Dispatch stops, which is why a second path matters more here than in an office. A leased line with a guaranteed fix time as primary and a 4G or 5G circuit taking over automatically turns an open-ended outage into a known interruption. Against the cost of a shift that cannot scan or print, the second circuit is not the expensive part.

Yes, and they need designing as two problems inside one system. The office runs on handsets or softphones; the floor runs on mobiles behaving as extensions, with access points positioned for racking rather than for a floor plan. One number, one set of call handling, two very different installations.

Scale and movement more than anything technical. Very large sites mean a scanner crosses many access points in a single pick, so roaming and overlap matter more than raw coverage, and a survey has to be done with the racking loaded. Beyond that, failover — an outage in an intermodal operation is expensive in a way it is not in an office.
