Case Study: UGent Racing achieves reliable real-time race car monitoring with Peplink

UGent Racing Speeds Through Unreliable Connections with Peplink

UGent Racing, a student-run organization that builds self-driving race cars, faced unreliable connectivity for remotely monitoring and updating their vehicle's electronic control unit during competitions. Their previous router frequently dropped connections, leaving the team without critical real-time data. They needed a compact, high-performance solution from Peplink to overcome this challenge.

Peplink provided a BR1 Pro 5G router and a Mobility 42G antenna, which delivered robust cellular connectivity that remained stable even at high speeds. This solution empowered UGent Racing to monitor their car and perform live coding remotely, making their test days significantly more productive. The results were so positive that the team has dedicated space for the Peplink router in their next-generation vehicle.
