3.3 Installation Schemes
The installation and placement of antennas and NS50 units will depend on the wireless coverage type,
rock type and tunnel topology. A few examples of installation schemes in a mine are described and
illustrated in the following sections.
3.3.1 Installation in a Straight Drive
• Two Yagi antennas are clamped to a mounting pole, which is chemically adhered into the mine roof.
• The antennas are positioned in opposite directions to provide long range wireless coverage.
• Each antenna is connected to a separate WAC in the NS50, or a Wi-Fi signal splitter can be used to
split the signal from one WAC in two directions.
• The network switch is cable tied to the rock mesh and connected to the composite cable that provides
power and network connectivity.
