2 EQUIPMENT/SYSTEM DESCRIPTION
2.1 IFE Environment
The eX3 System is an electronic control data and audio/video distribution system providing digital video and
audio on demand to the passenger seat. The system architecture is modular in design, allowing for additional
components to be integrated without aircraft-side wiring changes. eX3 System employs MPEG encoding
techniques for audio/video data compression providing high-resolution digital video and quality audio to the
seats without using excessive system bandwidth. eX3 system also provides broadband Ethernet network
connectivity between the passenger-computing device at the seat and the head-end network equipment. The
system is used for internet data application and streaming digital audio/video content distribution.
2.2 4G Cell Modem
The 4G CM is a component of the X series In-Flight Entertainment (IFE) and Global Communication Services
Systems. It is designed to provide a communication link between aircraft and Panasonic media control center
while the aircraft is on the ground. The 4G Cell Modem (CM) cellular connectivity enables a cellular wireless
IP network connection between an equipped aircraft and the Panasonic Ground Network.
The 4G CM is show in Figure 1:
