regularity of flight communications, in particular for Air Traffic Services (ATS)
or Aeronautical Operational Control (AOC) during the flight time.
The software used to control the unit operation complies with
RTCA specification DO-178B level E software.
Non-Safety Interfaces
The following interfaces in the Aero-HSD+ system are strictly for non-safety
usage:
•Cockpit voice (future use)
•ACARS/CMU
•CPDF (future use)
•MCDU/FMS (future use)
TT98-113625-D2-1

General Description
Services
Housed in one system, the Aero-HSD+ combines the global voice, fax and PC
modem data capabilities of the Inmarsat® Aero-H+ service with the new Inmarsat
Swift64 aeronautical High Speed Data service.
•The Aero-H+ part provides three channels for global voice, fax, PC modem
data and cockpit communication.
•The Swift64 part provides a fourth channel, dedicated to high-speed data
requirements. The Swift64 channel may operate either using the Integrated
Services Digital Network (ISDN @ 64 kbit/s) or the IP-based Mobile Packet
Data Service (MPDS up to 64 kbit/s).
The Swift64 channel may also be used for speech or for 3.1 kHz audio e.g. for
fax.
PBX
The built-in PBX Unit connects up to four 4-wire handsets and two direct 2-wire
POTS interfaces for faxes, PC modems, auxiliary phones, headset interface boxes
etc.
Configuration Module
The Configuration Module (CM) contains all system and user settings for easy
replacement of the Satellite Data Unit (SDU). Access to these settings are
provided with the HSD+ Configuration Program (HSD+CP). For further
information on the HSD+CP, see HSD+ Configuration Program on page 6-1.
Different layers of write protection protect the CM contents; this includes
hardware protection of installation settings and optional pin code protection of
user data.
The Configuration Module is designed as a “plug-in” module for the SDU,
making it easier to replace the SDU while retaining all system and user settings.
Antenna Systems
The Aero-HSD+ may be acquired with an electronically steered High Gain
Antenna, HGA-7000, which is designed for fuselage mounting. The Aero-HSD+
system has built-in antenna control (ACU/BSU) for the HGA-7000 antenna.
Alternatively, an ARINC 741 antenna, such as the AMT-50 antenna for tail
mounting, may be used.

Mounting Considerations
5.2Mounting Considerations
5.2.1Overview
For optimum system performance, some guidelines on where to install or mount
the different components of the Aero-HSD+ System must be followed. Mounting
and placement details are included in this section.
For information on requirements to cables, see the individual sections in
Electrical Installation and Wiring on page 5-7 or Electrical Installation and
Wiring, HSU on page 5-63.For information on recommended cable types and lengths, see Recommended
Cables on page 5-81.
Note:When mounting the units, make sure that there is enough space to
provide a sufficient bend radius for the cables. See the cable data sheet
for minimum bend radius.
5.2.2SDU
Forced cooling is not recommended for the SDU.
•Place the SDU in a temperature controlled area (e.g. avionics bay).
•Place the SDU where the cooling air holes are not blocked. Note that cooling
air holes in the SDU are placed outside the recommended area for
ARINC 404A 3/8 ATR short units.
•Mount the SDU in an ARINC 404A 3/8 ATR short standard tray.
5.2.3HSU
Forced cooling is not recommended for the HSU.
•Place the HSU in a temperature controlled area (e.g. avionics bay).
•Place the HSU where the cooling air holes are not blocked. Note that cooling
air holes in the HSU are placed outside the recommended area for
ARINC 404A 1/4 ATR short units.
•Mount the HSU in an ARINC 404A 1/4 ATR short standard tray.

Page 83
5.2.4Rx Power Splitter
If the Rx Power Splitter is to be mounted on a flat surface, mount it on a 3 mm
mounting plate to provide enough space for mounting of the connectors.
Figure 5-2: Mounting the Rx Power Splitter
5.2.5HPA
5555
Mounting Considerations
The HPA can be installed in a non-temperature controlled area.
The HPA is designed with built-in forced cooling (fans).
Internal temperature monitoring prevents damage caused by overheating.
Important!Respect the minimum clearance of 25 mm from top and bottom.
•Mount the HPA vertically on a panel to ensure maximum cooling. Mount the
HPA in an ARINC 404A 3/8 ATR short tray with oval cut-out as shown in
Figure 3-12: Outline Drawing: Tray for SDU and HPA.
•Install the HPA as close to the DLNA as possible.
The cable between the HPA and the DLNA must be a special low-loss coax
cable. See Wiring Antenna Systems on page 5-14 and the wiring drawings
Figure 5-5: Wiring HGA-7000 Antenna and TT-5012A DLNA and Figure
5-6: Wiring AMT-50 Subsystem.
5.2.6DLNA
The DLNA can be installed in a non-temperature controlled area. The DLNA can
be mounted in an upright position.
•Install the DLNA as close to the antenna as possible.
•Place the DLNA with sufficient contact to the surface, respecting the max.
resistance of 3 mΩ. The DLNA can be mounted on a shelf or directly on the
fuselage.
Important!If the DLNA is mounted directly on fuselage, mount with
Cadmium plated washers between the DLNA and fuselage.
The coax cable between the DLNA and the antenna must be a low-loss coax cable.
See Wiring Antenna Systems on page 5-14 for requirements to the cable.
TT98-113625-DChapter 5: Installation5-5
Page 84
Mounting Considerations
5.2.7Antenna
General Mounting Considerations
Refer to the antenna manual for details on mounting the antenna. Make sure all
requirements in the antenna mounting instructions are met.
Place the antenna with unobstructed view to the satellite.
WARNING! Respect a safety distance of minimum 6.6 feet (2 metres) of the
antenna when the system is transmitting, unless the antenna manual
or the specific system configuration presents different
requirements.
Note:The antenna installation must be in accordance with the aircraft
manufacturers requirements and/or FAA AC 43.13 - 1B/2A and
approved by the appropriate Civil Aviation Authorities.
Satcom filter
If the GPS antenna for the existing GPS receiver on board the aircraft does not
provide sufficient filtering it may be necessary to install a Satcom filter for the
GPS antenna.
Cables to the antennas
Be aware that the shorter the cable is, the better the system performance is.
Do not bend the cables to a radius smaller than the minimum bend radius stated
for the cables.
For further information on cables, see Wiring Antenna Systems on page 5-14,
Wiring Antenna Systems With HSU Installed on page 5-65 and
Recommended Cables on page 5-81

5.3.2Wiring Power Supply
Important!Do not use the same 20 A circuit breaker for both the SDU and the
HPA. Use separate circuit breakers as described in this section, and
with the current rating stated here.
Wiring of Satellite Data Unit
The Aircraft Power Bus provides the electric power required to operate the SDU,
and a chassis connection to the aircraft chassis and the installation tray. The
+28 V DC Power wire must include a circuit breaker capable of carrying the
required current continuously under the required environmental conditions.
The following drawing shows the wiring of the SDU power supply.
Requirements to the wiring are stated in the notes on the drawing and in the
section Cable Requirements, SDU Power Supply on page 5-10.

It is essential to keep the line impedance below the specified limits. See Cable
Requirements, SDU Power Supply on page 5-10.
Reverse polarity protection is only guaranteed if the suggested circuit breaker is
used.
Required current capability for the Circuit Breaker: 48 W @ 17.3 V DC which
equals 2.8 A DC at the required environmental conditions.
A suitable circuit breaker would be Klixon 2TC series with 4 A current rating.
Important!Do not use the HPA 20 A circuit breaker for both the HPA and the
SDU.
Chassis Ground / Handset Power Return (TP3)
Chassis connection, connected to installation
tray and Aircraft chassis.
Also used for handset power return.
The Chassis connection makes sure that the HPA cabinet and the installation tray
has the same potential, and that there is a connection from the wiring shields to the
cabinet for EMC purposes.
Connect the wire directly to the installation tray, and to aircraft chassis.
TP3 also connects to the Handset Power Return.
Remote On/Off (nON) input (TP5)
The nON input is used to turn the SDU and the power supply to the handsets on
and off. Connection of this input to ground turns on the SDU and all other units in
the SATCOM system (Handsets, DLNA, HPA and HGA-7000 Antenna).
However, ARINC 741 Antennas and DLNAs are not turned off when the SDU is
turned off.
The electrical specifications are defined like the discrete WOW input type. Please
refer to Discrete type and description: on page 5-57.
