Intelsat, Embraer to Factory Install Multi-Orbit Service

ntelsat, operator of the world’s largest integrated satellite and terrestrial networks and leading provider of in-flight connectivity (IFC), will soon launch high-speed, reliable multi-orbit connectivity service on Embraer E2 aircraft from the day the plane is delivered thanks to a new line-fit agreement with Embraer (NYSE: ERJ / B3: EMBR3) that will allow the aircraft manufacturer to install the equipment during factory production.

“Intelsat is the first multi-orbit satellite inflight connectivity system with an electronically steered array (ESA) antenna to be installed at the Embraer factory, allowing passengers access to reliable, streaming connectivity starting immediately when aircraft enter revenue service ,” said Rob Baird, Director of OEM Programs at Intelsat. “Passengers on Embraer E2 aircraft will soon benefit from multi-orbit connectivity that will provide the same fast and dependable internet access they enjoy at home, thanks to wide coverage and low latency.”

As part of the Buyer-Furnished Equipment agreement to offer Intelsat’s multi-orbit system as a line-fit option on Embraer’s family of E2 aircraft, airline customers can order planes with the Intelsat ESA system already installed and operational upon delivery.
