This shopping centre in Aspley is a hidden treasure. Anchored by Coles, Kmart, ALDI, Woolworths and Sunlit Asian Supermarket it offers a calm, community orientated shopping experience.
Challenge:
Every tenant in the shopping centre needed to use wireless EFTPOS machines. The thick concrete construction of the shopping centre was causing the Telstra mobile signal to drop out frequently, despite a Telstra tower in proximity. Due to the lack of mobile signal, EFTPOS machines were unable to operate effectively. This forced tenants to ask customers to make cash payments for their goods. This was not ideal, with most customers unhappy about this inconvenience.

The Solution
Powertec Reseller Seada Electro Technology was selected for the installation. After an initial onsite visit, a solution was determined. One external Blackhawk Omni antenna was installed to capture the signal produced by the nearby Telstra tower. Four CEL-FI GO Stationary repeaters were also installed in the centre to amplify the captured signal. Additionally, four Pulse Larsen DAS internal antennas were placed on the ceiling at various locations within the centre, the antennas work to disperse the Telstra signal across the centre. This solution increased the Telstra mobile signal for all tenants within the centre. EFTPOS machines are now constantly operational, which in turn has led to happy customers.
Summary
All EFTPOS machines within the shopping centre are now fully operational with no drop out issues. The Telstra signal has increased from one bar to four bars centre wide.
