Introducing the Vocus LTE BDA underground 4G/5G solution in partnership with Australian technology innovator METStech. Hard rock miners are able to work with Vocus to ensure rapid and reliable data transmission from the mine's depths to surface-level monitoring systems.
No longer are these mining companies faced with issues associated with conventional underground data network solutions.
The Vocus LTE 2-way BDA solution works on existing infrastructure - making migration to LTE as easy as possible. This critical network backbone aids operational efficiencies and productivity while improving worker safety. Built to industrial-grade standards for the harsh environmental conditions, the Vocus private 4G/5G wireless network delivers the necessary communication for mine digitisation and the autonomous operation of equipment and tools for the modern mine.
The Vocus Business Intelligence platform provides end-to-end remote monitoring and reporting of critical assets across your sites. Provide your operational team with the knowledge and data needed to ensure your site is operating efficiently and productively. Having an accurate knowledge of people and assets in real-time reduces some of the risks associated with underground mining.
As a leading provider of fibre and network solutions, we are a leader in tailored 4G/5G networks. Our expert team started their history as Challenge Networks, an Australian company that designs, deploys, and operates private LTE and 5G networks for customers that require secure, reliable, high-capacity wireless to support Operational Technology use-cases.
The Vocus team have deployed private networks for companies operating in surface and underground hard rock mining.
