- Line fit and Retrofit compatible
Elevating In-Flight Connectivity
High bandwidth and low congestion
Exail’s Wizy-Wap brand new Wireless Access Point is based on the latest Wi-Fi 6E standard and crafted with 4 spatial streams. The pair of technologies provide the highest level of performance and enables a new frequency band at 6 GHz, delivering up to 1,200 MHz of additional spectrum with wider channels.
The 4 spatial streams provide a powerful connectivity to on-board Wi-Fi and allow passengers to stay connected through their own device to their work, friends and family while on the move.
Whether they are watching a movie, playing a video game or online shopping at the same time, passengers will not experience connection slowdown. Wizy-Wap contributes to the passenger’s unique experience throughout the flight.
Stable and highly reliable connection
The latest WIFI 6e technology enhances in-flight connectivity experience for passengers, offering stable and highly reliable internet access, especially in high-density environments where multiple devices are used simultaneously.
Uninterrupted connection throughout the cabin
Wizy-Wap continuously assesses the connection quality between the passenger's device and the available access points throughout the aircraft. If a better access point is identified, the system can automatically and seamlessly transition the device to the stronger available signal.
This feature actively guides devices to connect to the most suitable access point, considering factors such as signal strength, load, and available bandwidth.
This contributes to an improved in-flight connectivity experience, allowing passengers and cabin crew to stay connected without disruptions or slowdowns.
WIZY-WAP embeds WI-FI features with the capability of smart traffic steering and better load balancing. Such as built-in technology, that resolves “sticky clients” issues, automated Wi-Fi radio frequency management and dynamic radio resources allocation and adjustment.
Enhanced on-board experience
Efficient cabin crew management
Cabin crew management involves various operational tasks. Aircraft wireless access points are essential by providing a reliable and efficient way to access real-time updates and relevant data for informed decision-making.
Wizy-Wap ensures cabin crew members are always up-to-date and can adjust their service accordingly, providing the best possible passenger experience. Exail WAP solution also contributes to a quicker and more effective communication, especially in wide-body aircraft where crew members may be spread out accross different sections of the cabin.
Improved passenger satisfaction
In-flight Wi-Fi has become a standard feature in modern aircraft and providing passengers with a seamless connectivity experience during their journey is now key. To remain competitive, airlines must now provide an unrivaled in-flight connection experience.
With the Wizy-Wap access point, passengers are not only able to browse the web, check emails, and stay connected to social media platforms throughout whole the flight. They are also able to engage in activities that demand a strong and reliable internet connection such as media streaming.
Time and cost-effective advantages
Easy to install and operate
Wizy-Wap onboard wireless access point system stands out for its time and cost-effectiveness, offering a hassle-free and efficient solution. Plug-and-play, it can easily be installed on retrofit or linefit aircraft with no modification to the airplane infrastructure. This not only saves valuable time but also reduces associated costs.
A scalable solution
Wizy-Wap is scalable, accommodating a range of aircraft types from single VIP jets to large commercial fleets. This scalability ensures flexibility in implementation, making it adaptable to the diverse airlines needs for different aircraft sizes and types.
