A Wireless Revolution at the largest mining company in the UAE

One of the largest quarrying companies in the world which has the capacity to produce and sell a high volume of high-quality minerals is based in the UAE. The sites operated by this Company has reserves estimated at around 4.5 billion tonnes. Their output , individually tailored to customer’s requirements , has been produced consistently and reliably.

In line with the objectives of modernising and digitalizing the operations , Wavesight through its partner Covansys Technologies , based in the UAE, recently completed a ground-breaking project , providing wireless connectivity and deploying Wi-Fi to an area of their site located remotely . A Wi-Fi zone using Dragonfly products ( Wi-Fi 6) in a mesh network configuration was deployed over a 4 Km radius. All connected to a fibre termination point located 5 Miles away with the help of Firefly PtP radios capable of transmitting upto 500 Mbps of data.

This solution empowers the site with secure connectivity, enabling seamless operation of Iot devices. By strategically placing external antennas, we optimized signal strength and coverage, ensuring network performance across the entire zone.
