Mining operations depend on connectivity that works underground, across the pit and hundreds of kilometres from the nearest exchange. When it drops out, production stops.
SmileIndustrial designs, builds and supports the communication, monitoring and IT systems that keep mine sites running, with mine-inducted technicians who can be on the ground when you need them.
Mine sites present problems that standard networks are never designed to solve. Coverage has to reach underground and across open ground, equipment has to survive dust and vibration, and power is often nowhere near where the network needs to be.
We have spent more than a decade building remote connectivity in exactly these conditions, combining mesh, microwave, private LTE, satellite and bonded links into networks that stay up.
Every design accounts for the site as it actually operates, including the access constraints and the shift patterns of the people who rely on it.
From the first site survey through to ongoing monitoring and maintenance.
Kinetic mesh and leaky feeder networks that hold up underground, keeping crews, vehicles and monitoring systems connected below surface.
Point-to-point and point-to-multipoint links, private LTE and mesh coverage across pits, ROM pads, workshops and haul routes.
Satellite and multi-WAN bonded solutions for exploration camps, remote infrastructure and sites well outside fixed coverage.
Towers, masts, huts, SKIDS and solar trailer platforms designed, built and deployed to suit the site and its power constraints.
Visibility of pumps, generators, tanks, conveyors and environmental sensors without sending someone out to check.
Managed services across both environments, with a dedicated helpdesk, 24/7 monitoring and mine-inducted technicians on call.
Our technicians hold Standard 11 Queensland Mining Induction, so they can be on site without delay.
Dust, vibration, heat and distance are designed for from the outset, not discovered after handover.
From a helpdesk ticket to a tower build, the whole stack sits with one accountable team.
Qualified technicians and project specialists deployed directly to site, not subcontracted out.
Tell us where the site is, what it runs and where the network falls over, and we will scope the fix. Get in touch below, or call us on 1300 414 003.
