2 EMBRAER Vision The several IFE technologies are becoming more and more complex and it was EMBRAER decision to offer the IFE system development and certification as part of the aircraft basic configuration.
3
3 Why preference for Line-Fit? Embraer believes the line-fit solution is most effective and elegant way to install IFE All processes adopted are within Embraer standards making easier the integration with suppliers and system interfaces System Installation is part of the aircraft manufacturing, schedules, testing and planning Based on experience gained with IFE systems installation, Embraer can significantly reduce the implementation time of an IFE Line-Fit program

11 Strengths of the development Dedicated Avionics data bus interface Electrical/Structural hardware are the same specified for the whole airplane Interface with systems and interior under Embraer standards All provisions certified as part of the basic aircraft certification
12
12 Comply with segregation, voltage drop, type of wiring, interface with other essential systems (electrical, avionics, AMS, etc) Thinking about space and harnesses installation
13
13 Thinking about space and harnesses installation Comply with weight and balance requirements to locate LRUs Comply with customer requirements for spacious and comfortable cabin

30 System Certification Although the majority of the IFE Systems are optional, the certification must comply with RBHA/FAA/EASA and other authorities requirements. Authorities are concerned about functionalities and integration with essential aircraft systems.
31
31 Entry in Service The airlines are getting excited with the new IFE systems and new technologies. The passengers are changing their habits giving preference to fly with the airlines that offer more options of services. Statistically, the tickets sales are increasing 10% due to the IFE systems implementation.
