Mobile Signal Boosters for Factories & Warehouses

There are two main system types to boost the mobile network signal in a factory. For factories that are up to 25,000 square meters a DAS system is usually employed, this uses multiple antennas that each cover approx, 800 square meters of open space and are connected back to a central amplifier via low loss cables installed in the factory cable trays.

The second system is for very large areas where the dimensions are up to 300,000 square meters. This is powered by network grade units which in turn connect to multiple coverage units that distribute the signal across the factory.  These are suitable for large open areas where each coverage unit is deployed to cover up to 5,000 square meters. These coverage units can be deployed via the existing Cat 5 cable or can have a new cable laid, the distance from the main amplifier to each coverage is limited to 150m without an approved signal extender, with extenders it can do 300m from the base units.  This is a bespoke designed system that can help very large organisations improve signal without disruption to the factory floor as the system covers large areas per antenna.

Is your business suffering from poor mobile signal across your factory? We can provide full signal for all UK networks across your entire premises. Here are 5 ways you can boost mobile signal for factories to help: 

1. Eliminate potential health and safety issues where staff may need help and have no signal.
2. Make sure staff, including management are contactable in all areas of the factory floor.
3. Visitors to the factory will have access to their mobile calls and perhaps be able to make faster decisions.
4. App and software that is mobile based will work across the entire factory improving productivity.
5. Back up to any existing broadband as the system will be both voice, 4G and 5G ready.

Difficulties in communication between vital members of staff can lead to expensive mistakes on the shop floor or increase lag time in fulfilling orders. Removing the issue with an MSS signal booster is the first step to a healthier, safer and more profitable workplace.

Modern factories and warehouses are often constructed using high grade metal and concrete, which acts as a Faraday cage, preventing signal from penetrating the building. This is why staff and visitors to your location often find the signal diminishes when they enter the building. In order to be able to boost mobile signal for factories in the UK you need to use an Ofcom compliant signal boosting system.

Working with our professional installation team, we place an outdoor antenna on the roof of your building, which will be connected to indoor antennas and your signal booster inside the building through a network of high grade cable. This will pull signal into the building, leaving you with guaranteed signal and a happier workforce.
