OPCSA terminal gains sharper edge with private 5G connectivity | Computer Weekly
"In a deployment that is said to mark a "significant" milestone in the port terminal's digital transformation journey, enhancing connectivity, operational intelligence and reducing costs, Operaciones Portuarias Canarias (OPCSA) has engaged neutral host and private network provider Boldyn Networks as a key contractor in a strategic project to design, deploy and operate a private 5G network utilising Nokia Digital Automation Cloud (DAC)."
"Located in the port of Las Palmas, OPCSA is the Canary Islands' largest container terminal, and is directly connected to more than 74 ports worldwide, sitting on key shipping routes between Europe, Africa and South America. OPCSA is also part of TiL, a global leader in terminal operations. As a strategic logistics hub, the terminal handles high volumes of cargo, and requires cutting-edge infrastructure to maintain efficiency and competitiveness."
"The agreement is based on Boldyn's private 5G as a service, and the host provider says it can offer OPCSA a fast, secure and scalable network without the burden of managing infrastructure. This fully managed model is designed to ensure predictable costs, rapid deployment and ongoing support. As the project progresses, Boldyn and OPCSA said they would assess performance and explore a broader roll-out, positioning the port as a leader in digital logistics innovation."
Operaciones Portuarias Canarias (OPCSA) has contracted Boldyn Networks to design, deploy and operate a private 5G network using Nokia Digital Automation Cloud (DAC) at the Las Palmas container terminal. The deployment targets connectivity improvements, operational intelligence and cost reductions while enabling testing and digitisation of container logistics and maintenance workflows. Operators will use tablets for tasks, RTG crane PCs at 20 metres will be digitised, and STS cranes over 100 metres will be monitored without new civil works or fibre. Boldyn will deliver the network as a fully managed service to ensure scalability, security and predictable costs, with performance assessment and potential broader roll-out planned.
