Intelligent wireless coverage solutions in complex industrial environments

 Recently NTT based on Cisco's complete wired wireless integration solutions, to provide customers in the harsh and complex industrial environment of intelligent wireless integration solutions. The customer itself is a leading enterprise in the industry of producing chemical materials, and has been committed to the expansion and cooperation of its business in China for many years. As it has grown over the years, its manufacturing campus has expanded and relies on campus network coverage, including wired network in the offices and wireless network coverage throughout the workshops and warehouses. This time, the customer encountered the problem of wireless coverage in its new intelligent warehouse. - Difficulty in designing wireless coverage due to the difficulty of designing wireless coverage as it is a purpose-built warehouse and therefore the building structure has increased restrictions from a wireless coverage perspective. - The need for the relevant IT equipment to be able to provide explosion-proof and flame retardant characteristics and to be acid and alkali resistant due to the special nature of the materials stored in the depot. - Strict requirements for coverage quality and signal transmission quality, and the ability to cover the entire interior of the depot as well as the external perimeter within 200 meters without dead ends. - For safety reasons, the depot can only provide DC power supply. - The construction environment of the depot was complicated, and the project construction period was only 3 months. NTT combined with years of experience in serving industry customers and its own professional skills, through communication with the customer quickly identified the basic overall solution required by the customer, and timely communication with the Cisco support team and to provide the customer with an overall solution based on Cisco wireless campus network. In response to the business pain points raised by the customer NTT in conjunction with Cisco to provide solutions, and rely on NTT's integration capabilities to provide customers with one-stop turnkey project services: NTT provides customers with professional on-site expertise to provide a one-stop service. - NTT provides customers with professional on-site wireless coverage survey services, and through professional tools and customized services, develops accurate wireless layout coverage maps for customers, which serve as the basis for equipment selection and equipment purchase for the entire project, and provides customers with secondary surveys after project implementation to verify and optimize the original design; - Based on the wireless survey and actual requirements, NTT selected the equipment model with external antenna and signal gain function for the customer. - NTT and Cisco planned the IW-6300H series based on the customer's specific environmental requirements to adapt to the complex working conditions. - DC-powered models were selected for this project. - NTT and Cisco team initiated a supply chain optimization mechanism in the early stage of the project to prepare the customer to deliver the project on time, and NTT provided project management services to the customer to coordinate the business progress of the project participants and ensure business quality. The project also enabled the visual management of the wireless network through the DNA controller and the unified management and maintenance of the entire campus wireless network through the Catalyst 9800 controller by interfacing the customer's new warehouse network with the existing campus network and relying on the Yuan-only DNA architecture, which improved management efficiency and reduced maintenance complexity without adding additional human resource burden due to the expansion of network coverage. NTT also makes full use of the remote delivery center built in China to provide customers with infrastructure-based event management and maintenance services, fully guaranteeing customers' goal of simplifying the complexity of operations and maintenance in dealing with daily production and work, fully releasing IT support departments to devote more energy to the work of enterprise digital innovation to release the expert capabilities of IT and help enterprises put their digital strategy into practice.
