About
Discover how Viasat’s ATS B2 satcom datalink (Iris) is transforming global aviation by increasing datalink capacity and coverage for seamless digital air traffic management.

Join us for an in-depth look at this dual link data communication solution (SATCOM & VDL), in operational across Europe for over a year, and learn how it supports trajectory-based operations (TBO) and the growing demands of two-way data exchange, including AOC communications and connected EFB.

From highly digitalised modern aircraft to emerging users like drones and air taxis, Viasat’s secure, high-capacity satellite technology is paving the way for scalable, data-driven air traffic solutions.

In this session, you’ll learn:
• The latest updates and performance insights from ATS B2 satcom deployments in Europe
• How Iris integrates with VDL2 to deliver a robust dual link communication framework
• The role of satellite connectivity in enabling Extended Projected Profile (EPP) sharing via ADS-C
• How satcom datalink supports the increasing complexity and volume of global air traffic

Whether you're planning for future airspace needs or optimizing current operations, this webinar will equip you with the knowledge to stay ahead.
