Metals and Mining
Industry & CommerceWhen intense levels of noise, dirt and high temperatures meet in furnaces or open-pit mining, communication turns into a tedious task. This is where our rugged stations can provide crystal clear speech even at high volumes and therefore guarantees streamlined operation across the site or even larger networked areas. Peripheral equipment like mobile radio and PA systems integrates smoothly and ensures absolutely reliable communication without delay.
