Internet protocol communications over alternative frequency band of existing MIL-STD-1553 bus

A method comprising using at least one hardware processor of a device, which comprises a first adapter configured to connect to an Internet Protocol (IP) network and a second adapter configured to be connected to a Military Standard 1553 (MS1553) bus, to:

• receive first IP data from the IP network via the first adapter;
• convert the first IP data into first transport data in accordance with Standard Agreement 7221 (S7221);
• and
• transmit the first transport data on the MS1553 bus within a frequency range of 25 Megahertz to 65 Megahertz.

A non-transitory computer-readable medium having instructions stored therein, wherein the instructions, when executed by a processor of a device, which comprises a first adapter configured to connect to an Internet Protocol (IP) network and a second adapter configured to be connected to a Military Standard 1553 (MS1553) bus, cause the processor to:

• receive first IP data from the IP network via the first adapter;
• convert the first IP data into first transport data in accordance with Standard Agreement 7221 (S7221);
• transmit the first transport data on the MS1553 bus within a frequency range of 25 Megahertz to 65 Megahertz;
• receive second transport data from the MS1553 bus;
• convert the second transport data into second IP data in accordance with the Internet Protocol;
• and
• transmit the second IP data over the IP network.
