Airports are no less than miniature cities with shopping malls, restaurants, and hotels, with various stakeholders – Retail, Airline services, restaurants, immigration, government agencies, and other service providers. Just like cities, they also require secure Internet access to improve efficiency. A safe and IoT-enabled Wi-Fi network is crucial for Airport’s smooth functioning. It helps create a communication channel between airport vendors and corporate networks and connects their on-ground staff, vendors, and support partners.


Challenges

  • Bandwidth hassles amid high-density public access with private / enterprise communications
  • Integration of industrial IoT services such as luggage management, immigration
  • Airports house many retail stores and restaurants, which have a dense user population
  • High mobility

Requirement

  • A secure network architecture that offers a robust, low- latency, scalable, flexible, and ultra-secure wireless experience for both Public and Private Access
  • The network solution helps manage a range of environments, as the condition can swiftly oscillate between mild to extreme
  • A network having capacity to handle thousands of concurrently connected devices and varying bandwidth-requiring apps

Simple & Easy-to deploy IO Architecture

IO, wireless Access Solution, is very flexible. It can be deployed as a single or converged network infrastructure supporting end-user and operational needs, including building and energy management, asset tracking and physical security.

  • We provide a comprehensive product suite; Wi-Fi 5 802.11 ac and Wi-Fi 6 802.11ax Access Points
  • We are disseminating bandwidth for up to 1024 concurrent clients per access point.
  • Extensive coverage with dual-band radios with integrated Omni-directional antennas ensures no dead zones in the airport.
  • Self-Healing and Self Optimizing Easy Mesh ensures optimal network uptime.
  • Highly intuitive cloud management ensures wireless network remain fully operable while enabling IT administrators to control configurations to optimize network performance.
  • Fast and secure roaming allows client devices to roam seamlessly from one AP to another without any loss of experience.
  • TWT feature helps save the battery life of smartphones, IoT, and other devices.
  • Quality of Service ensures that the most critical and highly time-sensitive apps get priority to perform well, and yet other applications receive fair treatment.
  • Highly secure wireless networking, which encompasses authentication, encryption, and network reliability with the industry's most secured WPA3 authentication.

IO by HFCL efficiently supports airport network requirements while generating additional revenue for the airport.
