Aircom Pacific partners with Airbus ACJ on innovative Ka-Band system
Called Aerkomm K++, the system will offer a broadband rate of 20 Mbits/s experience per passenger. It combines Aircom Pacific equipment – based on a low-profile antenna – with a retrofit installation designed and implemented by Airbus to EASA and FAA certification standards, which will also be validated by China CAAC.
Aerkomm K++ will provide worldwide coverage including, specifically, within China for Chinese registered aircraft.
“Staying connected has become a necessity of private jet passengers and, in our increasingly connected and digital world, it is something which more and more of us need, and to which we all increasingly aspire,” said Aircom Pacific’s COO Louis Giordimaina.
“Aircom Pacific’s new Aerkomm K++ promises a new and more attractive way to meet these needs, by providing broadband access to passengers, backed by Airbus standards and experience,” he added.
