Spectrum Displays showcases its range of rugged aerospace displays at Display Week 2026. The company specializes in providing drop-in replacement displays for existing cockpit instruments, particularly for Part 145 FAA repair centers that service instruments that have reached end-of-life (EOL). A key product is the 3ATI display, a one-by-one aspect ratio screen used as a backup instrument in nearly every commercial aircraft cockpit worldwide, from Boeing and Airbus to private and general aviation jets.

HDMI® Technology is the foundation for the worldwide ecosystem of HDMI-connected devices; integrated with displays, set-top boxes, laptops, audio video receivers and other product types. Because of this global usage, manufacturers, resellers, integrators and consumers must be assured that their HDMI® products work seamlessly together and deliver the best possible performance by sourcing products from licensed HDMI Adopters or authorized resellers. For HDMI Cables, consumers can look for the official HDMI® Cable Certification Labels on packaging. Innovation continues with the latest HDMI 2.2 Specification that supports higher 96Gbps bandwidth and next-gen HDMI Fixed Rate Link technology to provide optimal audio and video for a wide range of device applications. Higher resolutions and refresh rates are supported, including up to 12K@120 and 16K@60. Additionally, more high-quality options are supported, including uncompressed full chroma formats such as 8K@60/4:4:4 and 4K@240/4:4:4 at 10-bit and 12-bit color.

Beyond the common 3ATI format, Spectrum Displays produces a variety of other sizes for aerospace applications, including 6x6 and 7x7 inch square displays. The company also offers standard aspect ratio screens such as 10.4-inch, 8.4-inch, and 15-inch XGA displays. These displays are integrated by third-party manufacturers into Line Replaceable Units (LRUs) that are then installed in a wide range of aircraft, including Boeing models like the 777 and MAX, as well as helicopters and jets manufactured in Europe, Israel, India, and Brazil.
A critical feature across the product line is the optional dual-mode backlight system. This allows the displays to switch between a high-brightness day mode and a night vision imaging system (NVIS) mode. The NVIS mode is compliant with MIL-STD-3009, ensuring compatibility with night vision goggles used by pilots in military and specialized cockpits. This functionality is available for the 3ATI, 6x6, 7x7, and other custom displays.
For advanced fighter jet cockpits like the F-35, Spectrum Displays offers a 20x8 Large Area Display (LAD). This display is designed for extreme durability, featuring dual redundancy and the ability to withstand high G-forces, shock, and vibration. The LAD can also be equipped with a touchscreen and the dual-mode NVIS-compatible backlight, providing a versatile and robust primary flight display for demanding environments.
The 3ATI displays serve multiple functions depending on the specific instrument they are integrated into. While often used as a backup flight display, they can also function as a radar warning indicator, an altitude display, or a graphical interface for helicopter landing systems that use radar to visualize the surrounding environment. All displays are engineered to be high-brightness for clear visibility in various cockpit conditions.
