About

The AirTRx family delivers reliable, high-speed connectivity across a range of midsize, super midsize (SMS) and large business jets. It serves VIP transportation, private jets, government agencies, and fleet operators with regional and global coverage. Key attributes include a two Line Replaceable Units (LRUs) terminal configuration, a real 3-axis system (elevation, tilt, azimuth) for continuous tracking without ‘key hole’ limitations, superb EIRP spectral density with optimized size, weight, and power, aircraft INS stabilization compatibility, Ethernet, Serial, and ARINC429 interfaces, continuous polarization compensation for Ku-band, 4-port RF front-end support in Ka-band, multiple installation options (tail, fuselage, hatch), a built-in advanced control loop with step-track technology, a radome-covered design for all-weather operation, and multiple configurations from L- to K-band in a single platform.
