Wi‑Fi and LTE operational networks create a connected digital environment for:
— Online monitoring of production processes
— Instant access to data on equipment operation, logistics, condition of sites
— Stable communication for security and video surveillance systems
— Operation of unmanned equipment and its remote control
— Control of the implementation of the production plan, optimization of routes, prevention of downtime;
— Integration of remote sites: administrative buildings, factories, warehouses, checkpoints, repair shops
— Introduction of digital twins that simulate and predict production processes.
The main technological challenges in 2025 come from growing demand for:
— IoT devices
— AI
— Autonomous equipment
These systems depend on continuous data exchange between equipment, sensors, and control platforms, real-time processing, and low latency.
Automation improves productivity and decision-making, while autonomous BelAZ haul trucks also make safety critical. Equipment must continuously assess changing conditions and stop when a potential conflict occurs. Reliable operational connectivity supports this process.
Connectum’s portfolio includes 130 km² of open-pit mines equipped with Wi‑Fi and connected to dispatch systems. Field testing across many projects has built expertise that both operators and vendors now seek. Our industrial solutions presentation is available here.
