Quick start guide

VDO Mobile Hotspot is an easy-to-use router that provides a stable Internet connection in moving vehicles like buses or lorries. The connection is of the highest quality, thanks to our real-time, multiple SIM card system – and access is always available with the relevant card. Our system uses two SIM cards – and optimal reception is guaranteed, since both cards ‘compete’ with one another to find the strongest signal. You can also use the two SIM cards to travel in different countries. By using special roaming options, the system automatically finds the relevant card for the current country – and that cuts costs.

Base functionality
Always on!
Unlimited Internet access whether in the office
or on the move is fast becoming an essential
requirement for businessmen and everyday
traveller. Now you can offer this rapidly ex-
panding customer group reliable Internet ac-
cess in your vehicles – with WLAN (Wi-Fi).
Safeguard your competitive edge
User benefit
Strengthen existing customer loyalty and win
new travelling customers by providing them
with access to their e-mails and Web browsing
on the move.
Travelling often means the loss of potentially
productive working time. Whether special
project information or a vital e-mail message
is needed fast by a company employee on his
notebook, or if a traveller simply wants to while
away the journey time, the Internet is an almost
limitless source of information and entertain-
ment. WLAN access is guaranteed to attract
these customers.
Additional company benefit
You can also use our two-way high-speed
links for operational enhancements like vehicle
tracking, ensuring adherence to schedules
and remotely viewing and controlling CCTV
equipment.
Base functionality
To address this trend, we have developed a user-friendly
router. It provides a stable Internet connection in moving
vehicles like busses or lorries. The connection is of the
highest quality, thanks to our real-time, multiple SIM card
system – and access is always available with the relevant
card.
Future compatibility
To keep up with future telecommunication norms, the rout-
er can be upgraded to upcoming network standards, safe-
guarding your investment in the “mobile hotspot”.
Functionality outlook
Solutions like “tracking and tracing”, vehicle surveillance
as well as “remote diagnosis” of our multiplexing electronic
system KIBES
®
can be implemented due to our open pro-
gramming interface.
Best reception at optimal
cost – wherever you are
During a journey, conventional UMTS
cards often fail, simply because mobile
network availability is constantly chang-
ing or interrupted.
Our system uses two SIM cards – and
optimal reception is guaranteed, since
both cards ‘compete’ with one another
to find the strongest signal.
You can also use the two SIM cards to
travel in different countries. By using
special roaming options, the system
automatically finds the relevant card for
the current country – and that cuts costs.
