Axxès Introduces 4G Toll Box and Digital Services at Transport Logistic 2025
In the lead-up to Deutsche Telekom's planned shutdown of its 2G network by June 30, 2028, French toll specialist Axxès is introducing a new generation of electronic toll solutions, C'moov and Méditerranée, designed to ensure seamless operation beyond the 2G era.
At the Transport Logistic trade fair in Munich, Axxès is showcasing these innovative solutions in Hall A6, Stand 333.
**C'moov** - A Multi-technology Toll Solution
C'moov devices support multiple communication technologies including 3G, 4G, and upcoming 5G networks, ensuring seamless operation beyond 2G. The hybrid connectivity of C'moov incorporates GNSS for precise geolocation combined with cellular connectivity for data transmission.
The smart tolling system offers toll and mobility service management with real-time updates and multi-operator interoperability. C'moov's user-friendly interface enables easy plug-and-play for fleet operators, while its cloud-based management platform provides a centralized platform for monitoring, reporting, and managing toll usage, invoices, and compliance.
**Méditerranée** - A GNSS-Based Toll Solution
Méditerranée is a robust and advanced GNSS-based toll solution designed to support large commercial fleets with multi-country toll coverage. It offers improved lane-level accuracy for tolling on complex road infrastructures and utilizes 3G/4G LTE networks complemented by Wi-Fi and other IoT protocols for data synchronization.
Méditerranée is equipped with strong encryption and privacy controls aligned with European regulations, ensuring security and compliance.
**Addressing the 2G Shutdown Challenge**
The shutdown of the 2G network is meant to free up frequencies for modern technologies like 4G and 5G. To address this challenge, both C'moov and Méditerranée are engineered to operate on 3G, 4G, and future 5G networks, fully bypassing the obsolete 2G infrastructure.
Devices switch dynamically between GNSS, cellular networks, and Wi-Fi to maintain constant communication and data integrity without interruption. The hardware and firmware are designed for easy upgrades, allowing operators to adapt quickly to evolving network environments without replacing entire systems.
Buffered data storage ensures no loss of toll events during temporary network outages, syncing automatically once connectivity is restored.
**Benefits of C'moov and Méditerranée Solutions**
- **Future-proof Technology:** By moving beyond 2G reliance, these solutions ensure uninterrupted toll service despite the 2G network phase-out. - **Seamless Cross-border Tolling:** Both systems are designed to operate efficiently across multiple European toll domains, simplifying fleet management. - **Operational Efficiency:** Real-time data and cloud connectivity reduce administrative burdens and improve invoice reconciliation. - **Cost Savings:** Hybrid GNSS and cellular solutions optimize data costs and minimize hardware upgrades. - **Improved User Experience:** Intuitive device management and support services enhance ease of use for operators. - **Environmental Impact:** Efficient routing and toll management contribute indirectly to reduced emissions by optimizing fleet operations.
For those interested, technical specifications, use cases, or guidance on migrating from legacy devices to these new solutions can be provided. The toll box "Méditerranée" is available through the German mobility startup maut1.de.
Sports enthusiasts using GPS-enabled fitness devices during their outdoor activities may benefit from C'moov's hybrid connectivity, as the technology supports 3G, 4G, and upcoming 5G networks for seamless data transmission. With weather apps relying on updated, real-time data for accurate forecasts, Méditerranée's GNSS-based solutions could improve the accuracy of these predictions by providing precise geolocation for atmospheric sensors.
