Optelity Care Keeps IFE Fresh
TrueNorth Avionics aims to help keep in-flight entertainment equipment from becoming obsolete.

TrueNorth Avionics announced its new Optelity Care in-flight entertainment (IFE) support program at NBAA 2015. Optelity Care is designed to help operators keep airborne connectivity systems up-to-date as technology advances, specifically TrueNorth’s Optelity Pro Cabin Gateway wireless router and Iridium satcom.

“Cabin and airborne connectivity [equipment] evolves rapidly,” said TrueNorth CEO Mark van Berkel. “One of the biggest shifts that we’re seeing is around the connected aircraft. That’s what TrueNorth has been about since day one. Connected aircraft are now taking off everywhere. [There is] even a demand for maintenance purposes. Technicians want to be able to connect tablets and download data and check maintenance status, and make electronic logbook entries without having to go back into the terminal.”
