Why the “Right” Hybrid Connectivity Matters for Aviation
Whether you operate regional jets across Europe or long-haul flights connecting the Middle East and Asia, you understand that relying solely on satellite for your operational and passenger connectivity is risky.
Today’s aircraft are linked through multiple technologies—GEO, LEO, and increasingly, cellular networks during ground operations. The challenge for aviation is to integrate cellular seamlessly and cost-effectively to meet growing data demands on the ground and during maintenance turnaround.
In this day and age, connectivity is business critical and must be highly secure.
Ivent Mobile’s cellular component is designed specifically to complement your existing satellite links, creating a fully integrated hybrid end-to-end solution.
.
No more fragmented providers or complex configurations: we help you streamline, enhance, and future-proof your communications while retaining full control.
This empowers your teams to accelerate maintenance data offloading, optimise ground operations, and improve the overall passenger experience when on the tarmac.
The Challenge
Aviation operations rely heavily on uninterrupted data connectivity for safety, compliance, predictive maintenance, and passenger experience. GEO and LEO satellite networks provide broad coverage in-flight, but on the ground or at remote airports, satellite-only connectivity can mean higher costs, latency delays, and bandwidth restrictions.
Without integrated cellular, aircraft turnaround processes like predictive maintenance updates, EFB synchronisation, or passenger data services remain slow, impacting operational efficiency and passenger satisfaction.

The “right” solution
You need cellular connectivity optimised for aviation—seamlessly integrated with your satellite links, available wherever your fleet lands, and end-to-end secure. The cellular component must be engineered to deliver low-latency, high-bandwidth connectivity on the ground, while switching effortlessly between satellite and cellular for a unified network experience. We offer the whole range—up to 5G—depending on availability.
“Did you know that aircraft spend over 50% of their operational time within range of cellular coverage on the ground?”
Ivent Mobile specialises in just that: ensuring cost-efficient, fit-for-purpose cellular connectivity across your entire operational footprint. We achieve this by partnering with multiple local operators per airport or region, providing the best coverage and pricing per geography.
