Top Field Connectivity Challenges—And How SuperGIG™ and Private Wireless Solve Them

Field Connectivity Challenges: Your Results & Our Consultative, Customized Solutions

Staying connected in remote, rugged, or rapidly changing environments isn’t easy—and there’s no one-size-fits-all approach. Whether you’re managing a wildfire response, supporting mobile utility crews, or operating in remote oilfields, field operations demand reliable, high-performance connectivity.

We recently asked: What’s your biggest field connectivity challenge?
Here’s what you told us:

  • Congested public networks – 36%

  • Lack of signal – 27%

  • Poor speeds – 18%

  • Too many IoT devices – 18%

At IP Access International, we take a consultative approach to wireless connectivity, working closely with public safety agencies, energy providers, and enterprise customers to design resilient solutions. Below, we break down each challenge and how our products—powered by SuperGIG™ blended satellite and LTE connectivity and private LTE/5G networks—solve them.

Challenge:
Commercial LTE and 5G networks are often overwhelmed in populated areas, disaster zones, and during large-scale events. This can disrupt mission-critical communications for first responders, utility crews, and mobile teams.

Solution: Deploy a Private LTE Network for Emergency Response and Enterprise Use
We implement private cellular networks using CBRS spectrum, providing uncontended bandwidth, increased security, and consistent performance—ideal for public safety communications, smart grid operations, and industrial IoT.

Products in Action:

  • Celona Private Wireless Solutions – Designed for fast deployment in industrial and emergency settings

  • SIM & eSIM Management – Secure device authentication for managed access

  • Portable LTE Network Kits – Temporary or mobile deployments for incident response and field operations

2. Lack of Signal (27%)

Challenge:
Commercial coverage often ends before your job begins—whether it’s a wildfire base camp, oil pipeline inspection route, or wind farm maintenance site.

Solution: Expand Coverage with SuperGIG™ Hybrid Satellite + LTE Connectivity
SuperGIG™ combines LTE, LEO satellite (OneWeb), and GEO backup into a seamless solution for remote site connectivity and off-grid communications.

Products in Action:

  • SuperGIG™ LEO GO Case: A rugged, portable solution that keeps you connected where traditional networks fail.

  • Intellian OW10 Flat Panel Antenna: A compact, flat panel design providing high-performance LEO backhaul.

  • Aggregation Devices: Seamlessly combine multiple networks for resilient connectivity.

3. Poor Speeds (18%)

Slow upload/download speeds hinder everything from video streaming and GIS access to real-time coordination in emergency scenarios.

Solution: Deploy High-Speed Satellite Backhaul and Optimized Edge Routing
SuperGIG™ supports speeds up to 500 Mbps, and our edge-optimized wireless networks are engineered to prioritize low-latency applications and bandwidth-intensive data transfers.

Products in Action:

  • SuperGIG™ Satellite Gateway Kits: Achieve aggregated throughput to boost speed and reliability.

  • Edge-Intelliegent Routers: Prioritize critical traffic and reduce latency.

  • Quality-of-Service SIMs: Guarantee that essential data always gets through.

4. Too Many IoT Devices (18%)

Challenge:
Industrial sites and public safety operations often deploy hundreds of connected sensors, SCADA systems, and IoT devices, all competing for bandwidth.

Solution: Segmented Private Networks for High-Density IoT Environments
We help you design secure, segmented private wireless networks that manage IoT traffic locally, ensuring bandwidth for the most critical systems and reducing latency at the edge.

Products in Action:

  • CBRS-Based IoT Networks – Scale to support thousands of devices
  • SIM Management Platform – Device-level control over access and data priority
  • Radio Over IP Gateways: Integrate legacy systems into a modern, secure network framework.

Bonus: Comms-On-The-Move (COTM) for SuperGIG™

Challenge:
For operations that require connectivity while in motion—such as public safety vehicles, mobile command centers, and utility fleets—staying connected isn’t just about signal strength; it’s about reliable, uninterrupted service on the move.

Our Solution: SuperGIG™ + Flat Panel Antennas for Vehicle Connectivity
Our Comms-On-The-Move (COTM) solutions leverage SuperGIG™ along with flat panel antennas, intelligent gateways, and in-vehicle routers. These systems are designed to provide always-on connectivity without manual intervention.

Products in Action:

  • Flat Panel Antennas: Compact and low-profile, perfect for vehicle integration.

  • SuperGIG™ LEO + LTE Gateways: Provide intelligent multi-path routing between LTE, LEO, and GEO networks.

  • Mobile Aggregation Devices & In-Vehicle Routers: Ensure seamless connectivity across all your mobile platforms, including FirstNet-ready systems.
