Indoor Radio Coverage

Nexum offers telecommunication engineering with a 360° vision, site surveys, site engineering, sales & pre-sales support, feasibility studies, team leading, project management. All these services are deeply tailored to fit our Customer necessities. Our extensive experience in the telecommunication market, during the years, allowed us to propose highly innovative and cost effective solutions.
We are able to make the radio coverage design, find the technology providers, make equipment testing and commissioning, and the final coverage measurements. All of this also in the railway environment
What Nexum offers to its Customer: pre-sales & sales engineering, feasibility studies, conceptual and Front End Engineering Design (FEED), detailed engineering, coverage studies, link’s Line-Of-Sight, project management, optical budgets, IATs & FATs, inspections and witnessing at vendors & sub-vendors, availability calculations, diagrams, layouts and training.
360° knowledge, cooperation with leading manufacturers of telecommunication equipment and with all market players allow us to support our Customers during all phases of the engineering.
Thanks to the partnership with Radio Frequency System we are able to supply antennas, coaxial cables and above all high performance radiant cables that comply with all the latest European safety regulations.

LOS and RF interference measurements

Prior to install new radiating telecommunication equipment such as radio links or base stations, a RF survey (all directions and, at least, all the bands which will be used) is strongly recommended (in most cases is legally mandatory). Sometime the quality of the communications of existing plants worsen and the research for RF interference sources becomes necessary. Again, in few cases, simulators can’t guarantee a really free Line-Of-Sight and so, prior to install a new radio link system (spending time and money) is better to verify. In all these cases, our team gives a fast and reliable answer from 2 GHz up to 30 GHz. Nexum usually offers these services to mobile operators, broadcasters and government.
Spectrum analysis is our most important and more used measurement instrument. Often these measures are performed at the top of a telecom tower or a telecommunication pole. For this reason, low weight, battery powered, small dimensions are a must. It’s not easy to find all those features combined with high sensitivity and low noise figure… After many years of measurements, we selected Advantest U3771Keysight Field Fox and Keysight HSA which Nexum owns in several units.
To isolate the exact direction from where the RF interference comes, Nexum uses an extensive set of horn antennas (from large to narrow bandwidth). All of them, like all our instruments, own the calibration certificate.

Broadcasting equipment installation

Nexum installs and commissions all kinds of telecommunication system. In its portfolio of successfully commissioned systems, Nexum boasts from very high power liquid cooled transmitters to microwave links located in difficult environments.
Nexum provides single site installations as well as can take care of country-wide networks as it does for some Customers. Nexum also offers the complete management of the installation tasks including direct approach with the final Customer (or site administrator) for authorizations, government procedures, electromagnetic pollution predictions and reports (with legal value), responsibility and witnessing during commissioning and start-up activities. Territory presence, turn-key capability, a solid and motivated team and 360° knowledge allow us to offer cost effective and innovative solutions.

Electromagnetic pollution evalution and safety at work places

Electromagnetic fields are usually generated by telecommunication equipment as well as large electrical plants. Nexum owns a great experience in radio frequency (and all related regulations), specific measurement instruments and possesses all qualifications to issue reports with legal value. Nexum offers these services to broadcasters and mobile operators (to certify that existing or new plants operate within the limits of applicable regulations), to government (railway operators and agencies) and to public and private companies to certify the safety and wholesomeness of work places.
Nexum’s test bench includes many measurement instruments. One of them is a portable electromagnetic field meter equipped with its probes. It operates stand alone or connected with a laptop by an optical fiber cable in order to keep the instrument electrically isolated. One of the probes often used is for wide band measurements (from 100 kHz up to 7 GHz). It is an isotropic sensor and measures electromagnetic fields from 0,35 V/m up to 450 V/m. This test bench is normally adopted for measurements in mobile telephony (GSM, GSM-R, DCS, UMTS, LTE), Wi-Fi and broadcasting.
Another probe which Nexum adopted is an isotropic sensor suitable for the measurements of low frequency (from 5 Hz up to 100 kHz) electromagnetic fields. Its measurements are performed in 3 axis (x, y, z) by means a powerful built-in spectrum analyzer. A specific software suite, also in this case, allows the data management.

Structured cabling-Networking

The structured cabling and the computer networks complete the services offered by Nexum. On customer request we can provide all the elements for a LAN network (router, switch, access point,…). Our proposal are tailored ti the needs of the customer.
To complete the installation we carry out the test by issuing all the testing certificates. We also work on old networks to update and/or replace them trying to find the most suitable solution for the customer’s needs.
We also take care of the electrical wiring and, if necessary, we make small switchgear with all the necessary documentation of conformity.
