For the first time, Ericsson and VNPT are collaborating to modernize airport connectivity in Vietnam
This marks the first time Ericsson and VNPT have collaborated in the aviation sector, leveraging advanced mobile connectivity technology to enhance flexibility and modernize airport operations nationwide.
Ericsson and VNPT have collaborated to deploy next-generation mobile infrastructure for key airport projects in Vietnam. As part of this collaboration, VNPT will deploy Ericsson's latest wireless and RAN Compute solutions to enhance connectivity in airport areas.
These solutions provide high-capacity C-band coverage, optimized for high-density indoor terminal areas, while supporting multiple bands to ensure compatibility and seamless roaming for international passengers.
Next-generation baseband devices offer powerful processing capabilities, energy efficiency, and software-driven network architecture, supporting multiple network technologies simultaneously and easily scalable as needs increase.
These technologies, when combined, will contribute to modernizing connectivity for passengers and airport operations, ensuring secure, high-capacity communication, supporting critical airport operations, enhancing passenger services, and meeting future digital needs.
Mr. Nguyen Nam Long, Deputy General Director of VNPT, said: “Airports around the world are increasingly applying advanced mobile connectivity technology to improve operational efficiency, optimize passenger experience, and ensure safe and seamless communication between airport systems and infrastructure.”
The connectivity infrastructure deployed within the framework of the airport modernization project will contribute to promoting smarter operations, from passenger handling and baggage management to asset management, thereby helping the airport operate more efficiently.”
The collaboration with VNPT marks a significant milestone in Ericsson's connectivity initiatives for businesses in Vietnam.
Rita Mokbel, President of Ericsson Vietnam, shared: “With the latest wireless and baseband technologies deployed in this project, we expect to deliver a secure and high-performance connectivity infrastructure, contributing to the modernization of airport operations, enhancing passenger experience, and supporting the airport's digital transformation.”
This collaboration further affirms Ericsson's commitment to supporting Vietnam's digital transformation journey and strengthens the company's position in providing advanced connectivity solutions for a wide range of industries and sectors.
