Briefing

What Hype is tracking

Locks in Ku-band GEO capacity for Anuvu’s IFE/IFC offering via EUTELSAT 10B, providing a clearer supply baseline for onboard connectivity service delivery.
Reinforces the still-active role of GEO capacity even as the industry discusses multi-orbit shifts—an issue highlighted in Eutelsat: Multi-orbit IFC adoption makes aircraft connectivity resilient and secure-by-design a must.
Signals competitive continuity in inflight connectivity contracting similar to Air India’s selection of Hughes for Ka-band IFC across a mixed widebody fleet, where airlines and integrators standardize bandwidth and service layers.
