Transport & Logistics
Private 5G networks for ports, depots, rail corridors, and fleet operations. Real-time tracking, V2X communications, and digital twins — without the enterprise price tag.
UK ports, depots, and freight operators need reliable, high-capacity connectivity for real-time tracking, autonomous vehicles, and safety systems. But enterprise 5G contracts are priced for the biggest operators. We build private networks for regional transport businesses that need the same capability at a fraction of the cost.
What Private 5G Enables
Real-time connectivity for every part of the transport and logistics chain.
Port & Depot Connectivity
Replace fragmented legacy networks with a single managed 5G network. Track individual items within containers, not just the container itself. Enable real-time digital twins of your entire operation.
Fleet & Vehicle Management
V2X (Vehicle-to-Everything) communications for cyclist and pedestrian alerts, junction assistance, and coordination of autonomous vehicles. Green light prioritisation for freight and public transport.
Safety & Inspections
Deploy drones for safety inspections of infrastructure, reducing worker risk and operational disruption. Network slicing separates mission-critical safety data from general traffic.
Passenger Experience
Dynamic scheduling based on real-time occupancy monitoring. Personalised journey information across multi-modal transport networks. Reliable connectivity for passengers and staff.

Why Aerix
Most private 5G providers target the UK's largest ports and national freight operators. Regional depots, smaller ports, and local transport businesses are left with fragmented legacy networks or overpriced enterprise contracts. We build the same capability for operators who need it but can't justify six-figure infrastructure spend.
