About the Client
Oakridge Manufacturing is a mid-sized metal fabrication company based in Ohio. With more than 150 employees working over the production floor, warehouse, and administrative wing, smooth communication is essential to keep operations running efficiently.
The Problem
Oakridge Manufacturing struggled with weak cellular reception all over their main building. The facility’s metal structure and distance from the nearest cell tower causes dropped calls, poor data speeds, and irresponsible communication between departments. Supervisors often had to go outside to make important calls, and delivery coordination was commonly delayed due to unstable signals.
These disruptions affected daily workflow, delayed updates from delivery partners, and created unnecessary downtime. After several failed attempts to resolve the issue by switching carriers, Oakridge decided to look for a professional, long-term solution.
The Solution: A Custom Commercial Cell Booster Installation
To solve the problem, Maximum Communications executed a detailed on site survey to identify weak spots and design a system that would deliver strong and stable coverage all over the entire building.
Roof Antennas Installation
Our team installed high gain donor antennas on the facility’s rooftop to capture the strongest available signals. The placement was improved to make sure consistent reception for all major carriers.
Signal Booster System
We set up a powerful commercial-grade signal booster in the main equipment room. This allowed the captured signals to be amplified and redistributed equally across the property.
Indoor Antenna Network
Dome and panel antennas were installed in offices, production areas, and the warehouse. This ensured no dead zones were left behind and allowed employees to enjoy stable signal strength everywhere.
Cable and System Integration
All components were connected using low-loss coaxial cables. The system was neatly united with the existing infrastructure without disrupting daily operations. The entire installation took two business days.
Results
Once the commercial cell signal booster system was activated, Oakridge experienced a clear and immediate improvement in call quality and data speed. Employees could make and receive calls without interruption, even in the deepest sections of the facility. Real time communication with suppliers and drivers improved, and delays caused by poor reception were removed. The company also reported better workflow and few missed calls from clients.
Benefits of Commercial Cell Boosters
- Stable and reliable cell signal across the entire building.
- Stronger data speeds for real-time communication.
- Improved productivity through reduce delays.
- Better coordination between departments and partners.
Final Outcome
The upgraded connectivity transformed Oakridge Manufacturing’s communication network. Which was once a daily struggle with weak signals turned into a perfect system that supported operations at every level. With the new commercial cell booster solution, the company can now focus on growth and efficiency, not signal problems.
