The two companies have signed a letter of intent (LOI) to collaborate on integrating Stellar Blu's broadband, multi-network satcom connectivity platform, Sidewinder, into the ACJ TwoTwenty. Comlux's exceptional status as the exclusive partner of Airbus on the ACJ TwoTwenty programme makes this collaboration a game-changer, promising an unmatched connectivity experience.

The integration of Stellar Blu's advanced Sidewinder connectivity system into the ACJ TwoTwenty is set to redefine in-flight connectivity, offering passengers a unique blend of speed, resiliency and coverage while making them feel more at home during their flights. Leveraging Stellar Blu's technical expertise, Sidewinder will be adapted to the ACJ TwoTwenty to provide an unparalleled in-flight experience by unlocking access to multiple service providers, offering global coverage and services via multiple, redundant networks in LEO, MEO or GEO orbit. Utilising this “network of networks” approach, Sidewinder provides a resilient connection, supporting full HD streaming, video conferencing and collaborative computing via the resilient, broadband connection.

Integration of the new connectivity system into the ACJ TwoTwenty will start immediately, with the aim of installing and certifying the system on an aircraft before the end of 2024. This forward-thinking approach demonstrates Comlux and Stellar Blu's commitment to staying on the cutting edge of technology, ensuring that ACJ TwoTwenty passengers enjoy an experience that is both exceptional and innovative.
