> CONNECTED VEHICLES: ENSURING QUALITY AND CONTINUITY OF SERVICE

ACKSYS devices offers auto-switch & failover between WiFi and Cellular networks depending on network avaibility, ensuring a seamless data transfer.

ACKSYS guarantees a high speed continuous and seamless connectivity thanks to its secure ground access points and on-board WiFi clients (Connect Before Break technology : packet loss rate < 0.1%).

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

APPLICATION HIGHLIGHTS

 

 

SMART DEPLOYMENT

Administration and deployment                                                                                        – WaveManager : deployment & centralized management software                                 

WiFi coverage                                                                                                                      – Mesh networks and multi-radios access points : simplify the deployment of a WiFi coverage at the depot or along the track

Embedded WiFi routers
– Streams mutualization : a single embedded router, accessible to all the vehicle’s equipment (isolation/ segmentation/ prioritization of flows)
– Identical IP addressing scheme in all vehicles without interconnection risks (routing and filtering of flows)

Use case

 

 

TOWARDS CONNECTED MOBILITY

The digitalization of transport has become a real challenge for operators, unions and organizing authorities alike. The main objectives are to ensure passenger safety and comfort, and to facilitate the operation of the urban network.
In this context, the on-board network is becoming a fully-fledged vehicle function, central to its smooth operation.

Because the embedded network in each vehicle is an integral part of its IT network, IDELIS has chosen an ACKSYS AirWan solution:
• Resolutely secure (router authentication, data encryption, secure VPN tunnels, firmware integrity checks…)
• Specifically designed for urban transport (ECE R10 certification, ITxPT compliance, compactness and resistance to shock and vibration).
