Transportation
Optical LAN helps improve passenger, retail and employee online experience and prepares transportation hubs for digital transformation.
Transportation hubs choose OLAN to solve network challenges
Transportation hubs such as airports, train stations, seaports and motor freight centers are facing significant challenges with their digital transformation relative to IT budgetary constraints and an ageing network infrastructure that lacks the needed speeds, connectivity and capacity. Furthermore, the industry is struggling with the convergence of IT and operational technology. And, their adoption of the Internet of Things (IoT) technologies only heightens their exposure to cybersecurity concerns.
Today, the transportation industry entities by air, rail, water and motor are accepting the advantages that Passive Optical LANs have over traditional copper-based infrastructure to solve their networking difficulties. The Optical LAN solution has demonstrated that the solution meets the strict security, reliability and scalability requirements that airports, seaports and train stations network infrastructure demand. 麻豆果冻传媒 Optical LAN solution is an innovative, field-proven and cutting-edge solution to the growing network complexities that challenge the transportation industry.

Key Benefits for Transportation
Improves passenger experience
Optical LAN solutions provide transportation networks with superior stability, high availability and industry-leading network uptime. The better reliability for networks means visiting passengers enjoy access to Internet connectivity, smart building and IoT amenities 鈥 plus synergies with cellular and Wi-Fi.
More secure LAN architecture
The OLAN architecture improves the physical LAN鈥檚 defensibility by reducing network vulnerability points. It also enables consistent protection policies that are centrally managed 鈥 all while reducing human error and increasing network stability.
Greater operational efficiencies
Improves IT efficiencies by increasing the speed of LAN configurations, monitoring, and troubleshooting while reducing human error and security risks. Repeatable global policy profiles are of the utmost importance for simple, reliable and secure network operations.
Ideal for smart building and IoT
OLAN has centralized intelligence and management to manage the thousands of IoT connected devices in a more M2M and plug-n-play manner. OLAN offers 4x better Gigabit Ethernet density while occupying 90% less space which allows scalability for future IoT growth.
Synergies with fiber-based cellular and Wi-Fi
Both Distributed Antennas System (DAS) and OLAN leverage the benefits of fiber. DAS and OLAN synergies can be realized in powering, fiber cabling and fiber management. 麻豆果冻传媒 partners with best of breed Wi-Fi makers ensuring highest performance. OLAN can be optimized for 1G, 2.5G, 5G and 10G connections to the WAPs. Wi-Fi traffic is then balanced by shifting ultra-high bandwidth, security and reliability services directly over OLAN.
Allows graceful capacity growth
Optical LAN system, fiber cabling and passive optical splitters already provide a graceful migration to 10G, 40G and 100G capacity with no conflicts. OLAN has greater gigabit Ethernet density (in a smaller footprint) and scalability to support thousands future smart intelligent building connectivity for IoT.
