The evolution of aircraft cabin architectures necessitates scalable network concepts to support future high-bandwidth, low-latency applications such as active noise control, smart sensing, and real-time video streaming. This paper presents a network simulation framework using OMNeT++ and the INET library to evaluate novel cabin network architectures. By modeling dataflows, network protocols, and computing modules, the simulation enables early validation of key performance metrics, including network load, end-to-end latency, and switch utilization. An exemplary case study on video streaming demonstrates the trade-offs between centralized and decentralized architectures, highlighting critical factors for optimized resource allocation.
