Embraer has selected the Honeywell Ovation Select audio/video and cabin management system (AVCMS) for the mid-light Legacy 450 and midsize Legacy 500 executive jets.
The Ovation Select cabin connection suite provides high-definition audio/video and a fully digital cabin management solution with intuitive controls and state-of-the-art features.
“Embraer’s Executive Jets focus is on the best in passenger comfort and productivity. Honeywell’s proven experience and products serve our purpose very well,” said Maurício Almeida Filho, Embraer vice-president, programs – Executive Jets. “With Ovation Select technology, we will be able to deliver a better overall inflight experience.”
The AVCMS selection was based on Honeywell’s top-flight product, using the latest digital technology. Its robust and reliable architecture is simple, and easy to install and to support, arising from many years of aircraft cabin entertainment experience.
The individual touch screen control panels provide passengers with controls for such AVCMS components as Blu-ray, LCD monitor, 3-D moving map system, lighting, temperature, cabin speakers, and window shades, among others, including a media dock for iPod use, or any carry-on A/V equipment. A full high-definition video system provides state-of-the-art video quality. The hi-fidelity sound system provides crystal-clear surround sound throughout the cabin. Its highly scalable system architecture can quickly be upgraded to adapt to new consumer electronics.
