Why settle for yesterday’s technology to meet today’s challenges?

AFIRS Edge is an all-in-one solution WQAR + AID + AI Data Harvester

You’ve moved on from 4G/LTE for your mobile phone, so why settle for it on a $100 million airplane?

5G Technology is just the beginning.

5G cellular technology in AFIRS Edge™️ provides a Wireless QAR solution with an operational life far beyond 4G WQAR and AID products.

As the industry’s first 5G WQAR / AID it is ideal for upgrading obsolete QARs and enabling connectivity in the flight deck.

To realize your AI dreams, AFIRS Edge is cloud native and goes a step further by enabling your fleet with Edge computing, application & ML model hosting, and an Internet of Things (IoT) wireless sensor data gateway on to your aircraft.

Why airlines invest in AFIRS Edge:

Eliminate Inefficient Data Transfer:

Is your airline replacing outdated “Sneakernet” methods with seamless, automated data connectivity to enhance operational efficiency and data reliability?

Enhance EFB Applications:

Are you deploying robust and secure connectivity to support Electronic Flight Bag (EFB) applications, ensuring pilots have real-time access to critical information?

3G & 4G Sunset Concerns:

Has your airline felt the impact of the 3G sunset, and are you now cautious about similar issues with 4G, seeking future-proof solutions that offer smooth upgrades and reliable connectivity?

ACARS Cost Concerns:

Does your airline wish to mitigate high costs and the recent interference issues associated with ACARS systems while maintaining reliable communication channels?

Streamlining ACMS Analytics:

Is your airline implementing custom ACMS analytics and could benefit from user-friendly tools to simplify data collection and analysis processes?

Digital Transformation and Data Sovereignty:

Would your airline benefit from supercharging its digital transformation initiatives with untapped aircraft data by using on-wing 5G data harvesting capabilities, all while owning your data in support of your AI needs?

If any of the questions above resonate, drop us a note.
