Tele2’s wireless network connects Axfood’s warehouses in Sweden
The Swedish telecommunications operator Tele2 builds and maintains the grocery company Axfood’s wireless network in the group’s new logistics facility.
The wireless network will connect robots, machines and other IT systems inside the logistics center, which is currently being built by the purchasing and logistics company Dagab.
Tele2 will connect the new warehouse primarily via wireless Wi-Fi that will control handheld scanners, forklift computers, cameras, alarms, solar power plants and more.
Axfood’s new facility in Bålsta, outside Stockholm, corresponds in size to 14 football fields with 126,000 square meters of floor space and a ceiling height of 30 meters.

The operations in Bålsta will supply food stores, e-commerce customers and the service trade in the Mälardal region and to the north. The facility will be highly automated with three different temperature zones and will hold frozen, chilled and tempered goods.
“Few things are more exciting right now than seeing how our customers find new and innovative ways to make their business more efficient when we empower them through faster and more secure connectivity,” says Tele2 BWB Sales Director Sofia Ahlmark Hyvärinen.
“The agreement with Tele2 means that we at Axfood can focus on further developing our business at the same time that Tele2 contributes with its skills in the safe, sustainable and stable operation of our network,” says Axfood’s IT operations manager Pär-Olof Skåntorp.
ENABLE THE HYBRID CLOUD AND REDUCE NETWORK LATENCY WHITEPAPER
Hybrid clouds promise to bring together the best of both worlds, enabling businesses to combine the scalability and cost-effectiveness of the cloud with the performance and control you can get from your on-premises infrastructure.
Reducing WAN latency is one of the biggest concerns with hybrid cloud performance. Taking advantage of data compression and deduplication can reduce network latency.
Research firm Markets and Markets predicted that the size of the hybrid cloud market is expected to grow from $38.27 billion in 2017 to $97.64 billion in 2023.
Colocation facilities provide many of the benefits of having your servers in the cloud while retaining physical control over your systems.
The proximity to the cloud provided by colocation facilities can enable you to take advantage of their low latency and high bandwidth connections to the cloud as well as provide a solid connection back to your on-premises business network.
