CARLISLE INTERCONNECT TECHNOLOGIES featured new satellite communications
products for commercial aviation at the AIX 2022 show in Hamburg, Germany, including
the Ka1717 Adapter Plate, Skirt, Radome and ThinKom's proprietary VICTS antennas in
partnership with ThinKom, and the Integrated Adapter Plate and Thermal Management
System in partnership with Gilat Satellite Networks.
According to the company, the Ka1717 platform is geared toward regional jets, single
aisle, and VVIP aircraft to enable connectivity for passengers and support high-bandwidth
services such as streaming, collaboration
tools, messaging platforms, and social
media. It features a low-profile radome for
reduced drag as well as a new, simplified
adapter plate design, all to significantly
reduce weight, operational costs and
initial investment for operators. CarlisleIT
provides installation design, certification
services, and kit manufacturing to support
the integration of the system equipment
provided by ThinKom.
" This antenna addresses performance
limitations that do not meet today's
connectivity requirements, especially for
regional jets, " said Chris Rawley, product
line manager for aircraft connectivity
solutions at CarlisleIT. " We are investing
in a Satcom installation package for what
we believe is an underserved market, and
we are bringing high-bandwidth connectivity to fleets that are currently limited to lowperforming
air-to-ground systems. "
CarlisleIT's Integrated Adapter Plate and Thermal Management System is a custom
installation package design, which accommodates fully-functional ESAs developed and
tested by Gilat Satellite Networks for use with multiple satellite constellations. The TMS
can be scaled to interface with other Electronically Steered Array antennas and provides
a low-profile, compact installation, supporting gate-to-gate Satcom operability.
Carlisle IT also released two new high-voltage composite wire families for aerospace
applications: a high-voltage composite wire family and an ultra-flexible high-voltage
shielded composite wire family. These 1,000-volt composite wire families offer lighter
weight and smaller diameters compared to similar extruded constructions in applications
up to 260 degrees Celsius, according to the company.
