HYPERSPAN

Market Focus

Transport & Infrastructure

Hyperspan™ helps transport and infrastructure projects reach further with less supporting infrastructure. Across stations, depots, car parks, roadside assets, yards and long operational corridors, Hyperspan can help simplify long-distance connectivity to cameras, access control and edge devices.

01

Why Hyperspan suits transport & infrastructure environments

Transport and infrastructure sites regularly need cameras, ANPR, access control and operational devices along long corridors, platforms, depots, car parks and outdoor routes — distances that challenge conventional copper design.

Hyperspan is designed to help support these longer edge deployments with a cleaner infrastructure approach, reducing unnecessary intermediate cabinets where the application and channel design allow it.

Typical advantages

  • Support longer runs along corridors, platforms and outdoor routes
  • Reduce additional cabinets across depots and remote zones
  • Lower dependency on intermediate switches or extenders
  • Create a cleaner and easier-to-manage infrastructure topology
  • Support stronger value engineering on transport projects

The challenge with standard Cat6 in transport & infrastructure projects

In transport environments, the issue is rarely one link. It is cumulative distance across stations, yards, roadside assets and distributed operational services.

Standard Cat6 approach

  • Long infrastructure runs often exceed standard planning assumptions
  • Extra cabinets may be needed across platforms, depots or remote zones
  • Additional active hardware can be introduced to bridge distance
  • Infrastructure can become more fragmented and harder to support
  • More cabinets and devices can increase cost and operational complexity

Hyperspan approach

  • Supports a cleaner long-run strategy for transport edge devices
  • Can reduce additional cabinets across the estate
  • Helps remove mid-span switches or extenders from the topology
  • Creates a more centralised and efficient network design
  • Can improve project cost efficiency across larger infrastructure sites

Key benefits for transport & infrastructure deployments

Longer corridor reach

Extend connectivity further across platforms, depots, car parks, yards and outdoor infrastructure routes.

Fewer distributed cabinets

Reduce the need for extra cabinets across remote transport and infrastructure zones.

Supports PoE-powered edge devices

Suitable for CCTV, ANPR, access control, Wi-Fi and other powered transport endpoints.

Cleaner infrastructure topology

Simplify the design by reducing unnecessary active hardware and supporting equipment.

Lower maintenance burden

Fewer intermediate devices can help reduce failure points and simplify long-term support.

Stronger commercial case

Give operators and integrators a more efficient alternative to a traditional Cat6 infrastructure layout.

04

Typical transport & infrastructure use cases

Common deployments

  • Station and depot CCTV
  • ANPR and vehicle access systems
  • Car park and roadside surveillance
  • Access control across transport facilities
  • Wi-Fi coverage in support spaces
  • Yard and operational corridor monitoring

Good fit where you need to:

  • Reach devices further from a central rack or equipment room
  • Reduce cabinets in dispersed transport layouts
  • Support powered edge devices over longer runs
  • Simplify the infrastructure model
  • Improve value engineering on larger transport projects

Project outcomes can include

  • Lower supporting hardware count
  • Cleaner estate-wide design
  • Reduced installation complexity
  • Improved serviceable area per rack
  • Stronger maintenance and support model
