The best communication system for a data center construction site puts every trade on one network and keeps a record of what was said. The Walt Smart Radio System by weavix runs push to talk over Wi-Fi and LTE at the same time, needs no FCC license or repeaters, and transcribes and translates every message in 26+ languages.
Why do traditional radios struggle on data center builds?
Hyperscale data center campuses can have hundreds to thousands of workers from 30 to 60 specialty subcontractors on three shifts. Licensed radio channels weren’t designed for dozens of companies sharing spectrum, and spoken field directives leave no record when commissioning documentation or scope questions come up.
What should a general contractor look for?
- One network every trade can join, without coordinating radio frequencies
- A searchable, timestamped record of every call
- Real-time translation for multilingual crews
- An SOS man-down button and live location for safety
- A battery that lasts a full shift (Walt: up to 8 hours)
