The ICG Universal Interface Unit (UIU) interfaces include: multiple serial ports, fax dial-up data interface, Ethernet, WiFiand USB. The ICG UIU permits users to fax and email via the Iridium network.
The ICG UIU provides internal router functions and a HTTP server to permit up to eight PCs access, offering a truly wireless system for the aircraft cabin. Multiple serial interfaces with port management, permit connections of several RS-232 devices without the risk of port contention, collisions or data corruption. Services such as Airshow, EFBs and cabin data ports can be simultaneously connected.
With the WiFi option installed, PCs with WiFi capabilities will automatically be assigned DHCP addresses and have immediate access to the system. The UIU is the ideal cabin data solution for the small to intermediate size aircraft.
