Getac and Anterix Revolutionize Utility Operations with Private LTE

Getac Technology Corporation, a prominent name in rugged computing and mobile video solutions, has announced a significant partnership with Anterix, the leading owner of licensed 900 MHz spectrum in the United States. This collaboration marks a pioneering step towards improving connectivity for utilities and critical infrastructure operators by facilitating the deployment of private LTE networks.

In a landscape where reliable communication is paramount, especially for utilities working in challenging conditions, Getac’s rugged devices are poised to make a substantial impact. Their devices have recently earned AnterixActive® badges for the B360 rugged notebook and the F120 rugged tablet, indicating their readiness for operation on the Anterix 900 MHz private LTE spectrum. This certification allows utility and other critical infrastructure organizations to operate with enhanced security, reliability, and performance, tailored specifically for harsh field environments.

Enhancing Communication in the Utility Sector

Utilities and critical infrastructure operators face unique challenges, especially as they digitize their field operations and implement more sophisticated applications. Charlie Gibbs, the Director of Product Solutions at Getac North America, emphasized the need for trust in communication platforms. He stated, “As they digitize field operations, utilities and critical infrastructure operators depend on reliable communications platforms, particularly for mission-critical applications.” The partnership with Anterix reinforces Getac's dedication to providing rugged and dependable devices designed to perform under the demanding conditions these operators often encounter.

Anterix's role goes beyond just supplying spectrum; they also provide deployment solutions that enable a seamless transition to private LTE for various operations, including workforce mobility and grid modernization. The integration of Getac's rugged products into Anterix's solutions means utility crews can enjoy secure access to real-time data, enhancing their operational efficiency even in the toughest environments.

A Strong Collaborative Ecosystem

Through its participation in the Anterix Active Ecosystem (AAE), Getac joins over 150 technology providers committed to delivering tailored solutions for utility operations. This collaborative environment aims to simplify procurement processes, accelerate deployment timelines, and offer end-to-end solutions designed specifically for utility and infrastructure requirements. As utilities strive to implement secure and effective solutions quickly, having certified devices readily available reduces the risks associated with integration and lowers long-term costs.

Steve Ryan, Vice President of Ecosystem and Partnerships at Anterix, remarked, “Anterix has developed a robust ecosystem that assists utilities in transitioning from mere spectrum to tangible operational outcomes more efficiently.” By incorporating Getac’s rugged devices, Anterix expands its portfolio of solutions that enables utilities to deploy reliable mobile workforce solutions, ensuring connectivity, data protection, and operational stability where it is critically needed.
