The various special developments of antennas, electronic modules and transponders have enabled us to continuously adapt our Axess gates to the requirements of mountain tourism. The components specially developed by Kathrein for Axess have made a major contribution to shortening waiting times at access points and passages in the resorts, optimizing customer flows and at the same time always using the latest technologies in ticketing.
