At Azimut we know that for good connectivity, Wi-Fi on board is essential. It is as necessary as it is in hotels. Who can imagine going to a hotel and not having Wi-Fi and internet access? Well, the same thing is happening on buses, trains or other means of transportation with wireless technology.
Online streaming entertainment makes the journey more enjoyable and also allows us to avoid interruptions, due to coverage shadows that we may have along the journey.
The networks are what they are, 4g, 3g, there is talk of 5g but at the moment the signal is what it is, and it is not the same throughout the entire territory and therefore the route of the vehicle, hence the need to Optimize that the Wi-Fi is of quality and high speed, of course we will never have more than what the network can give us.
But we can distribute this signal among users so that they have optimal flow to be able to navigate and do everything that is needed.
For this, there are flow control tools, how many megabytes we want to give to each user and for how long, we can filter the connection speed to distribute among the others, duplicate sims, make it so that when one runs out it jumps to the other "fail over" , we can make two work at the same time “load balancing” and all this is controlled by a software platform that will manage internal communications and the server's internal multi-SIM router.
What is a captive portal? And what is it for?
It is the way we have to put a door into the system to achieve a return on investment with actions such as: having advertising before entering and identifying the person who is entering by accepting certain conditions.
In this way we can have a user registry, know which mac is inside and what actions it performs, and thus filter inappropriate content.
Data storage is very important for legal reasons. In many countries, due to the attacks that occurred in Europe, it has been decided that it is necessary not only to identify the Macs or IPs that connect to a high-speed Wi-Fi service router, but that in some cases this data must be stored for up to 5 years. . This is in case you have to consult at some point who has been in the vehicle and when in order to trace the history of its activity.
This is enabled by the Azimut Control management software.
Knowing how many devices are connected, what they have done and, above all, what they have consumed is essential to ensuring that the SIMs do not run out and that everyone can enjoy the WIFI on board.
Monitoring and reporting are also a part of software management.
The operator needs these tools to control costs and passenger satisfaction.
After being able to manage all the internal Wi-Fi connectivities, we are left with the ability to access the quality content found on the on-board server.
This server offers us two things, a captive entry portal and then two accesses, one to its contents and another to the Internet, in addition to software for Wi-Fi management and another for content management .
