Jetway® Passenger Boarding Bridges: A Smart Connection
Jetway® passenger boarding bridges have long set the standard in passenger boarding and continue to evolve through smart, data-driven engineering. Modern bridge systems are equipped with advanced diagnostics, energy-efficient power systems and intuitive controls that manage setup time and maintenance needs. Whether accommodating next-generation aircraft or integrating with digital management tools, Jetway passenger bridges help keep operations moving smoothly and safely- promoting a positive gate experience for operators and passengers alike while offering solutions unique to airports of all sizes and needs.
JetDock™ Automated Docking: Precision at the Gate
The JetDock™ automated docking system takes gate efficiency to the next level with automated aircraft docking technology. Using laser-guided sensors and real-time positioning data, JetDock automated technology enables precise alignment between the aircraft and the boarding bridge which can help control delays, eliminate guesswork and minimize the risk of costly incidents. This automation not only promotes efficient turnaround times, but can also help improve consistency and safety across gates and fleets.
iOPS™ Monitoring Technology: Intelligent Operations, Real-Time Insight
Data helps fuel aviation efficiency, and iOPS™ intelligent management puts that data to work. This intelligent operations platform connects gate equipment from Jetway® passenger boarding bridges to power systems, as well as GSE, through IoT-enabled monitoring and analytics. With real-time visibility into asset performance, usage and maintenance needs, iOPS technology helps empower airport teams to promote effective maintenance, operations, performance and make data-driven decisions that drive measurable operational gains.
JetAire® Air Pre-Conditioned Units
Oshkosh AeroTech’s JetAire® pre-conditioned air (PCA) units are designed to deliver reliable, energy-efficient climate control directly to parked aircraft, supporting passenger comfort while controlling reliance on onboard auxiliary power units. Built for both fixed and mobile applications, these systems support a wide range of aircraft types and airport configurations, making them a flexible solution for diverse ground operations. As part of Oshkosh AeroTech’s broader portfolio, PCA units integrate seamlessly with other ground support equipment to help airports and airlines promote efficiency, control emissions and streamline turnaround processes.
Jetpower® Ground Power Systems
Jetpower® technology provides advanced ground power solutions that deliver reliable electrical power to aircraft at the gate, controlling the need for onboard auxiliary power units. Engineered for efficiency and durability, Jetpower systems support a wide range of aircraft and can be configured for central systems as well as cart-mounted, diesel-powered, and passenger boarding bridge units. As part of Oshkosh AeroTech’s comprehensive product lineup, Jetpower technology helps airports and airlines manage operating costs, control emissions and maintain consistent performance across operations.
AmpCart™ and AmpTek™: Electrifying Ground Power Solutions
AmpCart™ and AmpTek™ from Oshkosh AeroTech deliver sustainable power solutions which help airports meet performance and environmental goals. These solutions represent the next generation of electric ground support equipment, designed to bring clean, quiet and efficient power to the ramp. Oshkosh AeroTech’s AmpCart is a mobile, electric solution that provides flexible ground power wherever it’s needed on the airport grounds, helping manage emissions and promote operational agility. Oshkosh AeroTech’s AmpTek complements this with a fixed, gate-based charging and power system that supports consistent, high-performance energy delivery for aircraft servicing. Together, these technologies highlight Oshkosh AeroTech’s commitment to electrification and innovation, giving airports and airlines scalable solutions to modernize their operations while advancing sustainability goals.
