Why private LTE matters
Public cellular networks are sufficient for everyday consumer use, but mission-critical industries demand more.
- Guaranteed Bandwidth: Operations cannot afford slowdowns.
- Security: Sensitive data must remain off the public internet.
- Control: Uptime is non-negotiable.
- Reach: Connectivity must extend to locations beyond public network coverage.
Fieldbase enables this transition across Africa and beyond, delivering enterprise-grade connectivity where traditional infrastructure cannot reach.
The Fieldbase connectivity ecosystem
Fieldbase integrates Private LTE with Starlink Low Earth Orbit satellite backhaul to create a seamless, global solution.
- Private LTE: Provides local, high-speed wireless infrastructure.
- Starlink: Ensures reliable backhaul connectivity to enterprise systems and the broader internet.
- Combined Impact: Enterprise mobility that works virtually anywhere, even far beyond terrestrial coverage.
Industry applications
Maritime & offshore
- Ports in Lagos, Tema, and Mombasa use private LTE for logistics, cargo tracking, and workforce communication.
- Shipping leaders like Maersk deploy private LTE across fleets for crew connectivity, navigation, and cargo monitoring.
- Offshore oil platforms benefit from secure IoT sensors, video surveillance, and emergency communications—even mid-ocean.
