VTS SKY SIS II – Streaming System to VTS Intelligent Touch Screen Monitors - Restores your IFE to better-than-new condition in a couple of days at 1/3 to 1/2 the cost. No new certification is required and it provides immediate system improvement, cost, weight/fuel savings.
VTS has been asked by many airlines to help solve this old, failing or out of date picture quality seatback system problem.
VTS understands how a broken seatback system provides a huge passenger service problem, especially on older, long haul aircraft, but at $4,000 - $6,000 per seat for a new seatback system ($2-$4 Million replacement) that investment in older aircraft can be daunting.
The solution is VTS SKY SYS II, the new VTS Seatback Retrofit and Upgrade System, which simply removes the old seatback monitor, heavy video cables and junction boxes and then installs a new VTS Streaming Server, WAPs and VTS high definition seat back touch screen powered by the older system’s seat power. Each seat back display has its own WiFi antenna and receiver.
