Mercuron, a Belgian company, specializes in wireless communication. With our expertise in radio waves, we create ASTRID and mobile phone signal amplifiers from the ground up.
In Belgium, we need to follow the TETRA standard, which is managed by ASTRID. This means emergency services need to have top-notch communication all the time, everywhere. Got an ASTRID requirement? We can check the ASTRID signal in your building. You might find out you don’t need a new installation after all!
From preparing and communicating with ASTRID to creating the RF design, installation, and monitoring—it's all taken care of by us. You can relax while we streamline the whole process.
Nobody likes paying extra for something required by law. That’s why we carefully examine each case to make sure you get the best, most cost-effective ASTRID coverage.
We don't see you as clients but as partners. That's why we work together to find the best solutions and make sure we deliver reliable systems.
Before we launched ASTRID, we were already experts in boosting mobile phone signals. We use our radio spectrum know-how for ASTRID as well.
Good signal strength is crucial for both ASTRID and mobile networks. If ASTRID’s signal is weak, your mobile signal probably is too. That’s why installing them together is a smart move:
We aim the fixed antenna on the roof at the nearest ASTRID base station. The signal is picked up and sent through the coaxial cable to the repeater.
The ASTRID repeater picks up signals and boosts them before sending them out again. It’s different from other repeaters like GSM ones, so only an authorized ASTRID installer can set it up.
The boosted signals are sent through the repeater to the indoor antennas, covering the areas where ASTRID service is needed.
We check how well ASTRID signals cover your building. Unlike a typical mobile network survey, ASTRID’s needs a bit more work, which affects the cost. Using the results, we create a customized system so you only pay for what you really need, avoiding any unnecessary extras.
For every ASTRID installation, we create a detailed technical file. We handle this by preparing the RF Design and submitting it to ASTRID for approval. Once we get the written conformity report, we can start the installation.
As we mentioned earlier, we handle everything for ASTRID from start to finish. We'll take care of the entire installation, including cabling and setting up the equipment. Your system will be customized based on what we found during the site survey. If any tweaks to the RF Design are needed, we’ll take care of those too.
In this phase, we keep the equipment running smoothly. This involves regular hardware and software updates, plus annual mandatory maintenance to ensure everything stays in top shape.
We monitor the installation around the clock and are always ready to fix any issues that come up. As a building owner, you can relax knowing everything will keep running smoothly.
Nobody enjoys paying extra for something that's required by law. That's why we take a close look at each situation and find the most affordable way to make sure you get the best ASTRID coverage.
With Remote Access, we can easily monitor and manage the ASTRID system from afar. If any issues pop up, we can quickly fix them and find a solution.
Not every building needs extra ASTRID coverage. You’ll need it if:
We’re here to help building owners make sure emergency services are well-supported. Think you might need a signal boost? Get in touch with us!
