Wi-Fi 6 Connectivity Upgrade at Tanzania Ports Authority
Client: Tanzania Ports Authority (TPA)
Project: Outdoor Wi-Fi 6 Deployment at Dar es Salaam & Mtwara Ports
Industry: Maritime, Logistics
Location: Tanzania
Year Delivered: 2022
Executed by: Aircom
Technology Partner: Cambium Networks
The Challenge
TPA needed a reliable wireless network to match the scale and complexity of its port operations in Dar es Salaam and Mtwara. From logistics to administration, connectivity gaps were slowing down workflows and impacting efficiency. The goal was to create a high-speed, weatherproof Wi-Fi infrastructure that could handle large data loads and support critical systems across vast outdoor spaces.
Our Solution
Aircom deployed a full-scale enterprise-grade Wi-Fi 6 solution using Cambium Networks' XV2-series outdoor access points. Designed for high performance in marine environments, the network was rolled out across port terminals, cargo zones, and administrative areas. Everything is managed centrally via cnMaestro™, giving TPA total control and visibility over its wireless operations.
Key Deployment Highlights
- 105+ Cambium XV2-2T Outdoor Wi-Fi 6 APs for wide-area coverage
- Installed across logistics zones, terminals, and key buildings
- Rugged, weatherproof infrastructure for outdoor marine conditions
- Centralized network monitoring and management via cnMaestro™
- Seamless support for mobile scanners, workstations, CCTV, and enterprise apps
The Results
- Reliable, high-speed wireless coverage across critical operational areas
- Improved mobility and productivity for port staff and systems
- Faster, more efficient cargo handling and logistics coordination
- Scalable, secure infrastructure built for future port technology needs
The Impact
This Wi-Fi deployment has turned TPA’s ports into digitally enabled logistics hubs, where staff, systems, and security devices stay connected at all times. With centralized control and high-throughput coverage, the solution has boosted efficiency and created a strong foundation for the next phase of TPA’s smart port evolution.
Turning complex tech into simple, seamless solutions that move industries forward.
