Classic Aero Services

The Inmarsat satellite communications network is the backbone for two-way voice, fax and data services for aircraft operating virtually anywhere in the world. By using Inmarsat consortium partners, Elektronik Lab’s patented technology makes the complex Inmarsat network global and user friendly.

Various Inmarsat ground earth stations support different services. Customers have operational problems if their satcom system is not configured to match the Inmarsat ground earth station capabilities – Elektronik Lab configures each satcom system to match the Inmarsat service to assure reliable Inmarsat global mobile to fixed and fixed to mobile communications.
