The system is designed to integrated securely with existing ATC systems, displaying tracks of both crewed and uncrewed aircraft for maximum situational awareness.
The system includes the following components:

- Margate II ADS-B Receiver – accepts and decodes ADS-B data from broadcasting aircraft, and sends to the UAS-C Gateway for display on the SMS
- UAS-C Gateway – receives the ADS-B or optional radar feeds, processes them to the SMS display, and returns fused surveillance data to the pilot
- Surveillance Monitoring System (SMS) – displays radar, ADS-B, and UAS targets on a convenient single interface
