Turnaround · Temporary connectivity

Outdoor wireless on site in 60 minutes.

Safe, secure, and reliable connectivity for scheduled maintenance and turnaround events — when thousands of workers, contractors, and devices converge on site.

Deploy in under 60 minutes · Thousands of users · Mission-critical sites

Turnaround challenges

The plant network was built for normal operations.
01

A sudden surge in temporary workforce and devices

02

Existing network capacity is limited or unavailable in shutdown areas

03

Safety, compliance, and real-time communication stay critical

04

Temporary video surveillance, access control, and monitoring are required

05

The deployment window is short and the project duration is defined

06

Multiple contractors and external stakeholders need secure access

Key capabilities

Rapid, secure, and reliable anywhere.

Rapid deployment

Complete setup in under 60 minutes once the mobile unit is in position. The network is live for the outage window, then it leaves with the crew.

High capacity

Supports thousands of concurrent users — contractors, tablets, radios, and sensors. Capacity grows with the workforce and the device count, then scales back when the turnaround demobilizes.

Multi-technology

Private 5G, outdoor Wi-Fi, LTE/5G, and satellite on the same deployment. Starlink is the primary and backup internet path, with cellular 4G/5G as the backup link.

Integrated security

Temporary video surveillance, access control, and a secure network for crews that do not belong on the plant LAN.

On-site operations center

A mobile command center with an on-site team, local servers for edge compute, and local storage for VMS, logs, and analytics.

Safe and compliant

Supports safety systems, real-time communication, and the regulatory requirements of a mission-critical industrial site.

Key outcomes

Keep your turnaround on schedule.

Temporary infrastructure for the people on site, the safety program, and production. It covers the peak and comes down when the window closes.

  • Minimize downtime during the turnaround
  • Real-time coordination and situational awareness
  • Stronger worker safety and compliance
  • Reliable, secure connectivity for every contractor
  • Cost-effective temporary infrastructure for a defined project
