CCX Technologies has inked a distribution agreement with Avant Aerospace. The agreement gives Avant, an aviation parts distributor, the exclusive right to sell CCX's T-RX avionics radio and pulse testers in South America and Mexico.

“The Avant team has a deep understanding, strong presence and excellent reputation in South America and Mexico, a clear advantage as we expand our T-RX tester's footprint into the region,” says Chris Bartlett, president of CCX Technologies, based in Ottawa, Canada.. “When it comes to customer support, our philosophy is simple: provide it where our customers are based. This agreement is an essential step in our aim to make avionics testing easier and more efficient for aircraft maintainers around the world, and we welcome this great opportunity to work with Avant. It is a leader in the MRO field, and we look forward to building a strong relationship.”

Aircraft maintainers and technicians use the T-RX to test the majority of avionics radio systems with more than 100 different tests. Rugged, easy to use and portable, the T-RX replaces legacy testers with a single, compact unit that is easy to upgrade as new test requirements and standards emerge. The T-RX streamlines testing and allows maintainers to print test reports and incorporate them into customer work orders, saving time while giving confidence that testing is done right.

“At Avant, we pride ourselves on delivering the highest quality certified parts and service to MROs,” said John Hardy, director of Avant Aerospace. “We are keen to put the T-RX to use testing our own parts, but more importantly, giving MROs all over South America and Mexico the ability to benefit from its streamlined testing capabilities. We're pleased to have this opportunity to represent CCX in this growing market.”

The T-RX avionics radio and pulse tester is a rugged, wireless, touch-screen tablet that is portable and easy to use with an intuitive interface. Some examples of tests the T-RX performs are: VOR, Localizer, Glideslope, ILS, Marker, VHF Com generate and receive, HF Com generate and receive, 32 Tone SELCAL HF/VHF, ELT 406, DME, TCAS, Mode A/C/S Transponder, ADS-B Out 1090, ADS-B In 1090, ADS-B Out 978 (UAT) and ARINC 429 RX.
