Power Energy Operations with Reliable Cellular Connectivity

Highway 9 Mobile Cloud ensures site-wide coverage for energy operations, combining the resilience and performance of private mobile networks with streamlined cloud management and secure IT/OT separation.

Connectivity Challenges within Energy Sites

Energy sites like refineries and power stations face connectivity challenges due to their vast, complex structures. For example: In oil and gas, large facilities require numerous Wi-Fi access points for extensive connectivity. Heavy metals in refineries and drilling sites often hinder Wi-Fi signals, leading to unreliable connectivity. It’s also critical to secure IT/OT separation for uninterrupted energy operations.

Coverage issues 

Refineries and power stations face connectivity challenges due to their size and structure.

Network latency delays 

Low latency is essential for real-time systems to prevent inefficiencies and failures.

Secure IT/OT separation  

Separating IT from OT is crucial to protect data and ensure reliability in critical operations.
