PODCAST: Intelsat’s John Wade Talks Future of Software-defined Satellites and In-flight Connectivity

On this episode of the Connected Aviation Intelligence Podcast, we feature a sponsored interview with Intelsat.

John Wade, president of the commercial aviation division of Intelsat, joins the episode to explain how the introduction of software-defined satellites will revolutionize in-flight connectivity (IFC).

Intelsat signed a contract with Airbus to build two OneSat satellites operating in multiple frequency bands that will power their next-generation software-defined network earlier this year.

John talks about how that technology will improve in-flight connectivity performance and also gives a status update on Intelsat’s current install base in terms of the number of connected commercial aviation aircraft using their current satellite network.
