AT&T and Honeywell To Offer High-speed Wireless Internet

Honeywell Aerospace will be the exclusive hardware provider of domestic air-to-ground communication for AT&T’s planned in-flight connectivity services, which will bring faster Wi-Fi to passengers on airliners and business jets. With the new 4G LTE service, passengers will experience air-to-ground speeds significantly higher than today’s. Under terms of an agreement in principle with AT&T, Honeywell exclusively will build and deliver aircraft hardware needed to connect to AT&T’s planned air-to-ground system in the U.S. Implementation target date is the end of next year.
