AirgainConnect® Fleet™

Vehicle-Mounted 5G Gateway

Fleet connectivity without the complexity.

AirgainConnect® Fleet™ (AC-Fleet) is the industry’s most compact all-in-one 5G vehicle gateway, designed to reduce install time, minimize cabling, and keep fleets connected in demanding environments.

Why fleets choose AC-Fleet

A simpler alternative to traditional vehicle router and external antenna systems.

The most compact all-in-one vehicle gateway

Smaller footprint and fewer components reduce clutter, shorten installation time, and lower the number of potential failure points.

Stronger connectivity at the edge

Up to 2 additional miles of usable coverage by eliminating RF cable loss common in traditional vehicle installations.

Faster vehicle installation

Up to 50 percent less install time with simplified power and networking, returning vehicles to service sooner.

Stay connected as coverage changes

Multi-carrier eSIM automatically switches to next available carrier without physical SIM cards to manage or replace.

Connect multiple devices and teams

Built-in Wi-Fi and wired Ethernet allow crews to connect laptops, tablets, cameras, and vehicle systems through a single, reliable connection.

The challenge fleets face

Fleet vehicles often operate where wireless coverage can be spotty or congested. Rural roads, large events, busy corridors, emergency scenes, and remote job sites expose the limits of traditional vehicle connectivity.

Conventional setups rely on long antenna cable runs, multiple components, and single-carrier connections. This leads to weaker coverage, more complex installs, more failure points and more time spent troubleshooting in the field.

The AC-Fleet solution

AC-Fleet simplifies vehicle connectivity by replacing multiple components with a single, compact gateway.

It integrates the 5G modem, Wi-Fi, GPS, and antennas into one system, eliminating RF cable loss while simplifying installation and improving usable coverage at the edge.

Multi-carrier eSIM automatically switches networks as conditions change, without physical SIM cards to manage, replace, or risk damage.

Built-in Wi-Fi and Ethernet consolidate connectivity for crews and onboard equipment, replacing SIM-enabled phones or devices with a single gateway.

With minimal cabling and a single power and network connection, AC-Fleet installs in under two hours, making it easy to deploy quickly across your entire fleet.

Proven in the field

Trusted by public safety, utility, and transportation fleets across North America.

“We used AC-Fleet in the middle of a crowd of half a million people, and we stayed connected the entire time. No signal loss. No delays. This gear just works.”
Lt. Chris Hinson
Operations & Support Services, Chatham-Savannah Counter Narcotics Team
