fixed & mobile networks

Robust offshore
connectivity

Providing robust connectivity in remote wind farm locations is challenging. However, it is essential for enabling data collection, system monitoring, and onshore-offshore communication.

Offinity’s mobile and fixed solutions – private 5G, satellite, fiber, SD-WAN, and critical networks – make sure you stay connected across locations. We connect edge infrastructure and secure OT-IT data flow. Communication tools like push-to-talk, VHF, and VoIP keep your workforce connected onshore, offshore, or in transit.

Selecting your optimal offshore connectivity

Offinity bridges the gap between offshore and onshore sites through a wide range of mobile and fixed connectivity solutions, including fixed fiber, 5G, satellite, and time-sensitive critical networks.

Fixed fiber connectivity

Fixed fiber is the gold standard for linking onshore infrastructure with offshore wind farms due to its unparalleled reliability and performance. Offinity provides state-of-the-art digital infrastructure designed to ensure dependable fixed fiber connections with consistently high bandwidth.

Fixed fiber supports stable and low-latency data transfer, which is essential for enabling uninterrupted monitoring, precise control, and real-time operational oversight of offshore wind farms. Fixed fiber connectivity enables operators to maintain efficiency and ensure the long-term success of their renewable energy projects.

Satellite

Offinity supports satellite communication, widely used for offshore-to-onshore links, especially beyond microwave range or when there are obstructions or over-the-horizon positioning.

Satellite communication often serves as a backup, ensuring continuous connectivity during primary system failures.

Private 5G networks

Offinity offers the digital infrastructure to help you establish communication across non-public 5G networks.

Private 5G network connection is especially useful in near-shore installations or in zones already populated with other wind farms.

Microwave (line of sight)

Microwave communication is a reliable backup or alternative to fiber for connecting onshore and offshore locations. Microwave systems require an unobstructed path between the transmitter and receiver, meaning no physical barriers (buildings, mountains, or dense foliage) can block the signal path.

This technology is ideal when fiber isn’t feasible, offering high-speed, low-latency data transfer for operational needs like turbine monitoring, environmental data, and maintenance. Benefits include low costs, secure links, and support for real-time operations, voice, and video.


Edge networks

Connect
at the edge

Our industrial networking solutions provide a seamless integration between your end-to-end OT and IT infrastructures. By relying on our advanced Wi-Fi networks and robust firewalls, your OT network not only remains resilient, but also highly secure.

Our solutions are designed for high availability and hardening, ensuring continuous operation in demanding environments. With low latency and deterministic performance, they support time-sensitive applications, to transmit critical data  transmitted precisely when needed.

Selecting robust edge connectivity

Offinity provides advanced digital infrastructure to streamline and optimize both system communication and user communication processes at your wind farms.

Industrial Wi-Fi

Ensuring reliable Wi-Fi coverage in offshore wind farms is challenging due to their vast areas and metal structures like substations and turbines, where 4G/5G signals often weaken.

Offinity offers seamless Wi-Fi across your wind farm, typically covering the OSS, a 50m to 100m perimeter, and inside each WTG.

Private 5G networks

4G and 5G networks are increasingly used in offshore wind farms for efficient communication and advanced operations. 4G supports smartphones, telephony, and push-to-talk without roaming (VoLTE).

5G enables additional capabilities such as real-time monitoring, predictive maintenance, and drone inspections. Often combined with satellite and microwave links, 5G creates a resilient network for wind farm management.


workforce communication

Direct link with 
your workforce

Effortlessly maintain communication with your offshore workforce through our comprehensive range of solutions, including push-to-talk, VHF, and voice-over-IP.

These solutions operate on top of primary mobile communication networks and ensure that you always have reliable connectivity, no matter where your team is located—whether they are onshore, offshore, or in transit on a vessel.

Communicate with trust

Stay connected and keep your workforce safe with reliable and redundant end-to-end communication, including VOIP, ROIP, Push-to-Talk, VHF, and PAGA systems.

VOIP

Voice-over-IP (VoIP) enables cost-effective, scalable voice communication over the internet, offering a reliable alternative to phone lines.

It ensures seamless coordination between onshore control centers and offshore facilities, enhancing efficiency in wind farm operations

Push-to-talk

Push-to-Talk (PTT) apps enable instant voice communication without dialing, ideal for time-sensitive coordination in wind farms.

Available on smartphones, PTT integrates with existing systems and works in remote areas. It supports one-to-one and group communication over IP networks, including private LTE and public 4G.

VHF

Very High Frequency (VHF) radio communication is vital for wind farm operations, ensuring safety and coordination among personnel and vessels transporting crews to and from offshore sites.

VHF supports crew transfers, maintenance, emergency response, and safety compliance, reducing risks and boosting efficiency.

PAGA

Public Address and General Alarm (PAGA) systems are critical for communication in offshore wind farm operations. They provide clear alerts during normal and emergency situations to enhance safety and coordination.

Redundant speakers connected to separate network switches ensure reliability and minimize failure risk.

ROIP

Radio over Internet Protocol (RoIP) uses IP networks for radio communication, making it ideal for wind farms where traditional methods are impractical.

It enables long-distance communication, enhancing flexibility, reducing costs, and supporting efficient operations and safety management.
