Among the new products featured at Emteq’s NBAA 2002 exhibit (Booth No. 3429) are a series of additions to the Muskegon, Wis. company’s light emitting diode (LED) line. It emphasized its new high-temperature, low-loss Teflon 75-ohm coaxial cable and its support capabilities for systems such as the Honeywell AIS2000, Honeywell IHAS/TAS and products offered by Iridium original equipment manufacturers.
In emphasizing its LED credentials, Emteq laid claim to being the first company in the aviation industry to work with “true white LEDs” for cabin interiors. LED components introduced at the meeting included the small (1.75-in. mounting diameter), low-power, lightweight ELR03 reading light; disc-type air gaspers to match reading lights; a new exit sign and marker light; and RGB “mood lighting.” In the case of RGB technology, the company stated it will begin offering it as a complement to its full line of already available LED lighting products. Applications for RGB technology include “highlighting ‘exotic’ interior furnishing, full color capability and full programmability for different moods and ambiance.”
