Why Poynting for mining and tunnelling connectivity

Mining and tunnelling sites demand connectivity that keeps working when conditions get tough. Dust, vibration, confined spaces, heavy machinery, and long underground corridors can all degrade wireless performance. Above ground, remote locations and large site footprints often create coverage gaps that impact productivity and safety. 

Poynting Antennas are designed for these harsh environments. The range includes specialist options for underground and difficult mining conditions, as well as rugged high performance antennas for surface infrastructure. With solutions that support LTE, 4G, 5G, WiFi, and IoT connectivity, you can build more consistent links for voice and data, telemetry, monitoring, and remote machine control.

What this means for your site
• More stable voice and data connectivity in challenging underground spaces
• Improved coverage for access points, mesh nodes, and fixed infrastructure
• Rugged designs built for vibration, dust, and harsh exposure
• Better reliability for telemetry, automation, and operational visibility across the mine

Below are the antenna families commonly used across mining and tunnelling deployments. Each option targets a specific site requirement, underground coverage in confined spaces, ruggedised performance for harsh environments, stable omni coverage for fixed infrastructure, and integrated multi service connectivity for vehicles and mobile plant.
