On Thursday 19th September, the Digital By Default Group met to hear from Glideology, partners on the 5G CONQuEST project. This project is Innovate UK funded and aims to provide low Carbon, flexible, secure, high speed, private 5G coverage for construction sites.
The project is being undertaken by Glideology, BAM, BRE, Leading Edge Power and Attocore. They have developed a 5G mast which is easy and safe to deploy, with no working at height required, and can be re-located and moved around the site, though it’s location is linked to the 5G licence. The mast can be powered locally and off-grid.
To find out more about the project, benefits, challenges and next steps, take a look at the outputs from the 5G CONQuEST workshop, hosted by Constructing Excellence.
