Full Optical 5G Network Construction Solution for Coal Mine Park

With the continuous advancement of technology and the transformation and upgrading of the coal industry, the construction of smart mines has become an important direction for industry development. Against this backdrop, the construction of a full optical 5G network in coal mine parks is particularly important. The full optical 5G network, with its high bandwidth, high-speed transmission, long-distance transmission, and strong anti-interference capabilities, provides strong support for the safe production, efficient operation, and green development of coal mine parks.

Customer Background

A coal mine park in Shanxi Province has a long history of network construction. With the development of the information age, the existing network can no longer meet the current needs and requires a complete network reconstruction. The group has learned about the advantages of the full optical 5G network and wants to take this opportunity to reconstruct the network of the coal mine park with a full optical 5G network to meet the current network needs of the coal mine park.

Importance of Network Upgrade

• Enhance the Safety Level of Coal Mine Production: Traditional coal mine lighting systems have insufficient lighting, which poses safety hazards to miners. The full optical 5G network can achieve real-time monitoring and control of the lighting environment in the mine, effectively reducing safety accidents caused by insufficient lighting.
• Improve Production Efficiency: The full optical 5G network can be seamlessly connected with the coal mine production management system, achieving remote monitoring of lighting equipment, fault and early warning functions, facilitating management personnel to timely discover and solve problems, reducing production interruptions caused by equipment failures, thereby improving production efficiency.
• Promote the Construction of Green Mines: The full optical 5G network adopts advanced LED light sources and intelligent control technology, which has the characteristics of energy saving, environmental protection, long life, and low maintenance. Compared with traditional lighting systems, the full optical 5G lighting system can significantly reduce energy consumption and carbon emissions, reducing the impact on the environment.

Challenges Faced

• Complex Geographic Environment: Coal mine parks are usually located in areas with complex geographical environments, such as mountainous areas or deep underground, with uneven terrain and variable geological conditions. Before the project is constructed, detailed geological surveys are needed to formulate accurate fiber optic cabling and base station installation plans, and special equipment is used to ensure efficient construction under complex terrain.
• Safety and Stability Issues: The coal mine environment has characteristics such as high temperature, high humidity, a lot of dust, and flammability and explosion. During the construction process, equipment with explosion-proof, dustproof, and waterproof characteristics should be selected to ensure stable operation of the equipment in harsh environments. And establish a strict equipment maintenance mechanism to timely discover and solve problems.
• Real-time Data Transmission: The data transmission demand during coal mine production is large and requires high real-time performance, such as the monitoring video in the mine, sensor data, equipment status, etc. Before construction, a reasonable network architecture should be constructed to reduce the latency of data transmission.
• Shortage of Technical Personnel: The construction and maintenance of the full optical 5G network require high-quality technical personnel, and many coal mine enterprises are relatively lacking in talent reserves in this area. We need to seek cooperation with professional third-party companies and strengthen internal staff training to ensure the smooth progress and operation of the project.

Solution

This project uses the existing optical cables to replace the original position with the aggregation switch, and upgrades the gigabit network to a ten-gigabit network, enhancing the network bandwidth speed to meet the network requirements of the mine park. In addition, a video private network is established to reduce the number of underground equipment to achieve simple and convenient operation and maintenance.
