Enterprise Wireless

Day 1 Connectivity
Greenfield sites

5G wireless is the answer for agile and secure enterprise-grade day 1 connectivity.

It eliminates the delays in provisioning fixed connectivity. A wireless WAN can be quickly redeployed to another location if required. This flexibility makes wireless a more attractive option for sites that will have a known short duration.

In Australia we have seen examples of this use case during the bushfires to power temporary evacuation centres and during Covid19 lockdowns to securely connect pop-up testing stations. In the construction industry, 5G can be used to power on-site offices, sensors and cameras from day 1.

Wireless WAN
Temporary sites

Having the agility to move the 5G access point as a site evolves, or in the case of road and rail construction to move it as the construction shifts is a bonus. 

No wires means no digging hazard. Wires are also vulnerable to site flooding and heavy vehicles/equipment.

When a construction site is ready for handover, simply reconfigure your 5G gateway device and shift it and antenna to the next location.

High Bandwidth
Edge Computing IOT

Construction businesses are increasingly working with very large data sets for richer visualisation, real-time surveillance, and IOT sensor edge processing.

Add in new technologies, such as virtual and augmented reality (AR), and 5G is fast becoming the go-to enabler of higher bandwidth, low-latency broadband.

This is not some 'pie-in-the-sky' theoretical use case but is actually happening with progressive Australian construction companies right now.

Low Latency
Smart sensors

As 5G continues to enable increasing data volumes, not everything will be able to be done in the cloud. It will require some of the computing to be done on-site with edge computing and mobile edge computing on 5G networks. Proximity to data at its source is extremely necessary in construction.

In time, it will be possible  to sensor virtually anything on a worksite, allowing companies to collect data from tools and materials.

Sensors are already being used in concreting to assess cure time. With smart building IoT sensors and 5G, contractors can create a digital twin of the building with data from the very start of the project throughout its life.

MobileCorp Professional Deployment

Trust MobileCorp with your Enterprise Wireless construction connectivity solution. We are Australia's leading Cradlepoint 5G/LTE partner and a Telstra 5G specialist partner. We have deployed some of Australia's first Enterprise Wireless networks and are currently deploying 5G access solutions at the Western Sydney Airport construction site. These are the four steps to a successful 5G deployment.

Desktop
and Onsite Survey 

The 5G network continues to in-fill with increased small cell density, however each site will need to be investigated to ensure 5G is a viable access technology onsite. LTE/5G is also a future-proofed solution.

Essential 8 Cyber Security

Essential 8 is the Australian cyber security framework that is endorsed by the ACSC as the minimum cyber security standard for industry.  MobileCorp offers two Essential 8 solutions to audit, remediate, and provide an uplift to your cyber security posture.

  • Construction is a key target vertical for cyber attacks aimed at obtaining information and/or commercial advantage. 
  • Construction companies risk enormous commercial loss and liability for delays to projects due to cyber attack.
  • Cyber attacks may compromise confidential business information or result in unauthorised access to project, plant, data and specifications.
  • Construction relies on Internet of Things devices for asset tracking, worksite security, machine control, wearable technology and this increases the attack vector.
  • more. This interconnected approach—along with surveillance devices like IP cameras and GPS-connected drones, and a lack of industry cyber defense—has resulted in a serious rise in successful cyber attacks. Construction companies also rely on associations with third parties—such as subcontractors—making them even more vulnerable.
