Rajant Corporation, the pioneer of Kinetic Mesh® wireless networks, and Crossover Distribution, a leading wireless solutions provider skilled in design and engineering expertise to support North America, together bring high-speed data, voice, and video using one network to underground mining at the working face. The latest video case study reflects the proof of concept at the NORCAT Underground Centre in Sudbury, Ontario (Canada). The success will also be displayed at this month’s MINExpo International in the Las Vegas Convention Center’s West Hall in Booth #10741 from September 24th to 26th.
Rajant’s Kinetic Mesh is underground mining’s one network for multiple applications:
Crossover Executive Vice President Darin Gibbons says, “A person walking around with a VHF radio can talk from the surface, or anywhere underground, throughout the network to a smartphone. What the Rajant network does, by extending that coverage into that part of the mine, is allow the worker to always be in contact and improve efficiencies because he’s not walking back periodically to talk back to the mine supervisor or other operations people. You get to use all these smartphone features underground where the workers are working.”

Identifying early the need for private network infrastructure that could effectively support fully mobile wireless communications in industrial settings, Rajant Corporation developed its patented Kinetic Mesh® technology—and in turn became the pioneer provider of the most adaptable, scalable, and readily deployed fully mobile network on the market today.
Rajant was established in October 2001, after founders Robert Schena and Paul Hellhake recognized the significant shortcomings in traditional wireless mesh technology, particularly when it came to mobile voice and data networks used by first responders. The Rajant team envisioned a new, more robust mesh technology that would allow these networks to be fully mobile and mobility-enabled, and operate reliably in even the most demanding environments. Enter the Rajant Kinetic Mesh® network.
