Dedicated mobile coverage for more than 270 residents
Domestic travel and reliable connectivity go hand in hand and Optus is making sure travellers to Tasmania and locals alike are able to stay connected after switching on a brand-new site in Lachlan, delivering additional coverage to the community as part of the priority round of the Federal Governments Mobile Black Spot Program.
The Optus site, located on an existing tower along Moores Road, will provide dedicated coverage to Lachlan that includes north towards existing coverage at New Norfolk. More than 270 residents will now be able to connect to reliable Optus mobile reception, providing them with the improved ability to make and receive calls, texts and browse the internet.
Dedicated mobile coverage for more than 200 homes
Optus certainly isnt getting cold feet when it comes to its commitment to improving mobile coverage across the Central Coast region of New South Wales, swapping out its interim solution in Spencer for something permanent as part of round two of the Federal Governments Mobile Black Spot Program.
The site, located along Wisemans Ferry road, provides dedicated 4G and 3G mobile coverage to the villages of Spencer and Wendoree Park on the Hawkesbury River. This permanent site will deliver much needed coverage and connectivity to the Central Coast region, replacing the Satellite Small Cell that was deployed in the interim and will enable more than 200 homes to make and receive calls, texts and browse the internet. At Optus expense, a new dedicated 4G Satellite Small Cell will be deployed at Marlow who have been benefitting from the interim solution deployed at the Spencer caravan park.
Over $1 million invested to eliminate mobile blackspot
Sharing your next sunset photo just got a lot easier thanks to Optus delivering much needed coverage and connectivity to Cape Tribulation in North Eastern Queensland by partnering with the Commonwealth and Queensland Government as part of Round 2 of the Federal Governments Mobile Black Spot Program.
Optus took its site deployment measures to new heights when it used a helicopter to assist with assembling the infrastructure needed for the 50 metre high tower, located along Cape Tribulation Road. The tower has been designed to withstand tropical weather conditions and has been built with directional antenna in order to maximise coverage in the area, even out to sea.
