Telecom Systems
Designing and delivering reliable communications networks — from fibre and wireless to VSAT, LEO satellite (Starlink & OneWeb) and remote connectivity — that keep people, assets and operations connected across industrial, remote and critical-infrastructure environments, backed by field engineers across Africa.
Capabilities
What we deliver in Telecom Systems
Fibre Optic Networks
Single-mode and multimode fibre backbones — design, splicing, termination and OTDR testing — delivering the high-capacity, low-latency connectivity that links sites, campuses and data centres.
Outside Plant (OSP) Cabling
Underground and aerial cable routes, ducts, chambers and pole lines engineered for the field — the external plant that carries connectivity reliably between buildings and remote sites.
Inside Plant (ISP) Cabling
In-building copper and fibre cabling, risers and equipment-room terminations — installed, dressed, labelled and tested to standard for a clean, maintainable backbone.
Structured Cabling Systems (SCS)
End-to-end structured cabling — racks, patch panels, containment and certified Cat6/6A and fibre links — a tidy, standards-based foundation that keeps every network organised and scalable.
Wireless Networks
Enterprise Wi-Fi and point-to-point / point-to-multipoint links — surveyed, designed and tuned for dependable coverage across offices, yards and sprawling industrial sites.
LTE & Private LTE Systems
Private LTE / 5G and cellular systems that deliver secure, high-performance mobile connectivity for control, telemetry and mission-critical users across large operational footprints.
Wireless Mesh Networks
Self-healing wireless mesh that extends resilient coverage across large, moving or hard-to-cable environments such as mines, ports and construction sites.
TETRA, DMR, VHF & UHF Radio Systems
Two-way radio and land-mobile systems — TETRA, DMR and conventional VHF/UHF — engineered for dependable voice, dispatch and worker safety where it matters most.
VSAT Communications
Satellite (VSAT) links that bring connectivity to remote, offshore and disaster-recovery sites well beyond the reach of terrestrial networks.
Microwave Radio Systems
Licensed and unlicensed microwave links providing high-capacity backhaul between towers and sites over long distances, with the availability critical operations demand.
PAGA Systems
Public Address & General Alarm systems engineered for speech intelligibility and compliance in noisy, hazardous-area industrial environments.
LEO Satellite Connectivity (Starlink & OneWeb)
High-throughput, low-latency Low Earth Orbit (LEO) broadband — including Starlink and OneWeb — engineered, installed and managed to bring fast, reliable internet to remote sites, offices and field operations where fibre and cellular can’t reach.
Satellite Earth Stations & Teleports
Design, build and commissioning of satellite earth stations, teleports and gateway infrastructure — antennas, RF chains, modems and monitoring — that anchor VSAT and LEO networks to the terrestrial backbone.
Remote Connectivity Solutions
Turnkey connectivity for the hardest-to-reach locations — combining VSAT, LEO (Starlink / OneWeb), private LTE and microwave into a single resilient link, with power, networking and security integrated for remote camps, rigs, mines and disaster-recovery sites.
Field Engineering Across Africa
A network of CDS field engineers across Africa — ready to survey, install, commission and maintain satellite and communications systems at scale, meeting the manpower demand of multi-site rollouts wherever our clients operate.
Deployment coverage
Deploying and Supporting Across Africa
CDS has resources and field manpower on the ground across Africa to deploy, install, commission and maintain connectivity at scale — covering LEO and VSAT satellite, OneWeb, emergency communications, telecom system integration and turnkey connectivity for even the most remote sites.
