Sagetech Announces World’s Smallest Mode S Transponder With ADS-B

Sagetech Corporation has unveiled the new Mode S Transponder with ADS-B Out, which this week was released for production.

The Sagetech XP Family of Transponders offers the lightest and smallest transponders in the world, ideal where size, weight and power are at a premium. They have a footprint the size of a business card and at 100g, weigh 30% less than an iPhone.  All Sagetech XP Family Transponders have an integrated altitude encoder, which is compliant to FAA TSO requirements.  The Sagetech XP Mode S Transponder with ADS-B Out provides full ICAO Mode S performance and ADS-B extended squitter outputs. In addition to the new Mode S transponder, Sagetech offers a Mode C unit and is working on the ADS-B In/Out version.

  1. Am interested in your new transponder for a sailplane. Can you please provide battery drain and output specifications. When will the C mode unit be available?
