Expanding Wireless Infrastructure in Challenging Environments

At iWAT LLC, we pride ourselves on our ability to support and facilitate the expansion of our clients’ technological infrastructure, regardless of the size or complexity of the project. Recently, we undertook a significant challenge that perfectly exemplifies our commitment to excellence and our ability to deliver tailored solutions for our clients.

The Challenge: Expanding Wireless Infrastructure in a Smelting Facility

We were approached by a client with a facility in Ohio that needed to expand their wireless infrastructure into a smelting facility. Smelting facilities present unique challenges due to their size, structure, 24 hour work schedule, and the presence of heavy machinery. Ensuring reliable wireless connectivity in such an environment requires meticulous planning, specialized equipment, and skilled technicians.

The Project: Four Evenings of High-Elevation Work

To meet the client’s needs, our team traveled to the site and spent four evenings working in the facility. The work was mostly conducted 30 feet in the air using man lifts. The key tasks included:

• Running Cables: We ran extensive cabling throughout the facility, ensuring that all areas would have access to the wireless network.
• Certifying Cables: Each cable was rigorously terminated, tested and certified to ensure it met the required standards and would provide reliable connectivity.
• Hanging Wireless Access Points: We strategically placed and mounted wireless access points throughout the facility to guarantee comprehensive coverage.

The Outcome: Reliable Wireless Connectivity

Despite the challenging conditions, our team successfully completed the project on time and on budget, providing the client with a robust and reliable wireless network. The expanded infrastructure now supports the facility’s operational needs, enhancing communication and efficiency.
