The Aspire 350 is a satellite communications system that delivers mission-critical safety services and high-speed voice and data communications for cockpits and cabins, using the upgraded Iridium NEXT satellite network and Certus services. The system also supports the global Future Air Navigation System (FANS) datalink.
The compact and lightweight Aspire 350 system consists of a satellite data unit, SATCOM configuration module, high-gain antenna, and a small low-gain antenna for safety services. With a smaller footprint, Aspire 350 allows operators to reduce aircraft fuel costs.
Aspire 350 supports dual SATCOM capabilities, enabling a second Honeywell solution to be installed in conjunction. This results in enhanced reliability and increased network coverage, and also provides critical redundancy in the event that one system cannot operate.
