The number of mobile phone subscribers in the world is approaching 3 billion and with more and more people flying on commercial airlines every day, the demand for a safe and cost effective means of mobile communications in the air is increasing. Altobridge's patented technology the AM Gateway Platform™ is the bridge between mobile and satellite communication addressing the cost barriers and enabling passengers to make and receive calls and send and receive text messages on their own phones.

Aeronautical satellite links support relatively narrow bandwidth; the Altobridge certified technology presents a unique optimal signaling architecture to achieve the lowest possible operational cost for both existing and new generation satellite technologies. Subscribers simply roam onto the aeronautical network in the same way that a subscriber roams from one country to another. Calls to and from these roaming subscribers are charged to the subscriber's home account and appear on the subscriber's bill like any other roaming call.

If you represent an airline and would like to know more about this offering feel free to contact AeroMobile (AeroMobile is a Joint Venture between Telenor and Arinc).
