This specification describes the general connectors, contacts, and backshells in their shape and characteristic for cabin systems for commercial aircrafts. ARINC 600, ARINC 404, and ARINC 801 connector specifications are published as independent standards.

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.

This document is based upon the SAE ARP5602 document, A Guideline for Aerospace Platform Fiber Optic Training and Awareness Education. ARINC Report 807: Fiber Optic Training Requirements is a subset of the SAE ARP5602 document designed to meet the requirements of the commercial air transport industry. Certification to the SAE ARP5602 document fulfills the requirements of ARINC Report 807. This document defines recommended general practices for training requirements of aerospace fiber optic systems. It is the intention of this document to outline proven training practices and general standards of workmanship for technicians engaged in aerospace fiber optic manufacturing, installation, maintenance, and repair for the air transport industry. It is also recommended that management and purchasing personnel receive fundamental training to familiarize themselves with the requirements of aerospace fiber optics.

This specification describes the general cable and wire characteristics recommended for use in cabin systems for commercial aircraft.

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.

The purpose of this standard is to provide a method for packaging aircraft software parts for distribution using contemporary media or by electronic distribution. This project intends to standardize and provide guidance for the storage of floppy based software, currently packaged in media set parts. This standard format can be then stored or distributed on a single physical media member (CD-ROM), or by electronic crate. The obsolescence of floppy disks drive an urgent need for this guidance.

ARINC Specification 628, Cabin Equipment Interfaces (CEI) Part 6 Fiber Optic Cable Assembly General Specification, defines the minimum acceptable provisions for connectorized fiber optic cable assemblies used in permanently installed airframe wire bundles that are part of ARINC 628 supported systems. The intent is for the cable assembly supplier to use this specification as a guideline to provide the prospective IFE contractor with cable assemblies that have adequate quality and performance for the intended application. These assemblies are suitable for cabin systems applications only. Applicable guidelines not found in this specification may be found in Section 9 of ARINC Specification 628 Part 4A.

This document is based upon the SAE ARP5602 document, A Guideline for Aerospace Platform Fiber Optic Training and Awareness Education. ARINC Report 807, addressing fiber optic training requirements, is a scaled back version of the SAE ARP5602 document designed to meet the requirements of the commercial air transport industry. Certification to the SAE ARP5602 document fulfills the requirements of ARINC Report 807. This document defines recommended general practices for training requirements of aerospace fiber optic systems.

It is also recommended that management and purchasing personnel receive fundamental training to familiarize themselves with the requirements of aerospace fiber optics.

This standard preserves all of the technical concepts of ARINC 610. ARINC 610A encompasses the lessons learned since ARINC 610 was issued, provides additional information defining each simulator function and the responses required by each type, and creates guidance information relevant to Integrated Modular Avionics (IMA).

This standard sets forth general philosophy and design guidance for using aircraft avionics equipment in simulators. Its goal is to improve simulator training by providing a better understanding among avionics designers, simulator designers, airframe manufacturers and airline simulator users in the use of aircraft avionic equipment in flight simulators. Full flight simulator, cockpit procedure trainer, cockpit system simulator or fixed base simulator, part task trainer (e.g., flight management system trainer), and maintenance training simulator guidance is included.

The Synchro System Manual provides valuable information to designers and maintainers of avionics equipment that employ synchro devices. Synchro theory, synchro applications and signal definitions are included in this standard. Originally published in 1950, it is considered to be the classic guide for synchro devices.

ARINC Specification 844, prepared in two parts, defines the requirements of a Target Data Loader (TDL) from the target hardware point of view. Both parts are based on two data loading standards: Part 1 clarifies ARINC Report 615-3: Airborne Computer High Speed Data Loader, Part 2 clarifies ARINC Report 615-4: Airborne Computer High Speed Data Loader. ARINC Report 615 was originally written from the data loader point of view. It is important that a target designer have a general understanding of the operation of a data loader in its modern implementation. Equally important is the need for data loader manufacturers to understand the standardized implementation requirements and supported subset of ARINC 615 features that are defined in ARINC 844, Parts 1 and 2. Therefore, ARINC Specification 844 is expected to provide value to both data loader and target implementers.

This document defines information required to load data into aircraft components while not installed aboard an aircraft. The objective is to address all levels of data loading processes as related to component maintenance and repair within a shop environment.

This document provides background and detailed technical information on existing methods to secure loadable software parts.

ARINC Specification 802 defines standard fiber optic cable meeting the operational and environmental requirements for the air transport industry. The purpose of this document is to avoid the proliferation of different designs of cables serving the same functions on different airplane models. ARINC Specification 802 comprises three sections. Section 1 provides a general description of the objectives, scope, the types of cable, and the applicable environmental categories. Section 2 addresses the desired physical properties of the fiber optic cables. Section 3 defines the qualification tests that may be used to ensure the cables meet the characteristics provided by this document. A glossary is provided in Appendix A.
