Flight Display Systems Offers Fly HD

Alpharetta, Ga. - Flight Display Systems introduces Fly HD, a complete high-definition system that provides full 1,080p video quality. Flight Display Systems engineered the components to use HD-SDI signals on the common coaxial cable that is already installed on many aircraft. This reduces the number of converters required and limits the amount of rewiring necessary

The Fly HD components fall into three categories: high-definition widescreen monitors, HD-SDI backbone switches and converters, and high-definition source equipment.

“We’ve been working towards creating an end-to-end High-Definition system like this for years,” says David Gray, president of Flight Display Systems. “Now we have cracked the code to perfect aircraft HD video that delivers true VIP experience for in-flight entertainment and other video.”

The Fly HD monitors from Flight Display Systems are available for a variety of functions, sized from seven to 55 inches in widescreen format. The smaller seven- and 10-inch monitors can be attached to arm mounts for each passenger access at the seat. Larger aircraft cabin displays are typically used on bulkheads and in custom-built consoles.

The key to the system is HD-SDI, which can transmit a full uncompressed 1,080p high-definition signal via one coaxial cable. HD-SDI cabling is a thin coaxial cable with BNC connectors. Flight Display Systems provides several HD-SDI crossover switches, allowing multiple sources to be transmitted to multiple monitors.

Flight Display Systems manufactures high-definition source equipment such as a Blu-ray player, a 1,080p cockpit camera and the Jet JukeBox. Its special mission and law enforcement customers use the high-definition digital video recorder for mission tracking and playback.
