Solutions — Smart Retail
Retail is a numbers game: dozens or thousands of small sites, each one needing a link that nobody visits. Whether it is a vending machine that must report stock and take payments, a dining room that needs to seat guests with working Wi-Fi, or a truck whose position has to reach dispatch — the requirement is the same: cheap per site, reliable, and visible from a dashboard.
At a thousand sites, a small saving per unit is a large number. So is a single unnecessary truck roll.
Unattended machines lose revenue and trust when the link fails mid-transaction. Fast recovery matters more than headline speed.
Full dining rooms and busy shops mean many clients per AP. Client capacity and roaming matter more than raw throughput.
Fleet links have to re-establish after dead zones and keep position reporting flowing, without the driver doing anything.
For vending, kiosks and in-vehicle use: 4G or 5G uplink, serial where the controller needs it, GNSS on the variants that report position, and remote management so operations can see every unit.
For dining rooms, shops and warehouses where many clients share a few APs and need to roam between them.
Separates guest, POS and back-office traffic in a single site, and gives a managed handoff to the broadband or cellular uplink. Rack-mount and higher-port options are in the gateway category.
Unattended machines moved from coin-only to connected payment and stock reporting. Retrofitting a link turns each machine into a managed endpoint with sales and inventory data.
Used: a 4G router carrying the machine's connection and data, alongside the operator's own application board — remote management, real-time stock and sales.
Guests expect Wi-Fi that simply works when the room is full. Coverage planning and client capacity, not headline speed, decide whether it does.
Used: controller plus dual-band access points — high client count, high throughput, stable roaming between APs.
Freight operators need vehicle position and on-board data at dispatch, continuously, with the driver doing nothing.
Used: a vehicle cellular gateway with positioning — 4G/5G connection, GNSS reporting, on-board data collection and remote management.
