Once-in-a-lifetime every day

Once-in-a-lifetime every day

It’s the last minute of the Superbowl, your child is taking its first steps, it’s the vital video conference sealing an important deal, and then the connectivity falters. Despite the ubiquitous presence of technology, interrupted coverage happens in offices and homes worldwide, yet consistent coverage is a given for large jets equipped with SD dual dissimilar terminals.

We call it dual dissimilar, as it allows users to effortlessly switch between two distinctive satellite networks. By effectively harnessing the power of our Plane Simple® Ku- and Ka-band tail mount antennas (dual), linking them with two different satellite constellations (dissimilar) and merging them into one cohesive package, customers can leverage the best aspects of each network to deliver full redundancy and ensure uninterrupted global connectivity via the Inmarsat JetConnex and Intelsat FlexExec networks. Streamlined, seamless connectivity reigns supreme, and Satcom Direct’s latest innovation delivers the redundancy that contemporary connectivity customers demand.

The combined power delivers an unprecedented level of redundancy and reliability by synchronizing and integrating these disparate systems into a seamless whole. Your aircraft stays connected no matter the obstacles in its trajectory, and users remain unaware of the network transition.

Our executives are already optimizing the capabilities of our Gulfstream G550 during daily operations and showcasing these amazing capabilities to customers and media alike. To prove our point, we’ve flown legs with nearly 40 devices simultaneously experiencing constant coverage for video streaming, avionics, onboard entertainment, and data hungry applications for airframe and personal devices.

The combination of dual antennas increases the available bandwidth to the aircraft. We’re making digital communications, aircraft performance monitoring, and crew operations support for avionics and cabin WiFi more robust and constantly reliable. For times when principals are on board with an accompanying entourage, the technology can be prioritized to chosen passenger devices. Key stakeholders always maintain the required connection, even when data demand in the cabin is high.  With dual dissimilar in place, critical communications are in the capable hands of Satcom Direct’s ground-breaking terminals, and you’ll never miss another beat during those once-in-a-lifetime moments.

Call us to discuss the benefits of equipping the dual dissimilar technology, as we remain committed to connecting you beyond all expectations.
