Keeping Millions of Passengers Moving Requires Robust Networks
In the United States, an average day of air travel sees approximately 45,000 flights take to the skies, with 2.9million passengers traveling across 29million square miles of airspace. And every single one of these nearly 3 million daily passengers needs to pass through an airport terminal to board and disembark their flight.
Getting those passengers safely to and from their destinations – while also managing airport logistics, air traffic, security, ticketing, and customer service – requires an immense amount of data traveling as fast as possible across various networks.
Creating Innovative Networks While Reducing Operating Costs
As technology continues to advance, airlines and airports are making strategic decisions to reduce their operating costs while providing the safest and most efficient experience possible.
With Nokia Converged IP/MPLS for Aviation, new applications and services can be introduced to your existing infrastructure while maintaining – or even lowering – operating costs.
Streamlined and Efficient Networks for Optimal Operations
As the aviation industry migrates away from older technologies, it’s essential to be able to simplify and improve operations without endangering critical components and capabilities. An IP/MPLS core and packet-based network ensure that all operations are uninterrupted during migration and beyond, while improving performance and reducing costs.
Single, High-Capacity Networks
With a single, high-capacity network, operations can be simplified by running air traffic management, radars, CCTV , aeronautical business applications, and IT systems on the same IP network. This will effectively minimize network repair downtime and costs by having only one network to manage and maintain.
Multiple High-Bandwidth Services
You can also improve safety everywhere by deploying a high-definition video protection system that includes video analytics. Facility-wide security, both inside the terminal and on the taxiway, can be improved by extending interoperability across systems for emergency contact points, security checkpoints, and mobile radio and alarms.
Additionally, by transmitting and analyzing large amounts of data — for example, data generated by CCTV feeds — in real-time situational awareness can be drastically improved.
Build Upon and Expand Existing Infrastructure
Rather than being required to completely remove and replace legacy networks and applications, Nokia Converged IP/MPLS allows you to expand your existing network while also…
- Transporting legacy protocols transparently
- Using physical synchronization to achieve quality similar to synchronous digital hierarchy (SDH)
- Engineering and segregating traffic
- Recovering from failures fast
