Transportation & logistics

Proven solution for airports, ports and terminals of tomorrow

How will private networks and the 5G technology transform logistics and transportations?

Global transportation and logistics systems need, now more than ever, to adopt new and safe technologies such as 5G to be able to face the multiple challenges of our times.

Airports, ports and terminals have always been very complex environments. But today, transportation and logistics are under a never-seen-before pressure all over the world. And it may get worse in the future. People and goods have to keep on traveling, to make our world – and businesses – go on. Supply chains are more and more at risk as any minimal disruption and service interruption can provoke global shortages. Hacking attacks can hit any industry and paralyze any systems anytime. New and stricter security issues, with all the relative consequences are impacting the field of logistics and transportations.

Thus, it is evident that the transportation industry – from public transportation and aviation solutions to private logistic fleets – need a digital transformation. That is why this vertical has great benefits from the introduction of LTE private networks. This digital revolution for this industry provides increased visibility and control over transportation systems: the low latency, high capacity and reliability are enhancing how goods and people travel. And they are already making all those travels safer and improving the operational efficiencies in the transportation of goods and people.

The digital transformation in transportation and logistics that has been brought forth by 5G is significantly improving the industry. Among the benefits of the 5G and LTE technology applied to transportation hubs, such as airports and ports, and logistics systems, the most impactful are:

Instant and real-time communications amongst assets and agents: communications are now, more than ever, immediate and efficient. This allows for smooth operations for logistics operators and transportation hubs;
Visibility and total control over the whole supply chain, as logistics operators have complete control over the goods and products in transit;
Smooth and efficient fleet management;
Safety of communication: encryption mechanisms ensure the security and privacy of communications from any external threat;
Improved and digitalized air travel experience for passengers.

problems to solve and constrains to care

Main challenges

Legacy PMR/TETRA devices

are obsolescent and do not support video

Large indoor and outdoor areas

have to be perfectly covered and connected

Cameras or technologies that allows scanning

items have to communicate efficiently their data to the security center and to the security staff

An unprecedented volume of machines, IoT sensors and data

have to be connected and cross-checked

Improving safety is based on 24/7 communications

and automatization enablement

Enabling higher productivity, improved situational awareness and safety

don’t have to cause money loss.

our solution

how we solve them

We deploy private LTE/5G solutions which meet airports, ports and terminals’ broadband communications, full mobility, reliability, scalability and security requirements. They also give the local control and visibility of the data network such as user-defined IP addressing, network segmentation and access that is difficult to provide from a macro network.
