When every second counts, having a reliable, high-resolution, uninterrupted view from above is a necessity, not a luxury. Vislink’s Aero5 system meets that need with precision, delivering real-time air-to-ground live video transmission over 5G and LTE for law enforcement and emergency response teams operating in high-stakes environments.
Robust, High-Throughput Connectivity
Engineered for easy aircraft integration, the lightweight Aero5 represents the most advanced 4K UHD, low latency, bonded 5G technology solution for airborne platforms. The Aero5 solution consists of an aircraft-mounted cellular encoder/transceiver and a rugged, DO-160 G-tested antenna pod. It establishes a high-throughput, bi-directional link via its support for up to eight bonded 5G modems and two Starlink or LEO connections. Aero5 can also function independently using satellite connectivity—ensuring continuous operation in even the most remote regions.
Seamless Integration and Scalable Performance
Built for flexible integration with existing infrastructure, Aero5 supports video, file transfers, push-to-talk communications, and data networking. Operators can stream seamless live video to command centers and field units, while LinkMatrix – Vislink’s cloud-based management platform – enables centralized control and sharing of multiple live video streams across the mission network.
Wide Range of Mission-Critical Use Cases
Aero5 is purpose-built to support a variety of critical airborne missions, including:
- Police Surveillance: Monitor real-time activity from the sky during active operations, pursuits, or crowd control situations.
- Air Medevac: Provide live video support to hospitals and trauma teams for improved situational readiness.
- Firefighting: Track fire progression and support aerial suppression coordination with high-resolution visual feeds.
- Search and Rescue (SAR): Cover rugged, remote areas to aid rapid victim identification and recovery efforts.
- Disaster Response: Quickly assess damage zones and coordinate multi-agency relief efforts.
- Border and Perimeter Monitoring: Enhance coverage of remote or difficult-to-access boundaries using aerial surveillance.
Standalone or Hybrid Transmission Flexibility
The Aero5 was designed with scalability in mind. It can operate as a standalone cellular or LEO-based downlink or be seamlessly integrated with the Vislink AeroLink COFDM transmitter to create a robust, hybrid transmission solution. The AeroLink transmitter has been successfully deployed by police and sheriff departments across North America.
Real-Time Video Intelligence for Critical Missions
As part of Vislink’s Airborne Video Downlink Systems (AVDS) suite, Aero5 embodies the company’s commitment to deliver real-time video intelligence for critical missions. Vislink AVDS represents the industry’s most comprehensive transmit-receive-distribute-management video downlink platform. It has been purpose-built to share secure, high-definition video from “Air to Anywhere,” with its feeds enabling ground-based commanders to assess unfolding situations in real time and coordinate effective, rapid cross-agency response.
Built for the Future of Public Safety
In unpredictable environments, adaptability is key. Aero5 ensures a scalable, future-ready video downlink capability for today’s fast-moving public safety missions.
