PlaneTRack RDMneo is a fully redundant 19-inch 2U ADS-B ground station designed for receiver sites requiring high availability or dual-antenna coverage. It integrates two independent 1090 MHz ADS-B receiver channels, redundant power supplies, processing and decoding capabilities, providing a reliable platform for aircraft surveillance and downstream system integration.
Supplied as a complete ready-to-install system, PlaneTRack RDMneo includes two rugged ADS-B antennas, two GPS antennas and four antenna line surge protectors. Its dual independent receiver architecture also enables the use of two antennas where site conditions or partially obstructed views require additional coverage.
