a vital role in enabling mission-critical operations and safeguarding against disruption.


Whatever the weather


These outdoor wireless deployments now operate in a huge variety of situations from agriculture and mining to utilities, transportation


and heating, ventilation, and air conditioning (HVAC), and as such, require seriously ruggedised enclosures to guarantee high levels of availability and reliability. Any downtime has the potential to significantly disrupt or halt operations that rely on consistent connectivity. Components are increasingly pushed out into remote locations to ensure connectivity across
