SYSTEM AND APPARATUS FOR IMPLEMENTING A HIGH SPEED LINK BETWEEN A MOBILE CACHE AND AN EDGE CACHE

摘要

A system and method for implementing a high speed link between a mobile cache and an edge cache. For example, one embodiment of a system comprises: a mobile cache deployed on a vessel/vehicle, the mobile cache to store multimedia content to be provided to passengers on the vessel/vehicle; a first network device including a first plurality of wireless network antennas communicatively coupled to the mobile cache; an edge cache deployed at a designated location at which the vessel/vehicle is expected; a second network device including a second plurality of wireless network antennas communicatively coupled to the edge cache; wherein upon arrival at the designated location, each of the first plurality of wireless network antennas is paired with at least one of the second plurality of wireless network antennas to establish a plurality of simultaneous wireless links to exchange multimedia content between the edge cache and the mobile cache.
