Lepanto Consolidated Mining Company<\/strong><\/p>\n

Situated at the mountainous area of Mankayan, Benguet, Lepanto has been at the forefront of the Philippine mining industry
\nfor more than 75 years. In its efforts to reinforce security in its mining site and augment operations, the company employed the
\nuse of Deliberant\u2019s APC Series radios to wirelessly connect additional and existing surveillance cameras to its network. Given the
\ncritical nature of security in a mining site, the company needed a compatible and much more efficient solution that would allow
\nfor low latency and can flexibly be used for either PTP (Point-to-Point) or PTMP (Point to Multipoint) links. Deemed as an ideal
\nand cost-effective alternative to fiber optic wired connection, the wireless equipment are concurrently used for data and voice
\nbackhaul, internet sharing and CCTV transmission to the benefit of its 1,000 employees.<\/p>\n

The Challenge<\/em><\/h3>\n

Deployment in a mountainous terrain is always a challenge<\/em>
\nwith the presence of tall trees that can obstruct clear line of<\/em>
\nsight and the foggy weather conditions during some hours of<\/em>
\nthe day. The established links covered areas from the General<\/em>
\nOffice Complex to Tubo Complex, Nayak, Sand and Gravel<\/em>
\nTower and the Mill area.<\/em><\/p>\n

Why Lepanto Chose Deliberant<\/h2>\n

\u2022 Low latency<\/em>
\n \u2022 High distance capability<\/em>
\n \u2022 Good scalability<\/em>
\n \u2022 Ideal for video and voice applications<\/em>
\n \u2022 Interference caused by nearby wireless radios easily managed<\/em>
\n \u2022 Outmatched Lepanto\u2019s existing radios in<\/em>
\n \u2022 terms of performance, stability and reliability<\/em>
\n[\/column]
\n[column md=”6″]
\nIn total, 19 links were established with up to 4 hops for each
\ncomplete link. Video transmission consumed 4 MB for each
\nAxis IP camera, streaming smoothly with no lag or freeze frame
\nduring viewing. Such is the capability of using Deliberant\u2019s
\nproprietary PTMP protocol called the iPoll, which enables maximum
\nbandwidth with the lowest possible latency, making it the
\nideal wireless connectivity tool for voice and video.
\nIn addition to being extremely fast and functional, the new Deliberant
\nOS has all the features required for the WISP community
\nincluding router and bridge modes, auto modulation, smart
\nauto-channel, internal UAM (captive portal), WDS (compatible
\nwith 3rd party equipment), VLAN\u2019s, virtual APs, traffic shaping,
\ntools such as antenna alignment, site survey and many more.
