Inmarsat's European Bizav Wi-Fi to Bow by New Year
System combines Inmarsat satcom service with ground-based 4G LTE network

Satcom network provider Inmarsat (Booth X107) is planning to introduce its European Aviation Network (EAN) in-flight Wi-Fi service to the business aviation market by January, the company announced on Monday at EBACE 2018. The service integrates satcom connectivity from Inmarsat with an LTE-based ground network operated by Deutsche Telekom, covering all 28 EU member states, as well as Switzerland and Norway. The combination offers fast connectivity and low-latency performance over land or water, providing the bandwidth for data-rich Internet use, such as working with remote business desktops and streaming hi-def videos at speeds comparable to ground-based mobile broadband.
