Warehouses, distribution & dispatch

Connected from picking.
Right through to dispatch.

Handheld scanners, stock applications and dispatch teams need connections across a changing warehouse. We help plan Wi-Fi, cabling and IT support around racking, working routes and the office systems that keep the site organised.

Start with what
your people need.

Good design starts with the layout, the devices and the moments when a connection matters most.

Coverage along real working routes

Racking, stock and high ceilings affect the wireless environment. We review aisle layouts and where devices move, rather than judging coverage from a floor area alone.

Connections between working areas

Offices, packing benches and dispatch areas need suitable links back to the network. We can survey outlets, cabinets and routes for new copper or fibre connections.

Devices that move between access points

Handheld devices have their own wireless capabilities and configuration needs. We discuss the models in use and test the agreed working areas as part of the network handover.

Plan it properly

Plan for the warehouse you actually use.

Share the racking plan, scanner models and the areas where connections drop. A useful survey considers stock levels, picking routes and the places people stop to work. We use those details to discuss access-point positions, cabling and a practical test plan.

Work needs to fit around site access and the movement of people and equipment. We agree installation areas and change windows with your team, then provide records of the network connections. If the warehouse layout changes later, the coverage plan can be reviewed rather than assumed to still fit.

A few practical answers

Your sector.
Your questions.

Tell us about the systems you use and the parts of the site that need attention. We’ll help identify the next step.

Can you investigate scanner Wi-Fi dropouts?

Yes. We review the devices, access points and areas where the problem occurs. Coverage, interference and device configuration all need to be considered before deciding what to change.

Does changing the racking affect Wi-Fi?

It can. Metal racking and the stock stored on it can change signal paths. Tell us about planned layout changes so the wireless design and test areas can be reviewed.

Can you connect the warehouse and office together?

We can discuss the cabling, switching and links between those areas, with network separation where needed for the devices and applications you use.
