Embraer's Phenom 300 has received a supplemental type certificate (STC) for Gogo Business Aviation’s Avance L5 inflight connectivity system. Avance L5 connects to Gogo’s 4G network, speeding connections and expanding Wi-Fi network capacity. The 4G network improves streaming video and audio, on-demand movies, personal smartphone use, and real-time in-flight data for cockpit apps. It also provides a simple pathway to upgrade to Gogo 5G service when it becomes available, scheduled for 2021.

 


The Phenom 300 is the fifth Embraer model to receive approval for the Avance L5 system, and the first to receive an in-service fleet STC. Other models include the Legacy 450 and 500, and the Praetor 500 and 600.

 


“The Avance L5 has been delivering an inflight Wi-fi experience that has delighted out Legacy and Praetor customers, and we’re excited to bring this aftermarket solution to our Phenom 300 customers,” said&nbsp;Johann Bordais, president and CEO of Embraer Services and Support.

 


"Gogo Avance L5 has been added to aircraft of all sizes and mission types, delivering a robust inflight Wi-Fi experience,” added David Salvador, Gogo Business Aviation's v-p of aftermarket sales, “and we’re making it more accessible by adding Embraer’s Phenom 300 series for the aftermarket.”

New developments and products in avionics, specifically about aircraft electronics in the cockpit.
