Maintaining a stable internet connection at high-altitude mountain passes presents significant technical challenges. The Alpes-Maritimes Department tasked Welink Tech with supporting its automated photo capture system across 8 iconic regional sites.
From Madone to the Col de Turini, our 4G and 5G solutions provide digital access to isolated areas for critical connectivity requirements.
The Challenge: Data Transmission in Remote or Isolated Zones
The Departmental Council implemented an automated imaging system requiring high reliability. To ensure these devices operate and transmit images in real-time, two requirements were essential:
-
Robust network coverage despite altitude and terrain constraints.
-
Fixed IP address to enable remote management and secure retrieval of image feeds.
8 Connected Passes via Welink Tech Expertise
Our professional SIM cards and connectivity solutions were deployed across 8 strategic sites in the Alpes-Maritimes, with data requirements tailored to each station:
-
High-traffic sites (50 GB/month): Gréolières, Madone, Col des Champs, Col de Braus, and the Col de Turini.
-
Optimized sites (20 GB/month): Valberg, Col de l'Ecre, and Saint-Raphaël.
Whether for sports tracking, tourism, or outdoor education management, the Welink Tech solution ensures consistent throughput, even during winter months under harsh weather conditions.
Why 5G and Fixed IP are Essential in Mountain Environments
While 4G serves as the foundation for this project, the integration of 5G offers expanded capabilities for local authorities:
-
High Definition: Transmission of 4K images or video without compression for improved landscape monitoring.
-
Remote Maintenance: Using Fixed IP, Departmental technicians can diagnose and configure camera equipment without physical site visits.
-
Energy Efficiency: Next-generation 4G/5G routers provide lower power consumption, suitable for remote installations.
