The network has given mine owner the flexibility to operate CCTV security and access control systems over a single network infrastructure.
G4S initially commissioned Datasat Communications to install wireless CCTV nodes at three sites around the mine. During the installation period, it became clear that the infrastructure allowed the mine owner to connect its new access control system - based on card reader and fingerprint recognition technologies from the sites to a central management hub at another mine site. The wireless infrastructure was easily redesigned for the high availability requirements of the new service. As the access control server has to continually authenticate the on-site access points, the network needed to be extremely reliable and secure.
JC Grobbelaar, Director of Security Solutions, G4S says - “Wireless infrastructure is an excellent and cost-effective solution to add connectivity quickly to remote mining locations. The Datasat network has given us another benefit. It is very, very flexible. We found its ability to allow us to add a completely new and unspecified service to the network, at almost no cost, very impressive. Datasat Communications brings a high level of quality to everything they do. The wireless infrastructure had been pre-built and tested so on-site roll-out was very straightforward,”
