Boeing to Offer Panasonic’s eXConnect to Government Customers

Under a new deal between Boeing and Panasonic Avionics, Boeing will offer eXConnect - Panasonic’s secure, satellite-based, inflight broadband service - to government customers within and outside the United States.

With final terms being negotiated, the two companies have agreed on a framework for Boeing to offer the eXConnect service and sell aeronautical terminals to the government market, including the Panasonic eXConnect terminal being deployed commercially today.

“This alliance will expand Boeing’s ability to offer in-flight broadband to government aircraft operators, many of whom operate Boeing aircraft, with a competitively priced service,” said Paul Geery, Vice President of C3 Solutions for Boeing Electronic & Information Solutions.
