Stable connection at high speeds
How can you ensure stable connections across vehicle fleets to optimize processes? That’s the question our client approached us with. The goal was to meet future automotive requirements by using LTE-based connectivity hardware, which can be deployed across various vehicle fleets. The world’s first 100-megabit Wi-Fi solution for the automotive sector ensures stable connections at high speeds.
Challenge
The client needed LTE-based connectivity hardware that could be deployed across various vehicle fleets and ensured stable connections.
Consulting approach
valantic specified the hardware and CAPWAP implementation, selected international suppliers, led the hardware development, and optimized the MIMO antennas for European LTE frequency bands.
Client benefits and solution
The result: The world’s first 100-megabit Wi-Fi solution for the automotive sector, ensuring a stable connection even at high speeds.
The Challenge in Detail:
The client needed LTE-based connectivity hardware (HW) that could be used across fleets and met the current automotive requirements. The hardware was supposed to function as an “over-the-air” (OTA) managed access point and provide stable device connections through mobile Wi-Fi connectivity.
