Satcom Direct (SD; Booth T106) is showcasing its Plane Simple Ku-band, tail-mounted antenna system at EBACE this year. The Plane Simple terminal, which runs on Intelsat’s global satellite network, was purpose-built for the business aviation sector. Small enough to fit on small business jets, the compact antenna packs enough power to support streaming and videoconferencing on multiple devices. 

“We wanted something that was more efficient than anything else out there, and that didn't take up space in the baggage compartment,” SD chief commercial officer Michael Skou Christensen told AIN. He added that the simplicity of the design also makes it more durable and reliable.
