SANDEL SN4500 4/5-ATI High-Definition Primary Navigation Display

Offering modular convenience and flexibility, Sandel’s SN4500 High-Definition Primary Navigation Display is the new standard in NAV displays. Incorporating patented LED backlight technology, the SN4500 is the ideal replacement for aging 4-in. and 5-in. electromechanical HSIs, to give your cockpit unmatched resolution, unbelievable color and a state-of-the-art technology update.

Featuring an ultra-wide viewing angle (180 degrees in both the horizontal and vertical axes), the SN4500 also boasts an MTBF in excess of 10,000 hours. And with Sandel’s patented display engine generating a resolution of 200 pixels per inch — unmatched in the industry for brightness clarity, readability and color fidelity — you’ll find the SN4500 transforms your panel as it gives you a better view of the airspace around you.

Drawing from our experience with thousands of compact integrated displays in service, we designed the SN4500 to do what nothing else can: Replace your electromechanical HSI with a modular electronic display.

This allows you to achieve maximum performance at minimum disruption to your aircraft. And by saving on both acquisition and installation costs, the SN4500 is a cost-effective way to enhance both the operational and the residual value of your aircraft. Reliable, affordable and backed by Sandel’s award-winning product support.

The SN4500 improves situational awareness by presenting Compass, Map, Flight Plan and safety systems data in a bright, high-resolution format. FAA-certified as a primary navigation display, the SN4500 even incorporates overlaid weather, along with traffic information from TCAS, TCAD and TAS receivers, to maximize situational awareness.

It also incorporates our revolutionary Smart I/O, which automatically accepts input from analog and digital aircraft systems, streamlining installation and reducing costs.
