TCI Aircraft Interiors has selected the TTG VELOX 5G Lab Kit to develop and test next-generation in-flight content management applications in a controlled Standalone 5G Private Mobile Network environment.
The project brings Private 5G technology into an aviation R&D and testing environment, enabling TCI Aircraft Interiors engineers to explore how high-speed, low-latency and secure local connectivity can support the next generation of digital in-flight services.
Developed by TTG, VELOX 5G MPN provides an end-to-end Standalone (SA) 5G Private Mobile Network infrastructure designed for organizations that need a flexible and controlled environment for developing, integrating and validating 5G-enabled applications.
From the Lab to the Sky: Testing In-Flight Digital Services over Private 5G
TCI Aircraft Interiors plans to use the VELOX 5G Lab Kit to develop and validate different in-flight content management scenarios before applications are introduced into operational aircraft environments.
The planned use cases include:
- Management and delivery of video, audio and digital entertainment content
- Digital magazines, e-books and interactive applications
- Content personalization based on passenger profiles and flight information
- Centralized planning and distribution of digital advertising
- Fast and secure content updates
- Performance testing of in-flight digital services
- Content usage and service analytics
- Evaluation of next-generation 5G-based wireless in-flight applications
By providing a dedicated laboratory environment, VELOX enables engineers to build repeatable test scenarios and evaluate application behavior, connectivity and performance under controlled network conditions.
This approach can help engineering teams identify integration and performance requirements earlier in the development lifecycle, before applications are transferred to operational environments.
Private 5G Meets Aviation Innovation
TCI Aircraft Interiors develops aircraft seats, cabin interior systems, in-flight entertainment technologies and connectivity solutions for the aviation industry.
Its wireless in-flight entertainment capabilities support a broad range of digital passenger services, including video and audio content, interactive games, digital magazines, e-books, flight information, surveys and advertising.
Combining these capabilities with a dedicated Private 5G test environment creates new opportunities to investigate how next-generation wireless infrastructure can support increasingly connected and software-driven aircraft cabin experiences.
Why Private 5G for Aviation R&D?
As aircraft cabins become increasingly digital, engineering teams need environments where new services can be developed and tested without depending on public mobile infrastructure.
A Standalone Private 5G network provides organizations with greater control over network configuration, connectivity, security and testing conditions.
With the TTG VELOX 5G Lab Kit, TCI Aircraft Interiors engineers can evaluate in-flight digital applications in an isolated and repeatable environment while exploring the capabilities of 5G for future aviation use cases.
The project represents a practical step toward understanding how Private 5G, wireless connectivity and digital content technologies can contribute to the evolution of the connected aircraft cabin.
The Digital Experience in the Sky Is Evolving with 5G
By bringing together TTG’s telecommunications and Private 5G expertise with TCI Aircraft Interiors’ aviation and aircraft cabin technology experience, the initiative creates a development environment for exploring more connected, responsive and personalized passenger experiences.
For TTG, the project also demonstrates how VELOX can extend Private 5G beyond traditional telecommunications environments and provide a practical platform for enterprise and industry-specific R&D, testing and application development.
