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.

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.”
