Honeywell announced today that its Ovation® Select™ cabin management system has been selected for Embraer's Legacy 450/500 series aircraft.

The value of the contract was not disclosed.

Ovation Select seamlessly integrates digital, high definition, high speed connectivity technology throughout the cabin providing an unparalleled user airborne work experience.

"Our business customers have told us they want an affordable airborne environment that is as good or better than the systems they have in their homes and offices," said Rob Wilson, President, Honeywell Business Aviation. "Ovation Select's key features include a radically redesigned user interface, making passenger in-flight connectivity seamless and easy, whether you're connected via your BlackBerry or laptop, using your iPod™ or watching a Blu-ray movie."

The modular, lightweight and flexible system delivers high-quality, crisp surround sound audio, vivid full high definition (1080p) video and digital communication distribution throughout the cabin, satisfying the growing bandwidth demands of tomorrow's high-tech entertainment, control and communication devices. The architecture is scalable from general aviation aircraft up to and including air transport category business and personal aircraft.

With Ovation Select, Honeywell has incorporated all the digital interfaces needed to connect high-speed satellite communications, consumer electronics from iPod devices, and MP3 players to the AppleTV® and HD gaming systems.

Accessing and controlling the total cabin environment is all accomplished through new icon-based, touch screen passenger interface devices offering a similar look and feel across all of the devices, whether it's the full-size monitor, drink-rail-mounted personal control units, or wireless hand-held remote.

In addition to controlling the system's entertainment and productivity components, Ovation Select also puts lighting, seats, temperature, galley and window shade controls at passengers' fingertips.

Ovation Select is built upon a 100-percent digital architecture with a robust ethernet backbone, which reduces installation time versus competing systems, and facilitates the standard end-to-end self-diagnostic and troubleshooting capability.

The system's media interface unit hosts the optional JetMap3HD moving map application, with high-resolution 3-D moving maps, up to-the-minute news, weather, sports and business updates.

Honeywell developed Ovation Select with its industry-leading partners, Rosen Aviation for widescreen HD display technology and Alto Aviation for high-end audio technology – bringing together a best-in-class cabin team to ensure an unsurpassed in-flight experience.
