The VCX-IP Network Solution is the market-leading network solution for Air Navigation Service Providers who operate multiple communication and data networks. Specifically designed for Air Traffic Management the network complies with the international standard for Voice over IP in Air Traffic Management (EUROCAE ED-137).
Highest availability is achieved by the flexible VCX-IP multi-level redundancy concept that can be tailored to your safety needs. The gateways come in a fully redundant hardware configuration, with duplicated processing units as well as power supplies. Radio services can be operated on stacked VCX-IP gateways in main/standby mode. This integration into a single solution allows for networkwide contingency scenarios.
Time-synchronised voice in CLIMAX and radio coverage operations is fundamental to operational Air/ Ground communication. Continuous network delay measurements for every channel leg enable VCX to ensure echo free voice communication.
The VCX network solution offers a range of legacy protocols and interfaces, especially for low-speed data services that are still used in Air Traffic Management. VCX provides interoperability of those legacy interfaces with IP equipment; combined with advanced call aggregation and voice compression, customers realised 47% cost reduction within the first two years.
