Aircraft Cabin & IFE Testing
Aircraft cabin and IFE testing covers the shop testing of in-flight entertainment (IFE) displays, passenger service units and other cabin electronics after removal from the aircraft. Because cabin systems are usually specific to the IFE supplier and aircraft programme, much of this testing is done on dedicated IFE testers or custom automated test equipment (ATE). Astronics Test Systems lists IFE testers among its point solutions and states experience building test solutions for in-flight entertainment displays and passenger service units, together with test program set development, commissioning, calibration and training [1].
Applications
- Functional testing of IFE displays returned from the cabin [1].
- Testing of passenger service units [1].
- Acceptance and design verification testing for cabin electronics [1].
Equipment types
- Dedicated IFE testers [1].
- Custom automated test equipment with hardware and software integration [1].
- General purpose VXI, PXI and software-driven instruments for test benches [1].
How to select a solution

Frequently asked technical questions
Is there a universal IFE tester?
Cabin systems differ by supplier, so testers are matched to the IFE system or built as custom ATE [1].
Can Novatelia quote custom ATE?
Yes, as an RFQ to the manufacturer with your LRU list and test procedures; scope and delivery depend on the OEM.
