NTT has recently built on Cisco's comprehensive wired wireless integration solutions to provide customers with intelligent wireless integration solutions in harsh and complex industrial environments. The customer itself is a leading manufacturer of chemical materials and has been committed to expanding its business and cooperation in China for many years. Over the years, the production campus has expanded and relied on the campus network coverage, including wired network in the office and wireless network coverage in the warehouse. The customer had a problem with wireless coverage in their new smart warehouse. - The building structure was limited from the wireless coverage point of view due to the use of the renovated warehouse, which made it difficult to design the wireless coverage. - Due to the special nature of the materials stored in the warehouse, the IT equipment needed to be explosion-proof, flame retardant, and resistant to acids and alkalis. - Strict requirements on coverage quality and signal transmission quality, and the ability to cover the entire interior of the warehouse and the surrounding 200 meters without dead ends. - For safety reasons, the warehouse can only be supplied with direct current for power supply. - The construction environment of the warehouse was complicated and the project construction period was only 3 months. NTT combined years of experience in serving customers in the industry and its own expertise to quickly identify the basic total solution required by the customer through communication with the customer, and communicated with the Cisco support team in a timely manner to provide the customer with a total solution based on the Cisco wireless campus network. To address the business pain points raised by the customer NTT and Cisco provided solutions for each of them, and relied on NTT's integration capabilities to provide customers with one-stop turnkey project services. - NTT provides customers with professional on-site wireless coverage survey services, through professional tools and customized services for customers to create accurate wireless layout coverage map, as the basis for the selection of equipment and the number of equipment purchased for the entire project, and provide customers with a secondary survey after the implementation of the project, in order to check and optimize the original design; - NTT selected the equipment model with external antenna and signal gain for the customer based on the wireless survey and actual requirements. - NTT and Cisco combined with the customer's specific environmental needs to plan a product model based on the IW-6300H series for the customer to adapt to complex working conditions. - The DC-powered model was selected. - NTT and Cisco team initiated the 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 coordinate the business progress of the project participants and ensure business quality. By interfacing the customer's new warehouse network with the existing campus network, and relying on the only DNA architecture, the project also realized 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, which improved the management efficiency and reduced the complexity of maintenance without increasing the burden of human resources due to the expansion of network coverage. NTT has also made full use of its remote delivery center in China to provide customers with infrastructure-based event management and maintenance services, fully safeguarding customers' goals of simplifying the complexity of operations and maintenance in daily production and work, and fully releasing IT support departments to devote more energy to the work of enterprise digital innovation, releasing IT's expert capabilities and helping enterprises implement their digitalization strategies.
