FCC ill: CDG-ARTUMAGNASTAREXHIBITCC-2000 DIGITAL AIRBORNE TELEPHONE SYSTEMConference Calls Conferences can be set up between multiple parties on-board and on the ground,over any of the available links (GenStar, SATCOM, HF).Call Transfer Incoming and outgoing calls can be transferred to other handsets on-board theaircraft.In-Plane Calls Seat-to-seat (cabin-to-cockpit) calling is a standard feature.Speed Dialing With the MagnaStar system. callers can store and quickly call frequently callednumbers as well as access services offered by GTE Airfone (hotel, car rental,weather, etc.).Multiple Phones The basic C-2000 system allows installation of up to nine independent (non-party-line) telephone handsets. A system configuration allowing up to fifty handsets iscurrently being developed.Fax I Data Modem The MagnaStar system provides RJ.II jacks for connection of caller's fax orpersonal computer modem equipment. The RJ.II jacks are integral to the handset;they may be remoted so that the fax / modem cable does not interfere with use ofthe handset. The system is designed to support high quality (low error rate) voiceband data transmissions at 2400 bps; 4800 bps, and 9600 bps. Higher ratecapabilities are in development by Raytheon and GTE Airfone engineering.TOO Customer supplied TOO equipment is supported by the MagnaStar system, via thehandset itself or the RJ-II jack.Call Charging Service charges for calls made with the MagnaStar system are billed directly tothe equipment owner's account (1 + calls) or to credit card accounts (0 + calls).Direct charged (1 +) calls can be blocked, for example during charter use of theaircraft.Privacy The MagnaStar system uses an advanced modulation and signaling scheme whichoffers inherent communications privacy. Your conversation is protected fromcasual listening by others having 'scanners' or by even similarly equipped aircraft.(This privacy is only limited by the normal private-line telephone service throughthe PSTN. Additional security can be provided with optional features.)1-2 RevB
FCC ill: CDG-ARTUMAGNASTAR EXHIBITCC-2000 DIGITAL AIRBORNE TELEPHONE SYSTEM1.2 Equipment DescriptionThe MagnaStar C-2<XX> system is designed with the business aircraft in mind. With two air-ground voice channel operations as a standard feature, the C-2<XX> consists of an Airborne RadioTelecommunications Unit (ARTU), an antenna, a duplexer, a mounting tray for the ARTU, one or moreCabin Data Bus Repeaters (COBRs), and one to nine telephone handsets. Optional equipment includes oneto three Analog Interface Units (AlU), a Call Alerter Switch (CAS), Cell Phone Interface (CPI), CockpitHeadset Interface Panel (CHIP), and other specialized devices.A&JJ1: The ARTU provides the private automatic base exchange (P ABX) features, controls the C-2000system. and contains the receiver-transmitter functions for radio transmission. This digital radio has beenimplemented using state-of-the-art multiple digitaJ signal processor techniques to provide accuratewaveform control and noise-free, reliable communications in the noisy, fading. high-Doppler signalenvironment seen in jet aircraft-to-ground communications. Reliability is further enhanced by theautomated assembly and test techniques used to manufacture the high density surface-mount-device circuitcards. Should any problem occur, built-in-test identifies the source of the problem for quick circuit cardreplacement and return of the unit to service.Antenna / D~lexer: The antenna is a low drag, quarter wavelength design swtable for use on highperforDJance jet aircraft. The duplexer is a passive signal filter-combiner that combines the receive andtransmit lines to the common antenna.~: The data and control interface to the ARTU is by means of a high speed time division multiplexeddigital bus operating as a local area network (LAN). User interface devices such as handsets, fax machines,modems, etc. connect to the system via this LAN. There are two different nx>dels of the CDBR. TheCDBR-l (~ell) provides for physical connection of up to two digital handsets (with their RJ-ll jacksfor the fax I modem connections) to the LAN bus. The CDBR-2 (model 2) provides two analog interfaceconnections, each of which can support either a four wire analog handset or two wire data for directconnection of a fax machine or modem Additionally, the CDBR-2 provides a separate interface forconnection of a digital handset.Di2ital Handset: The telephone handsets have been selected for performance and reliability. The handsetscontain noise-canceling microphones to overco~ the aircraft noise environment; audio is digitized at thehandset to further ensure clear communication. Special function keys and a liquid crystal display alloweasy use of all options available to the user. The digital handsets are offered with varied mountingprovisions to fit any installation requirement. Handsets are offered with a) a standard build-in style mountto hold the handset when not in use, with a ratcheting cord reel, b) that version with a bulkhead mountingadapter, c) the handset and cord reel without a mount, for custom mounting, and d) a "curly-cord" (likestandard office phones) with a plug for the ability to relocate the handset to various locations wired with thematching jack. Variations a - c also are available with the RJ-ll jack remoted from the handset, to belocated where it best fits in the interior design of the aircraft. All variations come in four colors: white,platinum, pepper dust, and black. Develop~nt is on-going for additional telephone handset options.AllJ.: The AIU can be used to connect an analog SA TCOM unit, a Cel1 Phone Interface (CPI), a HF radio,or a Public Address (P A) amplifier, and/or other communications devices to the MagnaStar system TheAIU bas been designed with electrical interfaces to optimize the connection to any analog-interfaceSA TCOM system selected by the custo~. Separate connections are provided to accotmt for variations inaudio-line impedance and level and in the hook switch and status interfaces between SATCOM equip~nt.HF radio connections can be made directly or through the aircraft audio control panel. The varyingrequirements for the SA TCOM and HF interfaces led to an AIU design that offers the flexibility to connecta wide variety of equip~nt and systems to the C-2000. AIUs interface to the ARTU over the LAN, likethe COORs.RevB1-3
FCC ID: CDG-ARTUMAGNASTAREXHIBITCC-2000 DIGITAL AIRBORNE TELEPHONE SYSTEM~: The CAS provides ten switches to control call alerting devices (supplied by the installer) such asbells, lights, cabin chime, etc. (Even in the relatively noise-quieted cabins of business jets, the ambientnoise can make it difficult to hear the electronic ringer of the standard handset. Increasing the volume ofthe handset speaker could be annoying should the handset be close to a user's ear when it rang. A separatealerter avoids this problem and allows for installation of the handsets in enclosed compartments.) Single ormultiple switches can be assigned to a handset and to multiple handsets; and the cadence of the "ring"pattern can be controlled, giving a great deal of flexibility to customize uplink call notification. One CASis used per aircraft; it connects to a digital handset port of any of the CDBRs in the system. The CAS mayalso be used to signal when Air-Ground, SA TCOM or HF services are available or when one or moreparticular handsets are in use.Miscellaneous: The MagnaStar system can interface to many other communications equipment. The"-802" modification to the ARTU provides a CEPT -EI interface to connect directly to SA TCOM systemsor to cabin management equipment. The flexibility is built in to the system to accommodate customer-unique requirements with minimum new development.1.3 Installation SummaryThe ARTU is installed in an ARINC style mounting tray using two type A hold downs. It isdesigned for installation in pressurized or non-pressurized locations. The mounting tray provides anair plenum and fan for cooling. The fan is quiet enough to allow cabin installation. The duplexercan be mounted in any convenient location between the ARTU and the antenna. The antenna comeswith a standard six hole mounting flange. As an option, a four hole flange is available for directreplacement of standard 450 MHz radio telephone antennas. The handsets are designed forinstallation in any convenient area of the cabin. Custom mounting provisions can be readilyprovided.Installation information and equipment outline drawings are available in the Interface ControlDocument (ICD) Appendix B.ReYB-4
