SITA leverages Cradlepoint

Integration unlocks the power of LTE and 5G networks with existing SITA platforms.

SITA will be leveraging Cradlepoint, part of Ericsson, technology as part of its transformative cloud-based secure mobile to Wi-Fi solutions.

SITA Mobile to Wi-Fi includes Cradlepoint routers and NetCloud Manager, a cloud-based network management platform, that will ensure best-in-class customer service and network performance through a fully managed service. SITA Mobile to Wi-Fi provides everything from initial ordering through delivery, implementation, support and on-going maintenance.

Martin Smillie, SITA SVP for Communications and Data Exchange (CDE) said: “This collaboration brings together two industry leaders and provides compelling cloud-based mobile to Wi-Fi communications technology for our airport customers. By combining our SITA suite of innovative solutions with Cradlepoint Wireless WAN solutions we are delivering the next generation of agile products for secure, reliable, and sustainable enhancements for our airport, airline, and ground-handling customers in all areas of the airport and remote from airport infrastructure also.”

Some of the uses for this new solution will include: off-airport passenger processing operations, SDWAN backup for remote sites, quick access for new airline routes, pilot/crew access in cockpit and aircraft data connectivity.

James Bristow, SVP EMEA at Cradlepoint said: “For 75 years SITA has delivered state-of-the-art answers for communications and data exchange to the aviation industry, and other areas of transportation. Cradlepoint is proud to be a part of the next phases of innovation for airport operating systems. Our best-in-class 5G and LTE routers, along with network management, will add totally secure, reliable and agile connectivity, together with the capacity for future innovation to drive continuous improvements across functions on the airport real estate.”
