    • The Gogo Galileo global broadband service has achieved a major milestone in completing end-to-end connectivity using HDX antennas.
    • The company says Gogo Galileo HDX will revolutionise in-flight connectivity for business aviation, offering solutions for aircraft of all sizes, especially small jets.
    • Flight testing of the HDX terminal will begin this summer, with certification and commercial release expected later this year.

    Progress in global wideband antenna testing

    Gogo Business Aviation has announced that its Gogo Galileo global broadband service has achieved another major milestone in completing end-to-end connectivity using HDX antennas for the full deployment of the Eutelsat OneWeb Low Earth Orbit (LEO) satellite network.

    In February, Gogo received the first fully built engineering prototype of an HDX antenna from EchoStar’s Hughes Network Systems, LLC (HUGHES), which is designed to be small enough to fit on almost any size business jet. And immediately begin software integration and validation testing at its headquarters in Broomfield, Colorado.

    Revolutionary changes on business aviation

    Sergio Aguirre, president and chief operating officer of Gogo, said: “Gogo Galileo HDX will revolutionise in-flight connectivity for business aviation, providing a solution for aircraft of all sizes, especially small jets that currently have limited options and no broadband options outside of North America. We remain on track to launch this game-changing technology later this year.”

    Flight testing of the HDX terminal will begin this summer, with certification and commercial release expected later this year. Commenting on the milestone, Jason Sperry, head of business aviation at Eutelsat OneWeb, said: “The successful testing of Gogo Galileo HDX on Eutelsat’s OneWeb network is a meaningful milestone and very timely ahead of the launch of our air connectivity service later this year. Our low-Earth orbit constellation is fully deployed, and we are perfecting our ground infrastructure to provide seamless, low-latency and high-performance broadband connectivity to business jets wherever they fly.”
