Becker Releases Smartethernet, A Leaker Feeder Solution

Becker mining systems as an international mining company has recently announced a revolutionary new product for underground networks known as the smartethernet. The new Ethernet solution works through leaker feeder infrastructure to deliver communications without having to integrate new lines. The benefits of these latest smartethernet is the ability to place it into the leaker feeder infrastructure and integrate a new form of data based technology to operations throughout a mining site. The entire system is easy to install and offers a high speed Ethernet solution for a mine without the added expense of integration.

Installing high speed Ethernet in an affordable manner will ensure that clients can use data based tech in any aspect of their operations. Customers appreciate the new system and its reliability and it can also offer a massive cost savings for clients as well. The system introduces three units including the controller, e point and amplifier which is equipped with an Ethernet repeater. The system will extend the distance of the eithernet considerably and offer its controller a lead into communications for the future of a mining business.

Having Ethernet integrated into a mining site can be crucial for communications in the mine, equipment and staff tracking, controlling mining equipment and for monitoring IP cameras. Control points in the smartethernet are fed along a series of ports for clients to connect devices in the field. A worker could easily connect up a laptop or diagnose a piece of equipment with an Ethernet port at any point in the mining site. Having these ports can be crucial to maintaining quality communications and ensuring that staff are able to get extended system distance improvements. The clarity of Ethernet ensures that a team is able to have an extended level of clarity in communications and data sharing. The network will manage all points easily and offer a huge cost savings for any business that is interested in establishing better data flow in mining.

Becker’s ethernet mining solution over the leaky feeder system will ensure that data based technology can be added to mining operations across the world and in the most hostile environments. Some of the top advantages of this system include being able to offer more tools to your workers in the field, enhancements to safety, improvements to efficiency and monitoring and the option to capture more data points which can shape the future of your business. No matter what type of underground mining you normally work on, these solutions can be a huge cost benefit and safety improvement for your future.

The Importance of An Underground Radio Communication System

The Importance of An Underground Radio Communication System

A underground radio communication system is used in large industrial plants and in mining sites. This form of underground communication is responsible for establishing a communication between two points and for building an industrial communication system. These items provide a standard method for connecting individuals without radio interference or any form of equipment failure. The devices will manage a plant wide level of communication and a standard that is divided into five main parts to ensure every aspect of the business communication can be retained.

The five main parts include a radio interference and protocol stack, a command-and-control center based segmentation, VHF transmission system and UHF transmission system for a large-scale operation. This entire communication center takes place underground with wireless communications created by our company. Various wireless devices are linked together through a network and communications can run along power lines and control systems to coordinate any activity. 

An underground radio system remains extremely important because it needs to work highly efficiently to avoid any form of interference issue throughout communication. It’s necessary to use efficiency with this type of underground radio system and to have a system that prevents radio interference equipment failure. 

The underground radio system is extremely important because the radio spectrum underground can be quite scarce. Traditional walkie-talkies will not work in these environments and having some form of network to prevent interference is crucial to maintaining communications. Radio signals are immune to physical disturbances such as temperature and humidity but the heavy rock environments of mining sites and even large concrete structures in industry can be difficult for radio communications. 

The system of an underground radio network will use a series of base stations and remote terminals to deliver a radio signal over a UHF band or VHF band. The controls provide immediate transmission media at every level and protocols of the radio band that are not disrupted by heavy rock or dance items. Protocol is used to deliver real-time voice services which are not interrupted and it can improve safety across a mining site or industrial complex.

Our system uses the leaky feeder communications method that is time-tested to deliver modern day communication. Installation can take place along the existing underground installation and with a set of shielded and twisted pair cables that do not require grounding.

If you are interested in learning more about industrial underground radio communication systems or if you would like to learn more about these systems for your own business, contact us today. We can outfit your business with the best quality of communication for your underground network and to manage even in difficult conditions across your business. We can integrate these systems with your current leaky feeder lines and offer you the best in support for your business coordination.
