BRINGING WORLDWIDE HOME

GLOBAL MINING COMMUNICATIONS SPECIALIST STRATA WORLDWIDE HAS ITS EYE ON MAKING THE AUSTRALIAN MINING SECTOR SAFER.

- 

Those who have dropped a call while driving through a tunnel may begin to understand the unique challenges underground mining communications present.

But with heavy equipment hauling rocks in tight spaces, unreliable connection in an underground mine can have bigger repercussions than hanging up on a family member; in fact, the consequences can be deadly.

This is a challenge with which Strata Worldwide is familiar. The company specialises in taking mine-critical technologies and developing them to function underground.

Strata has a range of communications and networking products it either developed from scratch, brought on through acquisitions, or distributes from its sites across Australia.

One such product is its Vernetzen Wi-Fi over Coax technology, which Strata globally supports and distributes.

This is backed by the Veto range of network analysis tools, which enables a mine's network to be assessed for operational technology compatibility.
