Blue Sky Network D1000A Flight Tracking Transceiver

The Blue Sky Network D1000A Iridium Satellite Flight Tracking and two-way messaging transceiver provides unprecedented satellite communications to and from aircraft globally.

The D1000A offers GPS and event reporting, an integrated panic button and email.

It can connect to the ACH1000 control head, adding a voice connection, short code messaging and a display to the installation. The D1000A is designed for fixed or portable installation.

Take control of your fleet management

 

Whether you are managing fixed or rotor wing aircraft in San Diego or Sumatra, Blue Sky Network’s D1000A Iridium satellite communication kit provides visibility of your aircraft fleet’s movement. With the unique SkyRouter Web portal, you will always know if a flight is delayed, where it is going, and if it is somewhere it should not be.

 

Safety first

 

The D1000A improves safety and efficiency in large fleet operations. Blue Sky Network equipment has been used in the field for emergency situations such as hard landings, landings on water, and even an emergency landing at the South Pole. In these circumstances the crew can push a mayday button that quickly sends a message to the SkyRouter portal and key email addresses and mobile phones. This feature has saved lives.

 

More efficient fleet management

 

Our D1000A transceiver includes advanced flight planning tools and event notifications as well as Web-based and remote equipment configuration that will quickly help you realize improvements to your bottom line.

 

How it works

 

The D1000A uses Iridium Short Burst Data (SBD) to simply and efficiently send and receive short messages. In addition, the device supports circuit connections for voice and modem connectivity. Messages are sent from the D1000A and received by the nearest Iridium satellite. From there, the Iridium satellite constellation uses the shortest path to transfer the message to the Iridium gateway where it is immediately sent to the SkyRouter web portaland displayed on your computer screen. It takes less than a minute for the message to travel from a device to SkyRouter, allowing for near real-time communications.
