Dassault designs, manufactures, and supports more than 2,000 Falcons in service of which more than 500 are harnessing the power of AVANCE L5 which provides an easy upgrade path to new technologies like Gogo 5G.

"Gogo 5G was designed with our customers in mind to deliver high throughput with low latency, addressing the increased demand for data-heavy services and applications," said Dave Salvador, Gogo's vice president of aftermarket sales. "Dassault's investment in Gogo 5G provisions and STC development is a critical component in bringing this game-changing network technology to the market."

The system will operate on the Gogo Biz 4G network until the AVANCE LX5 single box LRU – fully integrated with Gogo 5G connectivity – is available for installation in mid-year 2024.

Dassault will secure full Gogo 5G and AVANCE LX5 Supplemental Type Certifications (STCs) once the 5G service is available.
