Thrane & Thrane SwiftBroadband Thriller For Aero-SB Lite

July 2, 2009

Thrane & Thrane has received Type Approval from Inmarsat for its latest SwiftBroadband solution Aero-SB Lite to be combined with the HGA 6000 High Gain Antenna.

Thrane + Thrane Aero-SB Lite When fully integrated with Aero-SB Lite, the HGA 6000 will provide users with data speeds of up to 432 kbps. Thrane & Thrane has already received Inmarsat Type Approval for the TT-5006 Intermediate Gain Antenna (IGA) and the EMS AMT-50 HGA to be combined with Aero-SB Lite and other antennas are currently under consideration by Inmarsat for use with the cutting-edge SwiftBroadband solution. Aero-SB Lite is the lightest and most compact SwiftBroadband system on the market, enabling cost effective broadband, suitable for the widest range of aircraft possible. Users of the HGA 6000 can benefit from an easy and cost effective upgrade to Aero-SB Lite, as the SwiftBroadband solution can be integrated with the existing antenna, therefore reducing the overall cost and installation time. By fully harnessing the power of the internet, email, VPN, fax and telephony in one compact and lightweight package, Aero-SB Lite exceeds the ongoing requirement to provide a true office in the sky. The system offers a wealth of functionality including built in WiFi capability and VoiP technology, where users can utilize their own compatible handsets or WiFi enabled PDA devices. Additionally, the data and voice functionality of Aero-SB Lite can be used simultaneously ensuring total flexibility for the end user.
