Garmin GTX-345R ADS-B Transponder – Advanced ADS-B Compliance and Traffic Awareness for Modern Aircraft

The Garmin GTX-345R ADS-B Transponder is a premium remote-mounted Mode S Extended Squitter (ES) transponder engineered to provide aircraft owners and operators with reliable ADS-B Out compliance while delivering powerful ADS-B In capabilities. Designed for seamless integration with Garmin avionics, the GTX-345R enhances situational awareness by providing real-time traffic information, subscription-free weather, and wireless connectivity to compatible cockpit displays and mobile devices. Whether you’re upgrading an existing aircraft or equipping a new installation, the Garmin GTX-345R ADS-B Transponder offers the performance, reliability, and advanced functionality demanded by today’s aviation professionals.

Built to meet FAA ADS-B Out requirements, the Garmin GTX-345R enables aircraft to operate confidently within controlled airspace while improving visibility to air traffic control and nearby aircraft. Its compact remote-mounted design helps maximize valuable panel space, making it an ideal solution for modern cockpits where efficiency and aesthetics matter.

One of the standout features of the Garmin GTX-345R is its dual capability of transmitting ADS-B Out data while simultaneously receiving ADS-B In information. Pilots gain access to subscription-free Flight Information Service-Broadcast (FIS-B) weather, including NEXRAD radar imagery, METARs, TAFs, NOTAMs, TFRs, and other critical weather products. In addition, Traffic Information Service-Broadcast (TIS-B) delivers comprehensive traffic data, helping pilots identify and avoid nearby aircraft during all phases of flight.

The Garmin GTX-345R ADS-B Transponder integrates seamlessly with Garmin G1000®, GTN™ navigators, G500 TXi™, G3X Touch™, and other compatible Garmin avionics. It also supports wireless streaming of traffic and weather information to compatible mobile devices through Garmin Pilot™ and ForeFlight Mobile applications. This connectivity enables pilots to access vital flight information directly on tablets and smartphones, improving cockpit flexibility and situational awareness.

Designed with safety and performance in mind, the GTX-345R features Garmin’s trusted Mode S technology with Extended Squitter functionality. It continuously broadcasts highly accurate aircraft position, altitude, velocity, and identification information using GPS-derived data, ensuring compliance with current ADS-B regulations while supporting safer airspace operations.

For aircraft operators seeking enhanced collision avoidance, the Garmin GTX-345R supports optional active traffic systems and interfaces with compatible traffic advisory systems to provide a more complete traffic picture. Audible traffic alerts can also be delivered through compatible audio panels, allowing pilots to maintain visual focus while remaining informed of potential conflicts.

The remote-mounted architecture of the Garmin GTX-345R offers installation flexibility for a wide range of aircraft, including fixed-wing airplanes, helicopters, and experimental aircraft. By relocating the transponder away from the instrument panel, installers can optimize cockpit layouts without sacrificing performance or accessibility.

Garmin has built the GTX-345R using rugged, aviation-grade components designed to withstand demanding operating environments. Its proven reliability minimizes maintenance requirements while ensuring consistent performance throughout years of service. Combined with Garmin’s industry-leading support and software updates, the GTX-345R represents a long-term investment in aircraft safety and operational efficiency.
