uAvionix pingStation 3 Networkable Surface ADS-B Weather Receiver Overview:

uAvionix pingStation3 is a dual band (978MHz and 1090MHz), networkable Automatic Dependent Surveillance – Broadcast (ADS-B) receiver with a Power-Over-Ethernet (POE) interface enclosed in an IP67 rated protective enclosure. PingStation3 provides ground, surface, or low-altitude ADS-B surveillance and is capable as a multilateration sensor for Mode S. pingStation3 is robust enough to be permanently mounted outdoors in harsh environmental conditions, and small enough to be used as a mobile asset for roaming operations.  Installation is simple with included pole-mount bracket, and a single POE cable which provides both power and data communications. An integrated GPS provides precision timestamping for messaging.

Dual-band ADS-B Reception
pingStation 3 receives both ADS-B frequencies (978MHz UAT and 1090MHz) simultaneously with a single installation when most competitors are single-frequency. Don’t miss half the picture! pingStation 3 allows you to track ADS-B-equipped aircraft as far as 200+ miles away.

Enterprise Data Formats
pingStation 3 now supports ASTERIX CAT 021 message formats, for global compatibility with air traffic management standards. Additional formats support integration with any display system or data logger.

Weather Resistant and Easy to Deploy
Say goodbye to difficult coax cable runs that reduce your reception performance. The all-in-one pingStation 3 includes the receiver, GPS, and antenna in an IP67 weatherproof enclosure, with power and data provided by a single Power-Over-Ethernet (POE) network cable connected right to your LAN. The quick pole-mount clamp design makes installation a snap.

Your Data, Your Way
pingStation 3 provides data in several formats easily integrated into any display or analytical application, including UAS Ground Control Stations, Unmanned Traffic Management (UTM) Solutions, and Flight Information Displays.

Multiple pingStation3 may be networked together to provide a wide area low-altitude surveillance volume. Data messages options are available, including ASTERIX CAT021, JSON, and Compressed VRS format as described within the pingStation3 ICD.
