Proof from
the field.

Three networks that could not afford to blink — jewellery boutiques, unattended vending fleets, and live city intersections. What happened when each of them joined the constellation.

01 / Retail — Jewellery Link active

Zero downtime,
zero compromise

12.9716° N / 77.5946° E · 240 sites

A national jewellery house runs its entire floor on the network — POS terminals, 4K surveillance, vault sensors — across 240 boutiques where a single dark minute is an uninsurable one. Before Orion, a broadband flap took a store offline for four minutes while cameras dropped mid-transaction. The chain deployed Orion Edge 300 in every boutique and Edge 600 4G at flagship sites: encrypted SD-WAN tunnels, application-aware routing that puts POS and camera streams first, and cellular standby that takes over before a session notices. Eighteen months on, the outage log is still empty.

02 / Unattended Retail — Vending Fleet online

A fleet that sells
while no one watches

6 metros · 3,800 units · cellular-first

An unattended-retail operator runs 3,800 cashless vending machines across six metros — machines that only earn while they're connected, in stations and lobbies where nobody will ever plug in a cable. Each unit ships with a compact Orion Edge 600 4G inside: it powers on, calls home, pulls its policy, and joins the fleet — no technician, no site visit. Payments ride an encrypted tunnel with session persistence through cellular handoffs, while the cloud console watches stock telemetry and link health for the whole fleet on one map. Provisioning that took contractors eleven days per batch now takes forty minutes.

03 / Smart City — Live Video Streams nominal

The city,
streaming live

620 intersections · 4G + 5G backhaul

A metropolitan traffic authority needed live 1080p video from every signal camera in its command centre — and trenching fibre to 620 poles was a decade of roadworks it didn't have. Instead, an Orion Edge 1200 4G went into each signal cabinet, streaming over bonded 4G/5G, with Edge 2000 5G aggregation at three district hubs. SLA-driven path selection measures every cellular link in real time and moves each stream to whichever path holds the jitter budget, so operators watch the intersection, not a buffer wheel. The whole grid went live inside one traffic season.
