Cellular Networking Solutions for Airports
Meeting The Advanced Connectivity Needs of Air Travel HubsToday’s airports are embracing new cellular connectivity solutions to improve the intelligence of their operations. Becoming better connected improves their efficiency, allows them to offer a safer, more streamlined travel experience and helps to reduce costs. All of these factors serve to increase loyalty among their customers.
In their drive to become more efficient, airports will need to adopt the latest technology, while phasing out the old. Secure, seamless and high-performing, cellular technology enables a host of innovations that create a smarter airport.
Redundant Security Communications
Business Continuity Solutions for Airports
Heavy security is critical to the safety of all passengers and employees within Airports. Any systems (video cameras, access controls, motion detectors, etc.) relying solely upon wired connections are vulnerable to connectivity failures - especially within high-density video applications.
USAT can provide the hardware necessary to utilize your primary T1 connections and automatically failover to cellular when those connections go down, or speeds fall below acceptable levels. And our partners at MCA can provide the surveillance (video) and detection (intrusion and weapon) equipment to meet your advanced security needs.
Equipment Health Connectivity
Real-Time Airport Equipment Monitoring
Airports operate hundreds expensive security devices and semi-autonomous pieces of machinery, to make sure all your equipment is calibrated correctly and running optimally. Using a discreet Out-of-Band (OOB) networking solution from USAT can ensure those components are remotely monitored by your team to prevent issues before they arise.
Airport Point-of-Sale Systems
Separate and Secure Networks for EPOS Applications
Many businesses operate within the airport. They should be operating in their own network swim lane diverged from the Airport’s network. Cellular networking solutions whether they be utilized for primary or failover connectivity for electronic point-of-sale systems used by Airlines, retail stores, food vendors, or self-service kiosks, are well suited for airport environments.
Airport Digital Signage
Remotely Managing Various Types of Digital Displays
To avoid expensive wired lines and save on display relocation costs, most Airport managers prefer their digital signs and displays operate wirelessly. With the right cellular hardware and cloud software, these airport staff can remotely manage their digital signage including things like digital billboards, rotating displays, counter menus, ordering kiosks, travel itineraries, and more from a single pane of glass.
And with emergency alerting solutions from our partners at MCA, these same signs and displays can be incorporated into mass notification systems - letting staff and passengers know of potential threats to their well-being - whether natural or manmade.
Intelligent Car Parks
5G Connectivity for Airport Parking Garages
Airport IT managers need solutions that enable them to remotely connect with and to wireless video cameras, wireless POS systems, automated lift gate controls, embedded parking sensors, and more to build the most efficient systems for managing intelligent parking structures.
With increasing frequency, Airport IT teams are in search of ways to automate gate controls, expedite payment transactions, improve visitor experiences, and enhance on-site safety. Today, with robust 5G router and antenna kits from USAT, they are finding ways to do all of that and so much more.
