Case Study: CLdN COBELFRET achieves automated, secure connectivity and faster network onboarding with HPE Aruba Networking

Seamless connectivity and smooth sailing

Compagnie Luxembourgeoise de Navigation (CLdN), a Luxembourg-based supply chain operator with 31 vessels and over 200 weekly sailings across Europe, needed to modernize connectivity across on- and offshore operations. The company faced manual, fragmented network management that slowed adoption of digital workflows and limited integration of environmental sensors, location tracking, and customer data sharing, while also needing stronger policy-based security, application prioritization, and lower connectivity costs.

CLdN implemented HPE Aruba Networking solutions — including EdgeConnect SD‑WAN, CX switches, Wi‑Fi 6 access points, EdgeConnect Orchestrator, ClearPass Policy Manager, and Aruba Central — to automate and unify network management. The deployment delivered automated operations, policy-driven security and traffic prioritization, ensured appropriate bandwidth for critical users and applications, and reduced the time and effort required to bring new locations online.
