Union Pacific Implements RF System in a Timely and Cost-Effective Manner
Overview Union Pacific Corporation is one of America's leading transportation companies. The problem that Union Pacific faced was that, periodically, one of the containers would get misplaced in the yard. When this happened, the only way to find it was to dedicate a single person to drive around the yard and look at each of the container numbers until it was found. Union Pacific knew the benefits of putting in an RF system to track containers, but the cost to run data cable under the railroad tracks in order to install base stations was insurmountable. The software consultant for Union Pacific contacted the Psion Teklogix Network Services team. Network Services worked closely with Union Pacific and the software consultant to design a system that would provide wireless access to their software application anywhere in the yard.
