The Vodafone Smart Hub turns a vehicle into a WiFi hotspot, powered from the ignition or optional battery unit, and a roof-mounted antenna boosts the WiFi signal up to a 100-metre radius.
Customers can gain real-time GPS location and analytics, while passengers can send, receive, and access critical information on the go with data allowances of up to 1 terabyte – enough to browse the web for more than 20,000 hours or watch 300 hours of high-definition video.
Smart Hubs are typically used in construction, maintenance and utilities where employees are often in remote locations where they need to stream or download large files.
