Customer Background
Customer, a leading bus service provider, sought to enhance the passenger experience and improve fleet management by providing reliable internet connectivity on its buses. To address this need, Customer partnered with Signellent to implement a comprehensive Wi-Fi solution that not only offers passengers seamless internet access but also provides Customer with crucial remote monitoring capabilities, ensuring operational efficiency and passenger safety.
The Challenge
In the competitive bus travel industry, customer satisfaction is paramount. Customer recognized a key opportunity to differentiate its service by offering in-bus Wi-Fi. However, providing a consistently reliable internet connection on a moving vehicle is challenging due to network fluctuations and signal loss. Additionally, Customer needed a way to remotely monitor its fleet to ensure safety and performance.
The Solution
Signellent deployed a cutting-edge Wi-Fi solution tailored for Customer’s fleet. The core of this solution is a dual-internet system that utilizes two different SIM cards from separate cellular networks. This intelligent redundancy ensures a highly stable and reliable connection, providing an impressive 99% internet uptime for passengers.
In addition to providing Wi-Fi, the Signellent solution also enabled a robust remote monitoring system. The buses were equipped to transmit real-time data on various parameters, including:
- Bus Activity: The system provided real-time data on the speed of the bus and its current location.
- Operational Metrics: Key safety and performance data, such as tire pressure, could be monitored remotely.
The Results
