GSM STATIONS
A Rugged, Secure, and Climate-Controlled Infrastructure for Uninterrupted Network Service
GSM stations are field-deployed systems that form the operational backbone of mobile communications networks and directly influence critical performance parameters such as coverage, capacity, and service continuity. This infrastructure requires reliable protection of base station equipment against environmental conditions, assured power continuity, and secure access management.
MILSHEL shelter solutions are engineered to enable safe, stable, and long-life operation of GSM field stations under demanding climatic and environmental conditions.
Design Compatible with BTS/NodeB/eNodeB/gNodeB Infrastructure
GSM field deployments typically include the following equipment:
- Radio units and baseband systems
- Transmission equipment (radio link/fiber interfaces)
- Network and routing devices
- Power distribution panels
- Battery banks and rectifier systems
- Monitoring and alarm infrastructures
MILSHEL shelter architecture:
- Modular rack cabinet layout
- Interior arrangement optimized for cabling and power management
- External field connection panels
- Planning that supports service and maintenance access
to enable rapid deployment and sustainable operation.
HVAC and Thermal Management
Telecom equipment is sensitive to temperature fluctuations and high humidity. Without thermal stability, performance degradation and failure risk increase.
In MILSHEL GSM shelters:
- Precision-controlled HVAC systems
- Filtered ventilation infrastructure
- Temperature and humidity sensors
- Integration with remote monitoring and alarm systems
to establish stable operating conditions for the equipment.
Power Continuity and Backup
In GSM stations, a power outage translates directly into service loss. For this reason, redundancy is critical.
MILSHEL solutions:
- Integrated power distribution panel
- Rectifier and battery system integration
- UPS and battery backup options
- Generator integration (optional)
- Overvoltage and overcurrent protection infrastructure
to provide continuity and reliability.
Physical Security and Access Control
Field telecom infrastructure must be protected against unauthorized access and sabotage risks.
In MILSHEL shelters:
- High-strength enclosure structure
- Locked technical access compartments
- A design approach that reduces the likelihood of unauthorized intervention
- Integration with camera, alarm, and remote-access monitoring systems (optional)
can be provided.
Environmental Robustness and Field Readiness
GSM stations are often deployed:
- In open terrain and rural areas
- Under harsh climatic conditions
- In dusty, humid, or windy regions
- In high-corrosion-risk locations such as coastal areas
MILSHEL shelters:
- IP-rated sealing
- Corrosion-resistant exterior surface coatings
- High-strength load-bearing structure
- Long-life outdoor durability
to ensure readiness for field conditions.
Use Cases
MILSHEL GSM Shelters can be used in the following applications:
- Rural and remote-area base stations
- Emergency and temporary coverage stations
- Mobile communications infrastructures within/around critical facilities
- Redundant transmission points
- Operator network expansion projects
