Driving Digital Transformation at North American Ports with Wireless LTE Networks

During the implementation of a digitalization project at a North American port, the wireless LTE network covered the entire port operation, enabling remote automatic control of mechanical equipment and unmanned on-site management. This deployment will help promote the digital transformation of ports.

Solution

Technology Deployed：

- Dedicated frequency band guarantee: Deploy dedicated network frequency bands to avoid interference from the public network.

- Private LTE Network: The wireless network is designed specially for the North American port.

Key Features:

- High Performance： Data is collected and uploaded to the IoT platform via 5G/4G routers, enabling online management and real-time monitoring of the port. The monitoring operations center can view the port's operational status in real time.

- Environmental Adaptability: Ruggedized designs capable of withstanding extreme temperatures from -40°C to +70°C.It can adapt to harsh outdoor environments.

Ease of Maintenance: Simplified maintenance process reduces labor needs and operational overhead.

Benefit:

- Low maintenance cost: the machine is made of high-quality materials and adapts to the environment, so it is not easy to break down

- Wide coverage: Global 5G/4G support ensures seamless communication across different regions.

By integrating Smawave industrial-grade terminals with private base stations, remote automatic control of machinery and unmanned on-site management are realized. This project marks a breakthrough in the digital operation of ports, and its successful experience has begun to be replicated and promoted to many ports around the world.
