The challenge
Rural jobsites and a vendor that was not fixing it
Many of the contractor’s projects sit in rural areas where cell service is weak or missing, and trailers still need to run schedules, plans and video calls.
The existing vendor was not solving it, and every new site raised the same survey and installation questions.
The solution
High-gain cellular plus low-earth-orbit satellite
SimpleCom surveyed each site and combined high-gain cellular antennas with satellite service, so trailers have more than one path to the internet.
Site survey
Signal and sky view checked before equipment goes up.
High-gain antennas
Pull usable cellular signal from farther away.
Satellite service
Low-earth-orbit dish mounted on the trailer for a second path.
Central management
Every device monitored in one platform, including live weather alerts.
The result
Trailers online wherever the job goes
The contractor now brings reliable connectivity to rural sites as part of standing up a trailer, with SimpleCom monitoring every device from one platform.
