Truck, bus and engine manufacturerScaniahas implemented a wireless
communication network at its main production facility in Sweden to
reduce the company'scarbon footprint.
Scania, which operates in 100 countries, is using the
InterReach Unison System from ADC to maintain its accreditation
under the ISO 14001 environmental management standard.
The system provides wireless coverage that enables mobile phones
to use less signal strength for calls, which minimises the
microwave emissions, reduces power consumption for recharging and
extends battery life.
Leif Riiser, product manager responsible for telephony for
Scania, said the manufacturer had chosen the ADC system because of
the coverage and signal quality it delivered.
