URSYS designs satellite-based voice and data communications for enterprise applications and develops bespoke communications and monitoring control systems.
Since 1994, URSYS has helped industries and organisations in the remotest corners of Australia stay connected. Wherever the location is, URSYS is an expert in regional integrated communications.
We work with our clients to build their ideal communication solution, whether it’s one small Starlink connection or designing and managing entire communication networks across Australia. Our solution for any new client is to have seamless integration, bandwidth efficiency, affordable scalability, agile flexibility and intuitive network management. One other area not to be left out is security. It is always at the forefront of our planning and design, URSYS has a specialist team to facilitate the high standards with which our clients expect.
Our clients come from many different industries, but they all have remote networks within Australia in common. We have clients in the Mining and Resources industry, Oil and Gas (Offshore) pipelines, Water and Electricity, Construction, Emergency Services, offshore, Government, and some Agribusiness.
Our people are our greatest asset. They work as a team to find a solution, build a solution, implement and manage it, or provide a specific service for a short—or long-term project.
Our partners are top in the industry, and their high standards reflect our product decisions moving forward. We have spent many years developing relationships to keep URSYS on top of new and emerging technologies and providing support for ongoing projects.
Satellite communication solutions for the offshore industry
Satellite communications is a broad term that describes many different products and services. It provides reliable voice and data communications with satellite connectivity in remote or underserviced areas. Extend your networks to regions where conventional infrastructure is limited. It varies to suit specific requirements.
Low earth orbit for improved agility
Improve the responsiveness and agility of your various applications and services with a constellation of small satellites orbiting the Earth at altitudes ranging from 500km to 1,200km, e.g. Starlink and One Web.
GEO stationary technology for communication services
Objects in GEO appear motionless from the ground because their orbital period is identical to Earth’s rotation — 23 hours, 56 minutes, and four seconds. This allows a terrestrial antenna to always point toward the same device in space and is very reliable. That’s why this type of satellite is perfect for always-on communication services. The downside of the GEO type of spacecraft for real-time communication is the longer signal delay caused by their great distance from the Earth.
Cutting-edge satellite solutions
URSYS will work with our customers to determine the specific business requirements and then match these to the most appropriate technologies. For example, monitoring of a tailing dam on a mine site requires low bandwidth and irregular data transmission which is suited to a BGAN solution, whereas transmitting SCADA data from a gas well needs a continual data stream where a VSAT system will provide a better alternative.
Fixed wireless solutions
Point-to-Point Radio Systems: Seamlessly exchange data between two specified locations with a direct and dedicated wireless communication link
Multi point Radio Systems: Allow multiple users in different locations to connect to the same network, with a single base station providing widespread and efficient connectivity across campus.
Microwave Solutions: Establish high-performance, high bandwidth point-to-point communication links across extended distances, connecting your remote backhaul connection and your local area network.
LTE for secure communication
Private LTE: Access a secure, dedicated private network with 4/5G connectivity designed for corporate use and tailored to meet your specific business requirements. Leave the mainstream telcos behind.
4G / Public Cellular: Add SIM card connectivity to link your corporate network to a public cellular network, expanding your communication options wherever 4G coverage is present.
Mesh radios for seamless communication
Extend your Wi-Fi networks over wider and dynamic landscapes, using network nodes to communicate with each other. This is ideal for seamless connectivity in mobile environments like vehicles.
Networking hardware and remote network services
Reliable technology – including switches, routers and firewalls – carefully selected from trusted partners to meet the demanding requirements of remote conditions.
Network Design: URYSYS has designed networks for just about every possible industry and use case in Australia. Our engineers can provide you with a bespoke network design — whether you need a voice and data network for a small remote community or a SCADA monitoring system tracking a gas pipeline right across Australia. As every project is different, our engineers will establish your requirements and evaluate the available options for each location before providing you with informed recommendations and agreeing on the scope of work.
Security Design: Whether you’re designing a new network or reviewing your existing systems, we can design and implement a strategy to strengthen your network and IT infrastructure against security threats. And because cybersecurity is never set and forgotten, we can automate your data security controls to respond quickly to security events, even helping your systems adapt to newly identified threats before they impact your business.
Commissioning, Installation and Configuration: Once the network design is done, the technologies purchased, and the hardware sent to the location, the real work begins. Our network engineers collaborate with local installers and onsite techs to commission routers, point dishes and install comms to the infrastructure network.
To keep each rollout on track, we assign a project manager to minimise any potential disruption or delays due to weather, scheduling conflicts and other unforeseen complications.
