Airborne Wireless Network Introduced Infinitus Super Highway(SM) at the Global Connected Aircraft (GCA) Summit 2018

The company, a gold sponsor at the GCA Summit, along with other gold sponsors including GoGo, HCL, Rockwell Collins and Thales Avionics, had the opportunity to speak to over 400 GCA Summit registrants, of which more than 100 were airline representatives from more than 27 countries. 

"The GCA Summit attracted the who's who of the aerospace, airline and airborne network communications industries," said Michael Warren, CEO of Airborne Wireless Network. "We not only had direct access to airline customers but the venue opened the door to explore mutually beneficial cooperation between us and established airline and aerospace suppliers."

One of the highlights of the GCA Summit was the panel discussion on "Business Jets and the Connected Equation," which addressed the unmet demands of this rapidly expanding global market segment. Jason de Mos, Airborne's vice president of business development and compliance, discussed the need for a paradigm shift in order to achieve connectivity improvements and to deliver increased bandwidth at a reasonable cost.

In a separate segment, ABWN supported the focus on "Operations" and how airlines and business jet operators can create greater efficiencies in operations through increased aircraft connectivity bandwidth through a common backbone with path breaking capacity.  ABWN was joined by GoGo and SmartSky Networks on this panel.  An interesting historical note was mentioned on the heritage of the original Airfone spectra becoming the Air-cell spectra and now known as GoGo.

About Airborne Wireless Network

Airborne Wireless Network is developing and commercializing a disruptive technology for global connectivity called the Infinitus Super Highway^SM. The technology will feature a fully meshed network virtually impervious to interruption using aircraft as repeaters to route high-speed broadband internet across the globe.

The company intends to create a high-speed broadband airborne wireless network by linking commercial aircraft in flight. It is projected that each aircraft participating in the network will act as an airborne repeater, or router, sending and receiving broadband signals from one aircraft to the next and creating a digital information superhighway in the sky. The company intends the network to be a high-speed broadband internet pipeline to improve coverage and connectivity. The company does not intend to provide retail customer coverage to end users but to act instead as a wholesale carrier with target customers, such as internet service providers and telephone companies.

Currently, the world's connectivity is achieved by use of undersea cables, ground-based fiber, and satellites. The company believes that its airborne digital highway may be a solution to fill the world's connectivity void. Once the network is developed and fully implemented, its uses may be limitless. The company's network, once developed, should provide low-cost, high-speed connectivity to rural areas, island nations, ships at sea, and oil platforms, in addition to connectivity to commercial and private aircraft in flight.
