Smart WiFi

For industrial sites

Coverage that survives racking, machinery and moving stock.

Warehouses and factories change constantly. Metal shelving, high ceilings and moving stock can turn a good-looking plan into dead zones for scanners and forklifts.

The problem

Why it matters

Metal reflects and blocks WiFi, ceilings may be 10 m or higher, and stock levels change the environment day to day. Yards and outdoor areas add weather and distance.

How it works

Our approach

  1. 01A site survey assesses racking, machinery, ceiling height, interference and where scanners and vehicles actually move.
  2. 02Rugged or outdoor-rated hardware is selected for dust, heat, moisture and vibration where required.
  3. 03Fibre backbones connect distant comms cabinets and buildings with distance and electrical isolation benefits.
  4. 04Operational devices such as scanners, PLCs and cameras can be placed on separate networks from office users.
