RADIO COMMUNICATIONS

In any emergency, instant voice or data communications are essential. Government departments, utility providers and resource sectors require uninterrupted communications between remote sites, corporate offices and production or processing areas. Acubis deploys Terrestrial Trunked Radio (TETRA) technology utilising our wireless and remote communication expertise. Our integrated TETRA networks provide robust, fail-safe, secure and cost effective communication solutions to enhance safety and increase operational efficiencies.

PROVEN TECHNOLOGY TETRA was designed to operate in extreme conditions that require highly reliable, robust and resilient equipment and systems. TETRA is a powerful tool that delivers narrowband and broadband mission critical voice and data communications for demanding users, achieving extended coverage through distribution networks and minimum base stations. Adopted by over 160 countries worldwide, TETRA is used in mining, utilities, transportation, power generation, defence and emergency services sectors.

TETRA IP NETWORKTETRA is a digital professional mobile radio (PMR) technology that operates at relatively few frequencies among a large group of users to deliver secure and high quality voice services. TETRA also provides outstanding data capabilities, far superior to conventional analogue systems. The sophisticated system design and intelligent architecture provides flexibility and seamless integration with existing site infrastructure. Compared to traditional mobile networks, TETRA can be rapidly deployed and provides one of the most cost effective solutions for mission critical voice and data services. Organisations can connect across radio networks from various vendors and transfer from analogue to digital without the need to invest in expensive new network infrastructure. TETRA’s ability to deliver mission critical communications when public or private networks are unavailable, makes it vital in emergency situations.

Acubis’s experienced team customise solutions to suit your site’s communication needs. We work with you to design your two way radio network so it can evolve as your site expands. Acubis partner with leading suppliers to ensure our systems are designed at minimal cost. We create integrated communications across multiple sites and centralised operating centres to improve your productivity and site safety.

INFRASTRUCTURE AND HARDWARE

▪ Security End to end encryption hardware, two way authentication and high transmission security at the air-interface

▪ Voice quality Loud and distinct audio, with outstanding clarity, even in noisy work areas

▪ Extended data and services (TEDS) Delivers wide area, mission critical services

▪ Radio frequency coverage Maintains audio quality over greater distances including underground

▪ Fail-safe operationWalkie-talkie style operation should networks fail or become unavailable

▪ Spectrum efficiency & secure group voice 4 channels per 25kHz carrier band provides 4 times the efficiency of analogue and enables separate group conversations to occur simultaneously

We connect all network components – including base stations, dispatchers, network management tools, external gateways and other applications to suit your site specific needs. We consider maximum system flexibility, rugged performance, reliable and fail-safe communication, unlimited application integration, intuitive and user-friendly interface and effortless interoperability. Acubis rely on trusted vendors to deliver specialist radio products, support tools and accessories. We select light weight designs and omni-directional antennas for improved coverage and performance. The resulting network can easily be scaled to literally hundreds of sites without using any central switch.

PROJECT EXAMPLESAcubis has successfully designed and implemented dozens of digital wireless networks for data, voice and video across Queensland and New South Wales, including the following. Designed, constructed and actively maintains two Tetra networks on mine sites in Queensland’s Bowen Basin and The Hunter Valley in NSW. Delivered a holistic managed service, including voice, video and telemetry, to meet the customer’s communication needs - across all their sites, Australia wide. Designed and installed wireless networks at multiple mining operations – some hundreds of kilometres apart. The results of the project delivered a high speed wireless network infrastructure
