Wireless WAN for Construction

Wireless WAN for Construction

Diverse communication channels, evolving sites and secure transfer of high volumes of sensitive data: Optimised Wireless Network Edge can support every one of the unique network requirements that your construction business has. As an agile, hybrid wireless solution, it ensures a high-performing, always-on service for your team, sites and devices at any location.

Fulfilling the evolving network needs of construction companies

 

In the construction sector, reliably supporting your diverse connectivity requirements is essential for keeping projects on track and deadlines met. From head office to satellite depots or on temporary construction sites, your team needs to be confident they can access all the data required to carry out their daily tasks. However, good coverage is not always guaranteed, especially if your team is working in remote locations.

To ensure this service reliability, you cannot rely solely on terrestrial communication infrastructure. Our wireless WAN for construction provides an agile network service that leverages other connection methods to maintain high performance no matter the location is required.

Your network must also have the bandwidth capacity to deal with data-intensive applications. For example, Building Information Modelling platforms, onsite 3D printing and IoT monitoring devices can carry large volumes of data that your team and stakeholders need to access across multiple sites. 

Managing network traffic so they always deliver high performance is critical for the efficiency of your projects.

The construction industry is also unique in that many of your sites continually evolve, and you may require network access at new locations regularly.

Installing permanent physical infrastructure is both time-consuming and costly. Meanwhile, cellular coverage will struggle to support the high network demands of your applications.

Our wireless WAN for construction provides the fast deployment, high-capacity network needed to get your new sites up and running quickly and maximise productivity.

However, this speed of deployment should not come at the cost of security. Establishing proper levels of network security and central visibility from the outset will help protect your valuable data from cyber-attacks.

With Optimised Wireless Network Edge, your construction business can access the consistent, high level of service needed while enjoying the flexibility it offers for your evolving sites.

Wireless WAN for today’s construction companies

Optimised Wireless Network Edge (OWNE) is a hybrid wireless service solution that harnesses 4G, 5G and microwave networks alongside GEO and LEO (OneWeb) satellites to ensure a reliable, seamless service wherever your team, sites or devices are located. Even in remote areas where terrestrial coverage may be unavailable, OWNE has the agility to provide consistent connectivity.

Our multi-circuit technology and built-in enhanced active technology SD-WAN capability support high availability and optimal performance, ideal for your data-heavy applications and IoT processes. Our services' flexibility allows the connectivity to be deactivated and moved to other locations as required or used as a true infrastructure-diverse backup service.

We provide a bespoke managed service overlay with contractually agreed service level agreements and onsite maintenance support in every country and region across Europe.

Fast Deploy and Backup Connectivity for optimal productivity

When setting up new sites or moving locations, with our OWNE Fast Deploy Connectivity services and zero-touch provisioning, you can be connected to the network and operational in days. Our services do not require the physical cable infrastructure of terrestrial services that can take weeks to install, slowing progress and leading to delays. Instead, Fast Deploy Connectivity minimises the disruption of moving locations to enable your all-important deadlines to be met.

With this agility and speed of connection, OWNE Fast Deploy Connectivity is also ideal for temporary events, such as trade shows or short-term projects. Meanwhile, our scalable OWNE Backup Connectivity services ensure your devices, applications, and cloud infrastructure will continue to perform optimally even in the event of terrestrial infrastructure failure. Our integrated SD-WAN capability and link load balancing enable a seamless transition from the primary link to a secondary one should any service degradation occur, ensuring your critical application sessions are not compromised.
