Teledyne Controls, a subsidiary of Teledyne Technologies and a leading provider of innovative avionics and aircraft data management solutions, is pleased to announce that its new onboard enhanced Airborne Data Loader (eADL XS) has received certification for use on the Boeing 737NG aircraft series. Certification for other aircraft platforms is in progress.

Teledyne’s eADL XS represents a new generation of dataloading technology and is the first onboard data loader to meet the stringent ARINC 645-1 requirements for OEM secure dataloading. With advanced features, such as built-in cellular and Wi-Fi connectivity, comprehensive validation of digital signature, and secure boot, the eADL XS ensures the integrity of software parts and protects against unauthorized access at every stage.

“We are thrilled to achieve this certification for the Boeing 737NG,” said Mehrdad Radmehr, President of Teledyne Controls. “As aircraft continue to integrate powerful new systems and networks into their design, the software distribution process becomes more complex, opening more opportunities for cybersecurity attacks. This certification milestone demonstrates our commitment to providing cutting‑edge solutions to enhance the safety and efficiency of our customers’ operations.”

Teledyne’s eADL XS offers several key benefits:

- Advanced Security: Fully compliant with ARINC 645-1 security standards, ensuring data integrity and robust protection against cyber threats.

- Wireless Connectivity: Built-in cellular and Wi-Fi connectivity, for fully autonomous software part distribution with or without Teledyne’s GroundLink Wireless Quick Access Recorder.

- Ease of Integration: Designed as a plug-and-play replacement for existing data loaders, simplifying the upgrade process for operators.

- Enhanced Fleet Management: Integrates with Teledyne’s ground distribution systems to automate software configuration control and load reporting.

Increased Onboard Storage: Expanded internal mass storage for onboard retention of software parts, facilitating reloading at any location and reducing risks of delays and cancellations.
