High-Speed Data And Voice Communications Over Broadband
Network
The first Falcon business jet equipped with Honeywell's new MCS
7120 Swift Broadband Communications Gateway was delivered by
Dassault Falcon on March 24th. The system provides a fully
integrated wired and wireless cabin communication system and high
speed global connectivity via the Inmarsat I4 Satellite Network.
The Falcon 7X is the first business jet in the industry capable of
providing fully-managed end-to-end VoIP telephony services over the
Swift Broadband network. Managed VoIP (Voice over Internet
Protocol) services deliver significantly higher quality audio
performance because of dedicated bandwidth to each call, assuring
excellent audio fidelity.
"What this system delivers is greater connectivity and
productivity which will ensure passengers can stay in touch and
continue to work as they fly on domestic and international
flights," said John Rosanvallon, President and CEO of Dassault
Falcon.
The system provides integrated voice and high-speed data
communications for cabin and cockpit applications over a wide range
of services including seamless use in the air or on the ground of a
PDA, Blackberry, iPhone, fax or computer. The service is capable of
providing more than five times the bandwidth than other services
currently available.
The first Falcon 7X aircraft with the Swift Broadband
Communications Gateway system was delivered in Europe and the
system is available on all current production Falcon aircraft as an
option.
