The units address the need to provide communications rapidly and to move the communications on quickly to the next site once a job is done. They provide rapid deployment of a secure private GSM network to enable immediate coverage at new construction sites, avoiding the delays typically experienced while traditional phone lines are installed. Calls between users on site do not incur call charges and a 6 month ROI is typical.
The GSM rapid deployment unit (RDU) is a plug and play unit; it takes less than 5 minutes to power up and provides coverage within open spaces of up to 500m radius unidirectional for site personnel. It is ideal for difficult sites where underground coverage is required, or where the steel frame or glass walling of the building infrastructure may affect the performance of standard mobile network signals. The GSM traffic can also be used to communicate with other sites and supplies over broadband IP network connections.
The network uses standard mobile phones that have been registered to the private network, ensuring other phones can not connect without approval. The unit is either battery or mains powered with over 4 hours standby. The link back into the public network can be made through the PSTN, satellite or line of site equipment. The unit contains an FXO Gateway as standard with the option to have a satellite router.
