TrueNorth's Simphone Global Broadband For BizAv Available In Q3 '09

Twenty Pound System Offers Worldwide High-Speed Data Service

TrueNorth Avionics recently announced its new compact, affordable satellite-based high-speed data system, Simphone Global Broadband (SGBB), will be available in the third quarter of 2009.

Designed for business aviation, Simphone Global Broadband is a compact system comprising a 2-MCU processor, high-power amplifier and a low-profile antenna, with a system weight of less than 20 lbs. Powered by Cobham technology, Simphone (pronounced 'symphony') Global Broadband uses Inmarsat’s SwiftBroadBand service to provide worldwide communications through the entire flight regime, including on the ramp and at altitudes below 10,000 ft. AGL Paired with the Simphone Chorus airborne telephone and its built-in data routing and Wi-Fi capabilities, SGBB offers business aircraft operators a total global voice, data and cabin networking solution.

TrueNorth says its SGBB system is easy to install, requires just a single connector, and its compact footprint makes it ideal for a range of aircraft, from light jets and turboprops to intercontinental business airplanes. Different antenna options are available to provide data transfer rates in excess of 400 kbps.

"Very simply, we set out to provide business aircraft operators with a compact, affordable solution that works everywhere they fly, and that’s what Simphone Global Broadband is all about," said TrueNorth CEO Mark van Berkel.
