Satcom Direct expands cabin entertainment offerings with SD Live

Satcom Direct has launched SD Live, a new platform for streaming live television in flight worldwide. With SD Live, passengers now can stream live television via their own personal electronic devices or the cabin entertainment system without adding additional hardware, STCs or antennas.

Using the highest speed broadband and ATG services available for business aviation, SD Live delivers both standard- and high-definition real-time television programming to passengers. News, financial programs and various live sporting events are available 24/7, wherever the aircraft is flying. 

Multiple devices may be used simultaneously to stream live TV, and no equipment installation is required. SD Live operates on the ground and in the air for those with broadband network coverage. A mobile app is available for the iOS operating system.

“We are committed to providing our customers with leading technologies to enhance their inflight experience. SD Live harnesses the latest network capabilities and SD technology, allowing passengers to stay connected, informed and entertained, no matter where they are,” said Jim Jensen, SD founder and CEO.

SD Live will be demonstrated on Satcom Direct booth 2626 at NBAA 2016.
