As more and more people choose to travel by public transport, onboard connectivity is becoming an increasingly significant factor. Connectivity is already providing value-added services for passengers like onboard media services, such as streaming and real-time journey information.

The available Wi-Fi network also benefits operations and maintenance. By providing real-time access to databases, businesses can provide better customer service and enable the uploading of data that may be used, for example, for predictive maintenance.

A majority of public Wi-Fi solutions today are not designed for high-density applications with multiple users or for other wireless networks in close proximity, such as train-to-ground networks (LTE, WLAN). High-density Wi-Fi solutions from Westermo address these problems.
