SmartSky Delivers the Most Compelling User Experience in IFC
SmartSky’s best-in-class inflight connectivity system delivers the most compelling user experience while providing the most secure and most affordable system to all subscriber aircraft flying over the contiguous United States. Forget the buffering common with 3G air-to-ground (ATG) or frustrating limitations caused by high-latency satellite options.
Users can stream, chat, text and game with speeds comparable to the ground. Only SmartSky’s low latency allows live activities such as videoconferencing, WebEx applications and real-time gaming. Dynamic IP addressing, virtualized Evolved Packet Core (vEPC) and single-plane beamforming make SmartSky the most secure network, easily allowing corporate virtual private networks (VPNs). This bidirectional, cost-effective, advanced-technology system is the most affordable IFC option available, built efficiently and economically scalable for the future.

SmartSky provides 10 times the typical speed and capacity of a current ATG network
Supplemental type certificates (STCs) for numerous popular business aviation aircraft model types have been secured, including the Cessna XL, Embraer ERJ135, ERJ145 and Legacy 600/650 series, Gulfstream G450/G550 with many more underway.
SmartSky is committed to keeping true end-to-end latency below 100 milliseconds
More than 1,000 flight hours have been flown to validate, optimize and demonstrate the network
A single beam per aircraft means physical data is more secure and user experience doesn’t deteriorate as the number of
aircraft increases.
Low latency is the key driver for the most compelling user experience while in the air or on the ground and is a cornerstone of 5G technology
Three secure, virtualized Evolved Packet Cores (vEPCs), a 5G technology, are operational.
