An amazing, small, rugged, In-Line 1553/ARINC Ethernet Converter: NLINE-EMA4(tm). We’ve embedded our industry-leading AltaCore-1553/ARINC protocol engine technology directly into a rugged, MIL-810G/461F cable assembly. Programming of the device is just like any other Alta product with all the advanced BC, RT and BM & ARINC Controls, and simplified programming using the AltaAPI software development kit – you can even run your existing application without re-compile, just as with ENET products. Real-Time 1553/ARINC-Ethernet conversion (<20 uSec) and even auto 1553/ARINC BM/RX data to Ethernet without any programming (auto 1553/ARINC to UDP conversion).

Almost every avionics or communication system implements an Ethernet topology, but most 1553/ARINC Ethernet converter products are processor/Linux based with insecure IP network stacks that greatly slow down Ethernet communications. ENET and NLINE designs are FPGA hardware-based UDP thin servers that provide real-time Ethernet/1553/ARINC bridging/conversion, reducing threats of viruses or internal hacking. These products provide all the advanced controls of traditional 1553/ARINC interfaces and can simultaneously auto-bridge time-stamped 1553 UDP packets without any programming. There is a fast auto-boot feature where 1553 and MIL-1760 RX controls can be managed through standard socket communications as implemented in almost every OS, even DO-178 compliant systems.

On the computer side, are rugged, over-molded RJ-45 Ethernet and USB plug power connectors. On the 1553/ARINC side, is a rugged 38999 connector.  An optional cable can break out the signals to a standard 1553 jack connector (BJ77 style) and a DB26 cable connector. See Part Numbers tab for optional cable part number. See below for example cabling. The product is designed to accommodate various connectors for your custom requirements – contact Alta for details.
