Mobile Signal Boosters for Factories & Warehouses

Boost Mobile Signal in Factories & Warehouses

How To Boost Mobile Signal in a Large Factory

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.

Effects of Metal on Mobile Signal

Boosting Mobile Signal Strength in Factories: How It Works

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.

TESTIMONIAL

What Our Clients Are Saying

“The MSS team were very proactive and professional at all times through the project. There was a large manufacturing site with limited to no signal across two floors and they managed to install and complete the work within 5 days safely and with excellent results! I would recommend using this company for any project big or small.”
