Underground mines

Reliable connectivity in harsh environments

Managing equipment and enhancing personnel safety in an underground mine requires robust communications in an environment where cable installation is problematic and radio wave propagation is limited by tunnel topology. ACKSYS offers a highly available WiFi infrastructure solution tailored to the unique requirements of underground mining environments, providing seamless connectivity, intelligent deployment and enhanced protection against interference.

Comprehensive coverage for data exchange and control

For efficient data exchange, remote control and voice communications with the control room, ACKSYS solutions guarantee uninterrupted communication (thanks to features designed to meet the specific needs of underground operations) as well as comprehensive coverage of the underground mine.

Points forts
Transparent connectivity
  • Fast Roaming (< 30 ms): Ensures uninterrupted communication even as devices move around the mine, maintaining a stable connection.
  • High Bandwidth (up to 200 Mbps): Supports video, voice, data and remote control applications, ensuring that all critical operations can be managed efficiently.
Ease of deployment
  • Flexible architecture: ACKSYS’ devices are suitable for ground or embedded use, supporting the roles of access point (AP), bridge, MESH point and repeater to suit a variety of deployment scenarios.
  • Wide Power Input (24-110 VDC): Allows the use of long DC cables, accommodating power variations and ensuring reliable operation in the demanding underground environment.
  • Compatibility: Ensures seamless integration with existing WiFi devices and infrastructure, maximizing the usefulness of existing investments.
Resistance to underground mining conditions
  • Durability: IP66 products, M12 connectors, wide temperature range (-25°C to +80°C)
  • Standards compliance: They meet ISO 11452 and EN 61373 standards, guaranteeing resilience and reliability in industrial applications.
  • Explosive environments: ACKSYS also offers products for hazardous areas (ATEX / IECEx).
