Honeywell Receives First Global Xpress Approval
U.S. FAA certification on Boeing 757 paves the way for approvals on other aircraft.

Honeywell has received the first certification for its JetWave hardware for Inmarsat’s new Global Xpress high-speed broadband network. Inmarsat achieved commercial service introduction for the new Ka-band Global Xpress network at the end of 2015 with an initial constellation of three Ka-band communication satellites. Plans call for a fourth to be launched in the second half of this year.
