A busy public transportation rail corporation based in the Asia

Pacific region wanted to provide Internet connectivity for
travelers.

Challenge

Due to the expansion of a new rail line, the public transportation

company was looking to provide Internet connectivity for
travelers taking their services. Especially since the locations can
be very rural and without wired connectivity. Thus, they were
looking for a solid solution that can implement LTE-A
connectivity due to the increased band support and carrier
aggregation. In addition, GPS fleet tracking and device
management are mandatory since there are a large number of
trains and carriages per fleet, as well as stations.

Solution

Peplink worked together with this corporation in tailoring a

solution that would work for them efficiently. Due to the scale of
the project, they had to deploy over a thousand MAX Transit
duos. And with InControl 2, Peplink’s Cloud-based management
system, remote management for the devices can be done
remotely.

Each carriage deployed a MAX Transit Duo, providing dual-band

Wi-Fi via it’s 2×2 MIMO antenna setup for passenger Wi-Fi
access. Each station also deployed a MAX Transit Duo statically,
providing CCTV return feedback to their control center. What
makes the MAX Transit Duo perfect for such deployments is the keyboard_double_arrow_up
various certifications such as Shock and vibration resistance (EN
61373:1999, IEC 61373:1999), Railway applications (EN 50155), and
Electromagnetic Compatibility (EN 61000).

Result

This solution exceeded all expectations in providing passengers

with a peak download speed of up to 170Mbps over Wi-Fi. This
also provided a stable CCTV return feedback to their control
centers. By implementing the InControl 2 API into their existing
system, features such as GPS tracking and Captive Portal
support allows for connecting to an advertising server to
enhance business requirements. Compared to other tested
devices, the performance has been unmatchable thanks to the
dual embedded LTE modems with redundant SIM slots. Because
of this, a range of carriers can be used to cover the entire
journey and spectrum.
