The official medical group of an international motorcycle competition operates on wheels, offering highly specialized diagnostic and treatment services. As the second home to many racers, they wanted a more reliable connection for their medical services and for their guests.
Challenge
With the latest medical equipment on-board their mobile clinic, they needed a device that can support heavy network loads. The connectivity setup also has to be completely portable as they travel from race location to location. Another requirement was that each truck should be able to provide Wi-Fi access to guests without compromising the security of the network.
Solution
One of Peplink’s European partners equipped each of the medical group’s trucks with a Balance 30 Pro. This router can effectively leverage any temporary wired connections made available by the circuit while providing a backup solution via cellular thanks to the integrated 4G LTE modem. To prevent the free Internet service from affecting the bandwidth needed by medical staff, Peplink’s QoS recognizes different applications, users, or data flows and prioritizes them.
The clinic also availed of the PoE Kit to support PoE output and attach a Wi-Fi Access Point for guest Wi-Fi. To prevent the free Internet service from affecting the bandwidth needed by medical staff, Peplink’s QoS recognizes different applications, users, or data flows and prioritizes them.
Result
Thanks to this Peplink solution, the medical group now has reliable connectivity for their services. With SpeedFusion’s Hot Failover technology, the mobile clinic’s network will remain connected despite a line disconnecting. Additionally, the medical group can use InControl to customize the Captive Portal or use the cloud-based Ad Delivery Service to push advertisements to racers using their services.
Deployment
- Deployed to each truck with activate PoE Kit to power Access Point
- Uses available temporary wired connectivity with Hot Failover to cellular ready
- Uses QoS to manage traffic flow and prevent overloading bandwidths
