Mining Camp WiFi Installation
Mining Camp WiFi Installation and Support
Accommodation WiFi that workers actually rate. We design coverage for rooms, dining halls, gyms and offices, separate guest, worker and corporate traffic, manage bandwidth fairly, link buildings with fibre or wireless backhaul and monitor the whole network around the clock.
For FIFO workers, camp WiFi is how they talk to family, unwind and stay connected for two or three weeks at a time. Poor WiFi is a genuine retention and wellbeing issue.
Good camp WiFi is engineered — not a few access points bolted to the dining hall.
Design for coverage and capacity
We survey buildings and materials, plan access point placement for room coverage and dense common areas, and design for the number of devices — not just square metres. Outdoor access points cover walkways and recreational areas.
Fair, secure and managed
Guest, worker and corporate networks are separated. Bandwidth is shared fairly so a few heavy users cannot consume the link. Captive portals manage authentication and acceptable use, and the network is monitored centrally.
