Thrane & Thrane Aviator 350 Ready to Fly

 

Thrane & Thrane announces innovative data streaming developments for its cutting-edge AVIATOR 350 SwiftBroadband solution. The developments follow Inmarsat's launch of  the SB X-Stream service, which has enabled Thrane & Thrane to significantly enhance the data streaming capability of its HGA (High Gain Antenna) SwiftBroadband solutions. By using the new SB X-Stream service,
users are able to stream data at rates above 256Kbps at an elevation of above 10 degrees.

"This latest Inmarsat development represents another leap forward for unmanned aircraft communications. High-speed data and video streaming has become critical in the advancement of UAS platforms conducting ISR operations which enables better real-time communication from the aircraft to the ground. The launch of the Inmarsat SB X-Stream service supports our ongoing commitment to provide this growing sector with cutting-edge communications technology and has enabled us to increase the speed at which AVIATOR 350 can stream data," comments Andy Beers, Director of Aeronautical Sales Americas, Thrane & Thrane.

The Inmarsat SB X-Stream service provides data streaming at rates above 256Kbps, enabling higher quality of service and more data to be streamed at a faster rate, supporting a wide range of applications within UAS, military and government sectors. Thrane & Thrane's AVIATOR 350 uses a HGA to provide full 'broadband-in-the-sky' functionality which includes an extensive range of voice, data and video services. The solution will incorporate the new Inmarsat SB X-Stream service with immediate effect as no change in hardware for existing SwiftBroadband approved products is
required.
