Part 5 addresses several aspects of installation and is divided into five sections: Introduction, Parts Selection, Electrical Wire Design Guidelines, Wire Installation Guidelines, and Documentation Guidelines. Guidelines regarding design, safety, and other subjects relevant to acceptance of the end item are addressed. Notes explaining the reason for setting a guideline or suggesting methods for performing the task are provided in commentary. The content of the document is designed to make it usable for reference by industry, particularly manufacturers of seats and equipment.

ARINC 800 is the first industry standard intended for characterization of aviation-grade high-speed (Gbps) Ethernet links. The test methods are based on realistic representation of cabin networks. The notional cabling architecture is based on IFE seat distribution using multiple intermediate disconnects. Sequential testing is supported by building up number of connectors in the link. Test guidelines for mixed intermediate cable lengths are provided.

ARINC 600 is a mechanical packaging standard that is used with the ARINC 700-series of digital avionics equipment. It provides mechanical, electrical, and environmental interfaces between LRUs and the racks or cabinets in which they are installed. Provides connector shell definition, connector insert layout and mounting dimensions.

This documents defines the Installation Characteristics of an airborne radio transceiver capable of broadband wireless communication with an Airport Surface Network. The Aeronautical Mobile Airport Communications System (AeroMACS) Radio Unit (ARU) will operate in the aeronautical protected frequency of 5091 MHz to 5150 MHz, utilizing the IEEE 802.16e WiMAX protocol. It is intended to offload some of the congested narrowband VHF airport traffic used for ATS and AOC communications. ARU and Antenna Form, Fit, Function and Interfaces are described.

This document defines an open encoding format for airport databases which are loaded in airborne systems. This format, when designed and implemented, will enable a quick, economic, and efficient use of AMDB. However, since industry does not require applications to be standardized, data interpretation is not addressed in this document.

This document is the first of a multi-part specification that will provide a catalog of cabin connector and cables that may be used in ARINC Standard cabin systems, including In-Flight Entertainment. Part 1 describes connector and cable requirements and evaluation criteria for the interface components used in the integration of cabin systems. Future releases will define connectors, contacts, and termination methods in Part 2. Cables will be specified in Part 3.

This Specification defines general architectural philosophy and aircraft infrastructure for the proper use and interface of various cabin related IFE equipment. Compliance with ARINC Specification 808 allows each respective system to operate in concert when integrated with other relevant cabin equipment. ARINC Specification 808 defines standards for the aircraft 3rd Generation Cabin Network (3GCN), IFE Cabin Distribution System (CDS), wiring, connectors, power, identification codes, space envelopes, and mounting principles. Although some of these standards also apply to 3GCN wireless IFE systems, the overall 3GCN wireless IFE network specification is covered in ARINC Specification 820. The equipment itself is not a subject of this specification because it may be unique to the system manufacturer or marketplace-driven. Design guidelines are included for informational purposes as these guidelines impact the interfaces and installation of cabin equipment aboard the aircraft.

This document defines both wired and wireless NSS components that enable the creation of airborne networks that are scalable, interchangeable, upgradeable, and remotely manageable with minimum cost. Aircraft equipment configurations and aircraft wiring recommendations are also described to allow aircraft network growth through the simple addition or replacement of NSS components. Hardware characteristics of standardized components are described without specifying equipment capacity or the operational functions of those components.
