UAE: FREQUENTIS & BIN HILAL TEAM TO DELIVER COMMUNICATION SOLUTIONS

Frequentis has partnered with Bin Hilal Enterprises to support the market demand for mission-critical solutions in the UAE.

Bin Hilal is well-known for delivering state-of-the-art-technologies, products and services to the UAE Defence. By partnering with Bin Hilal Enterprises Frequentis aims to increase its footprint in the Defence market in the UAE.

“We are looking forward to supporting Frequentis – says at Spazio-News Magazine Humaid Al Ahaheri Vice Chairman Bin Hilal Enterprises -, helping them to grow their technology base in the Middle-East, bringing their experience and mission-critical technology portfolio to the region”.

One of Frequentis’ key strengths in the civil domain, which is now gaining attention in the defence field, is its remote digital tower solution.

“Remote air traffic control tower (RT) and digital tower solutions have already been tested and put into operation at civil airports around the world, but the potential for defence organisations is even greater – says Hank Ruebenstrunk, Head of Regional Sales Unit Middle East -. The Frequentis smartVISION system allows controllers to benefit from an enhanced view of the airfield, compared to the one from a conventional tower with additional features like object detection, tracking and infrared available.”

In October 2019, Frequentis completed installation of its remote digital tower solution for Santa Cruz airfield in Brazil, making it the first such system in South America. Here 16 high-performance, Pan-TiltZoom – PTZ cameras located around the airbase feed data back to a 14-screen video wall in a bespoke remote tower facility, creating a 360-degree panorama view of the airfield. In addition, the US DoD are currently testing the mobile, deployable version of the Frequentis smartVISION system, and will begin testing the fixed version in March 2020.
