Gilat Signed Agreement with Satellite Broadband Provider for the High Growth In-Flight Connectivity market September 24, 2015 Gilat Satellite Networks Ltd. has signed a long-term agreement to develop and supply high-performance dual Ku/Ka-band terminals for in-flight connectivity (IFC) on commercial aircraft. Benefitting from Gilat's longstanding expertise in high-performance and low-profile antenna design, the new Ku/Ka-band in-flight connectivity solution will enable IFC service providers to deliver global and continuous broadband coverage on commercial aircraft. Gilat will develop and provide a dual Ku/Ka-band antenna with its proprietary power amplifiers (KRFU and KANDU). The antenna is also intended to meet the requirements for future line fit installations. This unique competitive configuration offers a scalable, cost-effective global bandwidth solution to meet growing broadband requirements, to optimize bandwidth allocation and to ensure continuous coverage on more airline routes. Rollout is expected in 2017. "The new terminal leverages our proven technological capabilities in both industry-leading Wavestream airborne transceivers and advanced UAV terminals," said Moshe (Chico) Tamir, Corporate Vice President and President of Gilat's Mobility Division. "We are excited to expand our offering and to put the best terminal for high-speed Internet access on board commercial flights."
