In-flight connectivity specialist Gogo has launched its Gogo Galileo HDX antenna for business jets. The addition of the compact antenna which is linked to the fully operational Eutelsat OneWeb 650-satellite constellation, is bringing what Gogo says is a new era of connectivity, enabling new aircraft segments to optimise broadband services for the very first time.
A Brazilian client, JBJ Agropecuaria was one of the first to retrofit a previously unconnected Embraer Phenom 300 with a Gogo Galileo HDX terminal. José Batista Júnior, CEO of the agriculture and food production corporation, commented that Gogo Galileo HDX will guarantee its senior staff remain productive in the air.
Gogo Galileo HDX terminals are shipping every day, and the service is already proving its worth in combination with Eutelsat OneWeb’s low earth orbit (LEO) Ku-band constellation. Gogo’s service over the US, soon to be upgraded to 5G, offers another connectivity option.
“Operators of larger business and VIP aircraft have long enjoyed service through other systems, including GEO constellations from our airtime partners Intelsat and Viasat. With the advent of the LEO solutions, we’re pleased to bring consistent connectivity to new classes of aircraft for the first time, as well as offering existing customers an alternative connectivity system that strengthens redundancy, and allows for more data to be transmitted to more devices in the cabin,” commented Michael Skou Christensen, Gogo chief commercial officer. “We’re adding value to the inflight experience, and simultaneously augmenting crew operations. Our multi-orbit, multi-band portfolio gives customers the best of LEO, GEO and ATG worlds.”
