Comlux has signed a letter of intent to collaborate with Stellar Blu on the integration of the Sidewinder multi-network satcom connectivity platform into the Airbus ACJ TwoTwenty. The agreement builds on Comlux’s partnership with Airbus on ACJ TwoTwenty completions.
Using a “network of networks” approach, Stellar Blu’s Sidewinder system will be adapted to the ACJ TwoTwenty to enable access to multiple service providers offering global coverage and services via satellite networks in LEO, MEO, or GEO orbit.
The system will support full HD streaming, videoconferencing, and collaborative computing via a resilient broadband connection. Integration into the ACJ TwoTwenty is beginning immediately with the goal of having the system certified on the aircraft by year-end.
“In addition to the already extraordinary cabin experience, this system will further position the ACJ TwoTwenty at the forefront of new technology,” said Arnaud Martin, CEO of Comlux. “Our partnership with Stellar Blu will transform the way our passengers communicate and stay connected during their flights, enhancing their overall inflight experience."
