The SDR and SDR Gateway facilitate user connectivity onboard the aircraft, enabling laptops, tablets and smartphones to do their jobs so pilots and passengers stay productive at every altitude. Advanced SDR technology allows for superior optimization and customization of the onboard network, for the best inflight internet experience.
Plus, the power of the SDR Series goes beyond the cabin; the SDR collects aircraft performance information to enhance flight operations management tools, including telemetry and position data, fuel indications, operational parameters and more. With its own module in SD Pro, the customer flight ops team can see detailed usage and performance information in real time, and can make adjustments as needed to support optimal network use.
