Comlux and Stellar Blu have signed a letter of intent (LOI) to collaborate on integrating Stellar Blu’s broadband, multi-network satcom connectivity platform, Sidewinder, into the ACJ TwoTwenty. Comlux is the exclusive partner of Airbus on the ACJ TwoTwenty programme.
Leveraging Stellar Blu’s technical expertise, Sidewinder will be adapted to the ACJ TwoTwenty, unlocking access to multiple service providers offering global coverage and services via multiple, redundant networks in LEO, MEO or GEO orbit. Sidewinder utilises a ‘network of networks’ approach, designed to provide a resilient connection supporting full HD streaming, video conferencing and collaborative computing.
Integration of the new connectivity system into the ACJ TwoTwenty will start immediately, with the aim of installing and certifying the system on an aircraft before the end of 2024.
“In addition to the already extraordinary cabin experience, this system will further position the ACJ TwoTwenty at the forefront of new technology,” said Arnaud Martin, CEO of Comlux 2Twenty. “Our partnership with Stellar Blu will transform the way our passengers communicate and stay connected during their flights, enhancing their overall inflight experience.”
“Cooperation with Comlux, a luxury brand and best-in-class completions provider, is a perfect fit for Stellar Blu,” said Tracy Trent, CEO of Stellar Blu. “Together we represent innovation, cutting-edge technology, and a customer-centric approach.”
