IFD101 ADS-B Airborne Receiver The Ultimate Solution for Air Traffic Monitoring

The IFD101 is a professional airborne ADS-B receiver designed for aviation applications, providing real-time traffic awareness for aircraft in flight. It is optimized for cockpit installation and integration with avionics systems, enhancing situational awareness for pilots.

Key Features of the IFD101

1. Airborne ADS-B Reception

1. Dual-Band Support (978 MHz UAT & 1090 MHz ES) – Receives ADS-B signals from both general aviation (UAT) and commercial aircraft (1090ES).
2. High Sensitivity & Low Noise – Ensures reliable reception even at high altitudes.
3. Traffic & Weather Data – Displays nearby aircraft and FIS-B (Flight Information Service-Broadcast) weather.

• 2. Cockpit Integration

Compatible with Avionics Displays – Works with:

1. Garmin GDL 90 (for GA aircraft)
2. Aspen Avionics
3. ForeFlight/Stratus (via Bluetooth/Wi-Fi)
4. Supports TIS-B (Traffic Information Service-Broadcast) – Enhances traffic awareness.

3. Installation & Power

• Lightweight & Compact – Designed for permanent or portable cockpit mounting.
• 12V/28V DC Aircraft Power – Compatible with most aviation electrical systems.
• Antenna Options – Can use built-in or external ADS-B antennas.

4. Applications

• General Aviation (GA) Traffic Awareness – Helps avoid mid-air collisions.
• Commercial & Business Aviation – Enhances cockpit situational awareness.
• Unmanned Aerial Systems (UAS) – Used in ADS-B-equipped drones for detect-and-avoid (DAA).

Comparison with Other Airborne ADS-B Receivers

Typical Setup in Aircraft
