and outside of the aircraft in the most severe noise environments, which is vital in the environments in which we operate on a day-to-day basis.”
The PNG WICS system is designed for integration into any aircraft communications suite, or it can be deployed as a standalone portable system. PNG provides robust, reliable, clear and secure full-duplex communications to crew members who are either wired or wireless.

The DO-160G (environmental-airborne) and DO-178C (software-airborne) qualified PNG WICS is integrated with the aircraft intercom system, increasing mission capability and operational safety for the most challenging scenarios, particularly during rescue hoist missions.
The PNG WICS frees crew members from the encumbrance of wired connections to the intercom while minimizing the potential for ICS cord-snag hazards. Additionally, PNG provides for the ability to move freely inside as well as outside the aircraft while maintaining real-time communications with the crew.
