Our product · MCR
Mobile Communications Rooms
The Mobile Communications Room is a purpose-built comms room, as functional as any corporate office, sealed inside a sea container. It carries its own power system, air conditioning, wiring, insulation and racking, so it can be deployed before a single site office exists and lifted out when the project ends.
Dust free, sealed, cool and independent of the surrounding buildings. Pre-configured in a controlled environment, transported by standard container logistics and craned straight onto a prepared frame.
Why an MCR
Why use an MCR
IT project managers deploying networks to remote sites need a reliable network, timely WAN and cabling services, infrastructure that adapts to the site, and costing they can budget against. The MCR was designed to meet those requirements.
Rapid turnaround
The MCR is pre-built. Network and server equipment can be installed and configured in the room before shipping, which reduces specialist IT site attendance and labour costs. Carriers have a connection point from the start, and partial cabling can be installed during camp construction so voice and data are available immediately.
Quality
The MCR is constructed in a controlled environment using quality materials and workmanship that is not always available in the field. Conditioned power with lightning and high-voltage surge suppression protects all room equipment, and one-device power circuits reduce the chance of a faulty device disabling the system.
Convenient
There is one connection point for power, and the unit can run from a generator. Because it is self-contained there is no dependency on other construction schedules. The WAN can be installed and the network made operational during construction, giving the carrier a stable, air-conditioned place to terminate services.
Flexibility
Each MCR is purpose built to individual needs. The cabling connection system allows outlets to be added or removed without interrupting existing users. The electrics disconnect at an external junction box and the data plant at an intermediate frame, so the unit can be relocated locally, interstate or internationally using standard container transport.
Green
The room's insulation gives it a low heat signature, so the air conditioning runs at minimal load. Solar panels can be added to the single-phase configuration. The MCR is reusable in its entirety and can be returned or relocated to another project, eliminating waste.
Costing
An MCR can be purchased outright or hired weekly or monthly. Costing is structured per unit size, per components and per outlet so the project can budget against its own timelines.
