Travelling Gateway
A travelling gateway is a mobile communication hub that collects data from nearby IoT devices, such as asset trackers or beacons, while on the move. It transmits this information to a central platform. Unlike a fixed base station, a travelling gateway operates in transit, enabling real-time data capture in areas where permanent infrastructure is limited or unavailable.
In supply chain operations, travelling gateways extend connectivity to remote or moving assets, ensuring continuous tracking, status updates and operational insights. This helps bridge coverage gaps, improves asset visibility and supports more accurate supply chain decision-making.
Connected Load Carrier integrates travelling gateways into its IoT-as-a-Service offering to provide seamless, on-the-move asset connectivity. Therefore ensuring uninterrupted data flow and real-time insights across even the most dynamic supply chains.
