Major benefits of EAN hybrid system vs. traditional Satcom solutions
© Copyright Inmarsat Global Limited 201616
System weight and drag
> Low weight and drag minimizes additional fuel costs ($)
System size > Fits on all regional airframes
Availability -MTBF
> Antenna has no moving parts - high MTBF provides a service with superior availability
> Less downtime improves customer perception and experience
Spares –space/storage
> High availability requires fewer LRUs to support, EAN LRUs are smaller and lighter vs. Satcomsolutions
Repairs costs –MTTR/downtime
> LRUs are smaller, lighter and easier to access, fewer personnel, less equipment and less time required vs. Satcom solutions
> Quick turn repairs minimize opportunity costs (aircraft back in service more quickly)

High smartphone ownership drives a higher usage of mobile data across Europe. Overall, three out of four internet users in Europe access the web via mobile broadband. Usage growth is exponential.
European mobile network users consume primarily real-time entertainment and data hungry applications such as YouTube

EAN‟s cellular architecture allows network capacity to be increased quickly and cost effectively in response to:
> Evolving pax behaviour – i.e. more streaming, higher take rates
> Hub area traffic growth
> More aircraft installations
> Route system changes
