Question for T7 Drivers

Since I have no operating knowledge of the bird, is it, or is it not, possible to disengage SATCOM from the flight deck?

Assuming a hostage/hijack scenario, I'm wondering if it was not possible to shut down the SATCOM, if it was overlooked, or perhaps left on deliberately by the crew.

All conjecture I know, but still an interesting line of thought.
