Wireless Broadband Solutions for Transportation

Is your business aviation? Is it a port or other maritime business? Are you a pipeline operator? A railroad company? Whatever mode of the transportation industry you're in, your economic and enterprise environments are rapidly evolving and you're trying to cope with a number of major, business-altering issues: increased competition, tougher customers, more stringent regulations, and of course, rising costs across the board. The Motorola portfolio of end-to-end wireless broadband solutions enables virtually every transportation environment to capture, move and manage IP-based voice, video and data in real time.

End-to-End Wireless Broadband Ecosystem

Motorola provides a comprehensive high-speed ecosystem that delivers the secure, pervasive coverage and mobility that enable information to flow seamlessly inside and out. Whether inside a terminal, office or warehouse, or outside in the yard or dock and throughout the supply chain, the MOTOwi4 portfolio empowers you to boost productivity and lower costs while leveraging advanced technologies. These include intelligent transportation systems (ITS), indoor and outdoor video surveillance, automated building management HVAC controls and Supervisory Control and Data Acquisition (SCADA) systems for remote capture and control of crucial data.

To Move People, Product and Cargo Better, You've Got to Move Information Better

In transportation, only Motorola knows wireless inside and out. With the wireless network portfolio of end-to end solutions, Motorola helps travel and transportation businesses maximize information visibility and access, improve operational efficiency and customer satisfaction, comply with stringent regulations, control costs, increase productivity and tighten security.

Transportation is one of the world's most competitive industries. Whether you're an airline, port, railroad, pipeline operator or other travel or transportation business, you're searching for ways to bypass your competition by streamlining operations, increasing worker and equipment productivity, improving internal and external communications and lowering operating costs while adding new revenue opportunities. That's where the exceptional information movement and management capabilities of wireless broadband - and wireless network solutions—excel… adding value and positively impacting the bottom line.

Wireless Network Indoor solutions:

Enterprise WLAN is a complete portfolio of wireless switches, access points and bridges, combined with comprehensive network management and intrusion protection security solutions. WLAN enterprise-class infrastructure is optimized to make mobile workers more connected and more productive.

Fixed solutions:
Point-to-Point (PTP) solutions provide cost effective connectivity between remote sites, transmitting data with maximum reliability even in Non-Line-Of-Sight environments and other difficult conditions such as areas with high levels of interference, rough terrain or even bodies of water.

Point-to-Multipoint (PMP) solutions - in licensed or unlicensed frequencies - create scalable and highly cost-effective connectivity between multiple facilities and previously unreachable locations, enabling ubiquitous information access and the creation of highly efficient paperless work flow systems.

Mesh Wide Area Networks (MWAN) provide scalable wireless broadband solutions with the capability of enabling any combination of fixed, portable, nomadic and mobile IP coverage. MWAN technology powers a self-forming, self healing wireless broadband network that can be quickly and easily deployed in a wide range of transportation environments. In addition, built-in position-location features allow the system to go where GPS cannot.

Motorola Wireless Network Solution Benefits Help Transportation Enterprises Optimize Operations Performance and Productivity
