Communication systems for the private jet traveller.

Business jets ferry an organization's most valuable human resources. Whether they are a head of a corporation, or a head of state, business jet passengers need to continue making decisions and communicating while they are on long flights. This is why the business aviation industry has always been quick to adopt new and advanced communications technology.

Communication systems onboard business jets have advanced from the brief call made during a stopover, to the onboard satellite telephone and fax, to today's cabin Wi-Fi hotspot and PDA and cellphone gateways. Satellite communication systems overcame the limits of ground-to-air systems and allowed passangers to make calls and receive information on flights over seas. EMS Aviation, one of the earliest developers of satellite communication antennas and transceivers for aircraft, has been leading the charge in the development and manufacturing of communication systems for business jets. The company's communication systems provide the most resilient in-flight data links. Its avionics enable IP based telephony and PBX systems and connectivity from multiple laptops, iPhones, BlackBerrys and GSM Cellphones. Passengers and flight crews enjoy routine access to telephone service. Handsets with excellent audio quality - both corded and wireless - are suitable for most cabins, while headset interfaces allow for telephone calls to be placed through aircraft audio panels for the flight crew. With the exclusive MMU-II panel-mounted interface, text messaging provides an alternate means to communicate between the flight deck and the ground.

Today EMS Aviation systems are flying on over 2000 aircraft, including those of the most notable world leaders and mavricks of industry. The company's technology is used by leading airframe OEMs Boeing, Gulfstream, Dassault and Bombardier, as well as top avionics companies such as Honeywell and Thales. EMS Aviation holds the leading market share of Inmarsat-based Swift64 terminals and is the industry leader in providing aeronautical broadband connectivity. The company’s eNfusion Broadband solution provides critical communications capabilities to commercial and military users – email, upload, download, video conferencing, streaming video, voice, and data — virtually anywhere in the world.
