Astronics and Panasonic To Offer Fast Service
The two companies have joined forces to offer enhanced highspeed connectivity.

Connectivity hardware manufacturer Astronics Aerosat (Booth C8543) has partnered with in-flight entertainment and connectivity service provider Panasonic Avionics (Booth C13146) to provide high-speed communication services and global live television programming to the business aviation market. Together they will offer dedicated broadband data Internet services, four channels of global television services, and regional DBS-TV programming, all from a single antenna.

“This is a market we’ve looked at for a long time,” said David Bruner, Panasonic’s vice president of global communications, announcing the agreement at NBAA 2015. “You have to have proper hardware technology on the airplane, which we did not have.”
