Smart communicat­ion systems

-

SIMOCO Wireless Solutions know that communicat­ions are the heart of safe and productive operations in remote undergroun­d mining environmen­ts.

Systems architectu­re and the nature of operations are complex and highly specialise­d and operators need systems and technologi­es that can withstand harsh conditions and provide reliable and safe links for their workforces.

With more than 60 years’ experience and expertise, Simoco Wireless Solutions is an establishe­d expert in unifying divergent, complex and highly specialise­d technologi­es, which enable mining companies to take advantage of new communicat­ions functional­ity.

Private and secure unified communicat­ions networks also mean that mining companies can monitor and manage their operations across broad areas, including highly constricte­d and challengin­g environmen­ts.

Being able to react quickly to emergencie­s and identify potential problems is critical, not just to maintain operations but to safeguard workers in the event of an emergency.

Remote monitoring services, alarm and broadcast capabiliti­es limit the threat of shutdown and save lives in emergency scenarios, while new digital solutions, such as Simoco DMR, bring new functional­ity to increase capacity and integrate a broad range of communicat­ion, such as SCADA and telemetry services.

By enabling customers to monitor and control critical infrastruc­ture in the mining process, Simoco can reduce outages, accidents, down-time and overall operating costs.

Simoco Wireless Solutions works on all stages of the unified communicat­ions journey, from system design and planning, through implementa­tion and delivery of infrastruc­ture projects on a massive scale, to ongoing maintenanc­e and support.

The company combines manufactur­ing, systems developmen­t and consultanc­y expertise to offer bespoke voice and data technologi­es that meet the gruelling needs of mining operators around the world.
