European operators have a number of choices to equip their aircraft with inflight connectivity. Now they can take advantage of a qualified satcom installation from Carlisle Interconnect Technologies to support Inmarsat’s Global Xpress Ka-band satellite-powered Internet service on Airbus A320 family aircraft.
CarlisleIT says it has received a new Supplemental Type Certificate (STC) from EASA covering installation of all aircraft structural provisions – outside aircraft equipment and electrical integration packages – for the Honeywell JetWave Ka connectivity system. JetWave transmits connectivity service via Inmarsat GX.
Manufactured at CarlisleIT’s Franklin, Wisconsin factory, the installation kits are certified for application on A319, A320, and A321 aircraft.

Carlisle Interconnect Technologies (CIT) announced today that it has received a patent for its third generation of ARINC 791/792 Adjustable Fittings for existing and emerging aerospace applications. The new patented fittings allow for simple, error-proof, and efficient installation performed using only basic hand tools. The ARINC 791/792 Adjustable Fittings significantly reduce installation compared to traditional methods as they do not require special fixtures or tools, shims, or match drilling.
This new solution is ARINC 791/792-compliant as well as RTCA/DO-160 and original equipment manufacturer (OEM) qualified. Adaptable to existing ARINC 791, these fittings also incorporate ARINC 791/792 slip requirements with z-axis (height) adjustability to support conversion from ARINC 791 to 792 equipment installation. These fittings ensure the lowest possible installation height for electronically steered antenna (ESA) applications, provide z-axis adjustability to account for structure var
