Editorial interest 79/100 Selection signal · not a rating of the site

FiberLink Aero sells matched AIR and GROUND modules that carry compatible autopilot UART telemetry to a ground computer over single-mode fiber.

Landing page captured for the 2026-10-23 issue.
For
Autopilot users linking to a ground-control computer
Worth noticing
The modules use ST optical ports, with transmit and receive wavelengths reversed between the AIR and GROUND ends.

Field notes

The AIR module combines the autopilot-side power and UART connection; the GROUND module combines USB-C power with the host’s serial interface. The page lists different transmit and receive wavelengths at each end—1310/1550 nm on AIR and 1550/1310 nm on GROUND—and calls for matching baud rates. It also specifies a compatible telemetry-port pinout and sufficient 5 V power as checks before installation.
