How LTE can deliver In-Flight Broadband
Today, we have come to expect wireless connectivity almost everywhere, with widely-available 3G and 4G networks enabling consumers to stay online at all times, taking advantage of fast connections and low costs. Statistica report that in 2016 the average mobile data usage per subscriber in the United States was roughly 3900 Megabytes per month.
The one major exception is the...
Ahmad Bahai,Chief Technology Officer, discusses isolation in a world of collaboration
In a world where humans and machines continually interact, isolation matters. Miles of wiring in an electric car connect switches, sensors and high-voltage motors. An industrial controller exchanges data, commands and power with sensors on a factory floor. A high-voltage medical device monitors patients in clinics or extended-care facilities. A USB interface connects industrial machines to microcontrollers. A high-voltage...
