Ericsson and Mobile TeleSyestems PJSC recently announced that it is implementing the Ericsson Dedicated Network solution to the EVRAZ digital Sheregeshskaya mine. This mine is located in South-Central Russia and the private network is set to be deployed for reliable connectivity. It also helps with overall bandwidth and big data applications that ultimately help with supporting safe working environments.
This is especially prominent in more remote environments that have challenges with connectivity. The Sheregeshskaya mine is a pilot area that began in 2020 to introduce technology that enhances industrial safety and improve production efficiency. Ericsson integrates the private network solution to the mine's current communication network and IT infrastructure. This features a video broadcasting, emergency notifications, positioning, dispatching, autonomous mining equipment control, and voice radio communication.
