Need antennas or telecom equipment installed at height?
Rope Access 360 delivers without the delays of scaffolding.
High-Rise Telecom Installation with Rope Access
Telecom infrastructure is only as good as its installation. For Vodacom’s 5G rollout, new antennas had to be mounted securely on a high-rise structure in Johannesburg. Traditional scaffolding or cranes would have slowed the project and driven up costs. Rope access provided a faster, safer, and more controlled way to reach the installation points without disruption to operations or the surrounding area.

Antenna Installation and Testing
Every high-access project begins with rigging and safety checks. Our technicians used permanent anchor points and IWH-compliant systems to secure access. Each harness, rope, and line was checked before work began. By choosing rope access, Vodacom ensured the project was done with zero disruption to the building’s daily functions, and full compliance with safety regulations.
Our High-Access Process to Repair Signage
Step 1: Rope Access Setup
Our team utilized rope access techniques to safely access the high-rise structure for the installation of the 5G antennas.
Step 2: Antenna Installation
The team installed the new 5G Vodacom antennas, ensuring proper placement and security according to required standards.
Step 3: Testing and Verification
After installation, our team conducted checks to ensure the antennas were securely fastened and functioning as required.
Antenna Installation and Testing
The team worked in phases: secure placement of each antenna, alignment for optimal coverage, and final testing to ensure reliability. Every unit was double-checked for fastening strength and connection quality before handover. The job was completed in three days, with no downtime and no post-installation faults.
