Oil and Gas Solutions

Critical infrastructure industries (CIIs) need the support of advanced communications technologies that enable automation, control and data acquisition:

• Monitoring and managing equipment remotely
• Accessing critical data remotely

Our Trailblazer Star and LongHaul TDM systems are excellent solutions for remote, temporary IP data and telephone links for oil fields, pipelines and offshore rig communications.

Remote monitoring is a popular application for our Trailblazer Hybrid systems.

TV White Space for Rugged Terrain

Miles of rural and rugged territory to cover? Sea paths and water reflections weakening your microwave signal? TV white space is the answer.

Carlson's new TV white-space radio, RuralConnect, works without line of sight to offer the capacity and reliability that the oil and gas industries require.

TV white space technology, often called "Super Wi-Fi," offers an abundance of unlicensed spectrum whose signal can penetrate almost any obstacle, from trees to walls. Best of all, UHF signal propagates well over water, unaffected by reflections.

This new technology, which uses available TV spectrum for broadband, could dramatically affect the future of critical infrastructure industries (CIIs) such as gas, pipeline, utilities, power generation and water industries.

Using TV white space spectrum, SCADA applications can be vastly improved, upgrades deployed very economically and IP-based technologies implemented throughout operations. Find out more about TV white space technology.
