Flex1553 PCI-Express Four dual-redundant MIL-STD-1553  board

Multiple Protocols

MIL-STD-1553

1553 EBR

ARINC 429

CSDB

Serial ASYNC RS4-22/485

Discrete I/O

The Flex1553-PCIe is a PCI Express card supporting 1, 2 or 4 Dual Redundant MIL-STD-1553 buses, 1553 Enhanced Bit Rate, and more with precise timing and flexible programming.

Breakout box I/O connectors

The Flex1553 PCIe card interconnects with the connect panel. The connect panel is a 1U ruggedized rack-mountable panel that provides eight MIL-1553 Twinax BNC connectors. It also provides large DB connectors for easy user cabling of ASYNC, ARINC 429, Single or Differential Discrete I/O, Sync in/out and IRIG-B signals.
