Setting Up & Managing IT Equipment/Internet Access in Camps

Setting Up & Managing IT Equipment/Internet Access in Camps

Construction sites require quick and flexible connectivity even before the start of a project and the use of multimedia, bandwidth intensive applications, such as Unified Voice over IP, perimeter surveillance, document sharing and more, all of which drives the demand for increased bandwidth.

Also construction site offices and management are reliant on access to their central databases and systems and communications with personnel on and off site. They therefore require fast and secure connectivity always.

With potential for there to be large amounts of people on the site using the connection, it’s essential to invest in a robust solution that can handle the bandwidth requirements necessitated by sharing of documents such as CAD and DWG files and VoIP functionality.

Combining industry standard off-the-shelf technology with cutting edge developments in telecommunication, KR Limited provides reliable, high performance integrated communication solutions for construction camps.

A wireless networking solution delivers a reliable temporary connection, powering the site to full speed right from the start and giving remote sites immediate access to their centralized back-office systems and applications.

However, permanent and reliable internet is designed to be delivered through fibre optics service which provides far faster speeds than conventional copper based ADSL services, meeting connection speeds of up to 80Mbps download and 20Mbps upload and KR Limited boost of reliable partners that provides such uninterrupted and reliable service across the country.

And through business class satellite link for any location that fibre optic cabling services finds hard to reach providing speeds up to 30mb download and 12mb upload, while wifi/wireless solutions are then used as fail-over options.

We are in partnership with renowned telecommunication equipment vendors, with sales and supply agreements that assure provisioning of spares at construction camp equipment room always.

While we also have a standard of maintaining shifts amongst our IT personnel to ensure that 24/7 support is available at camp sites.

We do a conceptual design of a telecommunications equipment container for all camp set ups and this is based on the topography, serviceability, human-product interaction, energy consumption and the interrelationship with other containers in any given camp. This telecommunication container will serve the following primary goals;

  • Serve as telecommunication hub in the group of containers that are in the camp.
  • Support the communication needs of all personnel and stakeholders in the camp.
  • Offer a comfortable environment for the IT team.
