JetWave X High-Speed Satellite Communications Hardware

Overview
Whether you are traveling on a business aircraft, flying with an airline or using connectivity to achieve your mission, JetWave and Honeywell Forge have you covered. JetWave's powerful connectivity delivers high-speed internet no matter where you travel or what your objective.

Designed to provide broadband-class data connectivity, the hardware and network are optimized for mobility to provide a consistently outstanding passenger experience all over the world. Passengers can experience the same Wi-Fi connection at 40,000 feet as they would on the ground.

These two MCS (Multi-Channel Satcom) configurations use identical RF and antenna controller, modem and router components, with the only difference being that the MCS-8000 uses a tailmounted antenna and the MCS-8100 uses a fuselage mounted antenna. Both systems include a common RF and antenna controller, modem and router.

Key properties: 
  • System operates on Inmarsat Aviation’s Global Xpress Ka-band network, with four satellites covering the entire globe (polar regions excepted)
  • True global broadband class connectivity
  • FMA capable of speeds up to 50 Mbps
  • TMA capable of speeds up to30 Mbps
  • Committed Information Rates (CIRs)
  • Service offered through industry-leading Distribution Partners (DPs)
  • Worldwide support through Distribution Partners, Honeywell service depots, and Inmarsat ground network and product experts
  • Service available now
