Wi-Fi in vehicles
Challenge
Wi-Fi has become quite important for many fleet vehicle scenarios — especially for riders on public transit and school buses, and for any agencies and companies that ask staff members to work extensively from their vehicles. But with limited space, Wi-Fi, cellular, and security services have to be supported by one router.
Solution
Use an Ericsson solution — including vehicle routers with security features such as zero trust networking, content filtering, and an application-aware firewall — to provide Wi-Fi for passengers (customer experience) and/or the driver (access to internal organizational data).
Key factors when choosing a cellular solution for Wi-Fi in vehicles
High performance with built-in 5G and Wi-Fi 6
Leave slow connections in the rearview mirror and accelerate into the future of in-vehicle Wi-Fi. Ericsson Cradlepoint routers have built-in 5G, LTE, and Wi-Fi 6, ensuring seamless streaming and rapid file downloads while on the move. Passengers can scroll social media, work remotely, or enjoy entertainment, while those working from vehicles can access crucial data and applications without lag.
Monitor and manage connections from anywhere
Ericsson NetCloud Manager grants real-time insights into connected devices, data usage, and security events. Remotely configure settings, troubleshoot issues, and manage policies. Ample dashboards packed with in-depth analytics and insights keep you in the driver’s seat, wherever the road may lead.
Advanced content filtering for better network security
Create a safe and productive environment for your in-vehicle Wi-Fi with content filtering. Define access based on user groups, prioritizing business-critical applications for seamless productivity, while inappropriate or distracting websites are kept safely out of reach. Rest assured, everyone onboard is protected from online threats, malicious websites, and malware.
