ARINC 664, Part 5 provides the design and implementation guidelines for networks installed in aircraft. Such networks may be used to enable network devices to communicate among themselves and with networks outside of the aircraft. This specification defines a set of domains within the aircraft. These domains are defined in terms of the services they provide, the security they provide to the functions within their boundaries, and the connections required between a domain and other domains and networks external to the aircraft. This specification provides general design and implementation guidelines that, when they are implemented by aircraft devices and configured by the system integrator, the devices provide the required connectivity, quality of service, safety and security.

The purpose of this document is to define a deterministic network: Avionics Full Duplex Switched Ethernet (AFDX). AFDX is a trademark of Airbus and is used with permission. This document also highlights the additional performance requirements of avionics systems within the context of AFDX.

This standard provides general and specific guidance for the development of a Portable Data Loader (PDL) for carry-on application and an Airborne Data Loader (ADL) for on-board the airplane. It specifies use of a 3.5 inch floppy disk to upload and download of data and operational programs using an ARINC 429 data bus connected to avionics computers.

The purpose of this document is to facilitate an understanding of aircraft information security and to develop aircraft information security operational concepts. This common understanding is important since a number of subcommittees and working groups within the aeronautical industry are considering aircraft information security. This document also provides an aircraft information security process framework relating to airline operational needs that, when implemented by an airline and its suppliers, will enable the safe and secure dispatch of the aircraft in a timely manner. This framework facilitates development of cost-effective aircraft information security and provides a common language for understanding security needs.

This specification describes the features and functionality desired of a communications link using Internet Protocols (IP) to provide services between a parked aircraft and the ground IP network infrastructure. This wireless communication link, commonly referred to as Gatelink, provides a connection between the airport and the on-board aircraft network. Gatelink will enable airlines to communicate in a secure manner with the aircraft network and appliances.

This standard defines the air transport industry's standards for the transfer of digital data between avionics system elements. Part 2 provides the formats of data words with discrete bit encoding.

ARINC 429 is the most widely used data transfer method used in aviation. This document provides the standard formats for data parameters and status words transferred between avionic systems. It specifies the physical data bus, electrical characteristics, and data formats. Supplement is 19 is a routine update that defines new ARINC 429 data words, new labels, new equipment IDs, and new System Address Labels (SAL).

This standard describes the 724B version of the airborne components of ACARS, and is intended for use in conjunction with VHF radio equipment existing on the plane. This ACARS enhancement improves the ability of the system to provide air-to-ground and ground-to-air data communications.
