Below you will find brief information for Airborne datalink UL-801. The UL-801 Airborne Datalink provides an air-to-ground two-way digital datalink that meets the need for specific air-to-ground communications. UniLink communicates with multiple ground-based Datalink Service Providers (DSP) using a VHF radio and/or SatCom telephony-based system. The UL-801 contains an internal VHF Data Radio (VDR) and supports connections with up to three FMSs and one remote CDU, and connections to a VDR; and peripheral devices, such as UASC multifunction displays (MFDs) (including the MFD-640 and Electronic Flight Instrument-890R (EFI-890R) displays) and a printer. UniLink capabilities include: Future Air Navigation System (FANS), Controller-Pilot Datalink Communications (CPDLC) messaging, Automatic Dependent Surveillance - Contract (ADS-C), CVR/CVFDR Output for datalink recording, OOOI (Out-Off-On-In) reporting, Automatic position reporting, Fight planning route uplinks, Aircraft triggered events, Clearances/Requests, Textual and graphical color weather maps or depictions in both low and high resolution formats, Digital Automatic Terminal Information System (D-ATIS, which is sometimes referred to as ATIS), Terminal Weather Information for Pilots (TWIP), Free Text messaging, Special Status reports (for example, delays, ETA updates, and diversions).
