Keeping up with rising bandwidth demands
Airports and ports are challenged to keep up with the increasing demand for network bandwidth. IoT devices, HD cameras, baggage handlers, connected cranes, and autonomous vehicles all need bandwidth, and the number and types of devices needing connectivity are still increasing. |
Best-in-class wireless networks
CTS builds and manages best‑in‑class wireless networks that keep your operations running at peak performance. We match your site’s traffic patterns with the right mix of private cellular, Wi‑Fi, and DAS, ensuring optimum application performance and good passenger user experience. Heavy or time‑critical data? We shift it to private cellular to free up Wi‑Fi and keep every connection fast, reliable, and cost‑effective. |
Ensuring uninterrupted operations
Airports and ports operations run 24x7. Network downtime and disruption can significantly impact productivity and revenue, and increase costs. Manual monitoring of network operations is prone to human error and time delays. |
Managed services with 24x7 support
CTS network monitoring ensures that processes are coordinated indoors and outdoors. CTS makes sure to maintain continuity in operations, which leads to higher productivity and growth in revenues. |
Growing data demands from digital transformation of operations
Connectivity use cases have increased significantly, ranging from high-bandwidth video-based quality inspection and security to IoT for monitoring environmental conditions. The network must cope with multiple applications' varying performance, bandwidth, and device density needs. |
Scalable connectivity with Private Cellular Networks
CTS delivers private cellular networks for airports and ports, ensuring guaranteed performance, strong security, and reliable coverage—even in crowded or mobile environments where Wi‑Fi can falter. Network slicing dedicates resources so critical applications like cargo tracking and secure communications get the speed and uptime they demand. For seamless mobility and enterprise‑grade service, private cellular sets the standard. |
Cost effective, reliable connectivity for outdoor locations
Delivering reliable outdoor connectivity at airfields and ports is tough—vast spaces, constant movement, harsh weather, and equipment interference can all disrupt coverage. Robust network design and resilient technology are essential to keep staff, systems, and IoT devices connected anywhere on the tarmac or dock. |
Private Cellular Networks deliver wireline performance with wireless flexibility
CTS private cellular networks are built to overcome the toughest outdoor connectivity challenges at airfields and ports. With robust coverage, resilient hardware, and network slicing, they keep staff, vehicles, and IoT devices connected anywhere from tarmac to dock—even in harsh weather, high‑traffic, or interference‑prone areas—delivering the seamless performance and security Wi‑Fi can’t match. |
