Where are communications critical?
Access to high-quality communications is critical to a range of industries. Effective management of roads, forestry, transport, especially unmanned, remote industrial facilities without modern types of communications is impossible.
Given the size of our country, with its vast remote territories, the issue becomes especially important.

Maintenance
The radio complex operates maintenance-free for almost 20 years, which allows placing powerful batteries underground.

Modularity
The radio complex is entirely configurable to the requirements and capabilities of the customer, taking into account climatic and geographical conditions. You can choose a simplified version – a concrete pole with a mounted payload, while solar panels are placed horizontally on the ground.

Security
The complex is protected from unauthorized access: batteries, as well as control equipment are located underground in a special caisson, solar panels are vandal-proof, and the tower is equipped with video surveillance and alarm system.

To date, the most common solution for ensuring communications in remote regions is to install a standard base station powered by a diesel generator. Such station is easier and cheaper to install, however it requires constant maintenance and regular overhaul, generators are often stolen and fuel is drained. The autonomous radio complex developed by NIIR can operate for up to 20 years almost without maintenance, which makes it more economically beneficial in the long run (with virtually no operating costs).
In mass production, the capital costs for installation of the complex are covered within 4-5 years. The complex is also protected from unauthorized access: batteries, as well as control equipment are located underground in a special caisson, solar panels are vandal-proof, and the tower is equipped with video surveillance and alarm system.
