GDC Completes Ka-Band Install on Executive 787
Work on a second installation is under way and a third installation on an ACJ319 is scheduled for this quarter.

 GDC Technics has completed the first Ka-Band satcom installation on an executive-configured Boeing 787. The installation uses Honeywell’s JetWave terminal to link to Inmarsat’s Jet ConneX satellite network, providing “in-flight connectivity that is as good as [that] at home and in [the]office,” said GDC Technics’ general partner Mohammed Alzeer. The service supports video streaming, Voice over IP, live TV, VPN and other bandwidth-intensive applications.
