Application Overview

Factories are difficult because metal cladding, high ceilings, racking and machinery create reflections and shadows. Coverage should follow work zones and process flow, not only total floor area. A directional donor antenna, a higher-power host and zoned indoor antennas are usually more effective than one high-power antenna in the centre of the hall.

Typical Installation Layout

A typical installation uses an outdoor donor antenna, a booster or fiber repeater, a distribution network and indoor service antennas.

  1. 1

    Survey the outdoor donor on the roof or a high exterior point; metal buildings often need a directional antenna.

  2. 2

    Install the host in a technical or electrical room with ventilation and protection from dust and heat.

  3. 3

    Distribute antennas by work zone, aisle and process area; use fiber or remote units for long or multi-building sites.

Installation notes

  • Check hazardous-area classification before selecting enclosures, antennas and cable glands.
  • Use ruggedized, IP-rated equipment in dusty or wash-down areas.
  • Keep service antennas away from sensitive machinery and confirm maintenance access.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can one host cover an entire factory?

Small factories can sometimes use one host, but large halls, multiple buildings or long cable runs usually need zoning, additional remote units or fiber distribution. The decision follows the coverage test and cable-loss budget.

Can the system be used in hazardous areas?

Only with equipment and installation methods suitable for the area classification. We can review the requirement, but the final selection must follow local electrical and safety rules.

How do you cover a metal building?

Start with a strong outdoor donor and a directional antenna, then distribute service antennas inside by work zone. Metal walls and roofs can block the donor signal, so the outdoor measurement is critical.
