GTN 725
The next era of global ADS-B. Compatible with space and ground-based ADS-B surveillance systems, tailBeaconX is a Mode S Extended Squitter ADS-B transponder and WAAS GPS integrated into an LED rear position light. With global compliance, tailBeaconX is the key to limitless destinations. Extend tailBeaconX and your panel’s functionality when you pair AV-30 as tailBeaconX’s control head. AV-30 also functions as a digital primary AI or DG display with even more features for limitless possibilities.
Touch and Go
If you’ve flown with our earlier-generation GNS™ 430 and GNS 530 series avionics, you’ll find the menus of GTN 725 have a familiar layout and feel. But with the GTN 725 touchscreen interface, you’re rarely more than two taps away from all of the system’s primary functions. The large, easy-to-use alphanumeric keypad makes data entry a breeze. Pilot-selectable data fields and shortcuts let you quickly reach the information you need to access most. Much like pinch-to-zoom scaling on a smartphone or tablet, you can use your fingers to zoom in and out on any map, traffic, and terrain pages. You can quickly pan across the moving map by swiping across the 6.9” high-resolution display or enter waypoint data with the full on-screen keyboard.
Fly Approaches, Glidepaths, Holding Patterns and More
With almost double the GPS approach procedures available in the U.S. compared with ground-based ILS approaches, this SBAS/WAAS-certified GPS receiver can allow you to fly GPS-guided LPV glidepath instrument approaches down to as low as 200’, greatly expanding your operational capability. For added flexibility, you can also select vectors to intercept your final approach course and set up a stabilized approach. Precise course deviation and roll steering outputs can be coupled to Garmin autopilots and select third-party autopilots so IFR flight procedures such as holds, NextGen radius-to-fix (RF) legs and missed approaches may be flown automatically.
Add ADS-B Traffic, Weather and More
Available dual-link Garmin ADS-B equipage solutions, such as our GTX™ 345 series transponders or GDL® 88 universal access transceivers, allow GTN 725 to display up to 60 ADS-B traffic targets as well as subscription-free ADS-B weather data in the U.S. The ADS-B weather link provides in-flight access to animated NEXRAD imagery, METARs, TAFs, winds and temperatures aloft, PIREPs, NOTAMs and more. On the traffic side, both visual and audio alerts help you recognize and avoid potential conflicts in busy airspace. Our patented TargetTrend™ relative motion technology offers a faster, more intuitive way to judge the direction and closure rate of intruding targets in relation to your aircraft’s position. And for even more advanced traffic surveillance in high-density airspace, GTN 725 can integrate with select TAS or TCAS systems, including our GTS™ family of traffic surveillance products.
Additional Weather and Connectivity Options
You can couple the GTN 725 system with a GDL 69 series datalink receiver to bring even more safety-enhancing (and enjoyment-enhancing) capabilities to your aircraft. With this arrangement, you’re able to receive SiriusXM® satellite weather and audio entertainment. There’s also an optional GSR 56 receiver that can provide Worldwide Weather data virtually anywhere on the globe, as well as the ability to make and receive phone calls and send and receive text messages while in the air. To help you better understand weather trends, all of the NEXRAD graphical datalink weather options are animated.
Audio Management with Voice Control
By pairing your GTN 725 with one of our GMA™ 35 or GMA 350 series audio panels, you can do even more to enhance and uncomplicate your cockpit communications. With available Bluetooth® wireless connectivity built in, these digital audio systems can be used with your smartphone (or other compatible devices) to make phone calls or stream audio entertainment through your cabin headsets or speakers. In addition, the remote-mount GMA 35 versions enable your GTN 725 touchscreen to double as the control panel for your audio system, providing intuitive audio menus while saving vital space in your avionics stack.
Cockpit Connectivity
For even more work-saving convenience, you can add one of our Flight Stream wireless gateways to your GTN 725 system, allowing you to use our Connext technology to stream information between GTN and compatible Garmin portables or mobile devices running the Garmin Pilot, ForeFlight or FltPlan Go apps. With Flight Stream 210, you can stream information such as ADS-B traffic, weather, GPS data and backup attitude information in real time to your mobile device.
Database Synchronization
For even more capability, you can opt for our Flight Stream 510 to further enhance the Connext experience. This patented multimedia card contains Wi-Fi® and Bluetooth connectivity and installs in the memory card slot of your GTN 725 to provide flight plan transfer, traffic, weather, GPS information and more — plus our Database Concierge database transfer and management capabilities.
