An interface device configured to interface with one or more aircraft avionics data systems and an antenna. The interface device includes a radio and at least one computing device that are housed inside an enclosure. The radio is connected to the antenna. The radio is configured to transmit outgoing messages and to receive incoming messages via the antenna. The at least one computing device is configured to send the outgoing messages to the radio for transmission by the radio via the antenna and to receive the incoming messages from the radio. The radio may be a very high frequency ('VHF') transceiver.

Aviation datalink communications management unit

A user interface for an avionics interface device. The interface includes a display, selectable keys, and three annunciations. The keys include alphanumeric, functional, and line select keys. The functional keys are positioned above the display. The alphanumeric keys are positioned below the display. First and second portions of the line select keys are positioned along left and right side portions, respectively, of the display. All of the functional keys are separate and spaced apart from all of the alphanumeric keys. Pressing a line select key selects a line of the display that is positioned next to and aligned with the line select key. The annunciations identify a state of the avionics interface device. First and second annunciations indicate the device is configured to communicate with a Controller-Pilot Data Link Communications system and an Aircraft Communications Addressing and Reporting System, respectively. A third annunciation indicates the device has encountered a failure.

Aircraft avionics data input panel

A push-button switch assembly adapted for use on a printed circuit board having a contact switch attached thereto. The switch assembly comprises a base attachable to the printed circuit board, the base having an interior cavity sized and shaped to receive the contact switch therein; an actuator disposed within the interior cavity of the base and positioned in contact with the contact switch; and a cap having an interior cavity therein, wherein a portion of the interior cavity of the cap is sized to slidably receive the base therein, and wherein the cap is in contact with the actuator.
