apps hosted on the internal server. Using a wireless connection to portable EFB tablets, the webFB securely delivers this valuable information right to the fingertips of the flight crew.
Key Features
- Certified device with FAA Parts Manufacturer Approval (PMA)
- Small, lightweight, and low power
- 256-bit secure 802.11 b/g wireless
- Integrated secure web page
- Easy to install and operate
webFB is an Innovative Wireless EFB Solution
The webFB includes avionics interfaces for ARINC 717, ARINC 429, and RS-232 to connect with and gather needed flight data from essential aircraft equipment, such as ACARS, SATCOM, the flight data recorder (FDR), and other avionics. The diagram below shows the typical connection for the webFB:
Standard and Extended Range Models
Standard Range webFB
Wi-Fi range is intentionally limited to the flight deck area in order to:
- Attenuate signal to limit visibility within the cabin
- Wirelessly connect to EFBs
- Securely transfer data in real-time to EFBs
Extended Range webFB
Increases the effective Wi-Fi range in order to:
- Wirelessly connect to cabin Wi-Fi
- Concurrent internet connectivity for EFB and webFB
- Enable real-time data transfer off the aircraft
