Upgrade your factory network for Wi-Fi 7, CCTV growth, automation and AI workloads — in most plants without replacing the existing structured cabling.

Thailand opens 5.925–6.425 GHz only (500 MHz, not the full 1,200): low-power indoor 250 mW EIRP, very-low-power portable 25 mW — no standard-power or AFC class. So 6 GHz is an indoor-density band here: Wi-Fi 7 coverage plans on 5 GHz, with 6 GHz for assembly cells and QC stations — and yard APs stay 2.4/5 GHz.

The BOI efficiency-improvement measure gives existing factories a 3-year CIT exemption capped at 50% of the qualifying investment — 100% where ≥30% of the upgraded-machinery value links to the Thai automation industry — minimum ฿1M, start-up within 3 years of the certificate; the refreshed window runs through the last working day of 2027. Network infrastructure may qualify as part of a promoted upgrade project.

The official NSTDA/FTI readiness index measures six dimensions; the 2023 survey averaged 2.38 (small), 2.45 (medium), 3.07 (large) — and the BOI's Industry 4.0 efficiency measure relies on NSTDA assessment under this framework. Our Readiness Check maps network verdicts onto the connectivity-dependent dimensions and exports a page you can attach to your own index submission.

CII operators must segment OT, audit and report incidents to the NCSA; PDPA covers CCTV footage of staff and visitors, with breach reporting to the PDPC within 72 hours where the breach risks data subjects' rights. The OT/IT segmentation matrix and the logged CCTV VLAN are compliance deliverables here — the acceptance list includes an evidence pack written for your DPO and auditor.

Thai industrial feeders see frequent voltage sags — and a 48-port PoE switch is a 700 W-class load that reboots every camera on one. The design specifies online double-conversion UPS per IDF (PoE load + 25%, ≥15 min), dual-PSU switches on separate circuits, and IDF cooling checks in tropical ambient. Acceptance test: all cameras survive a 30-second simulated sag.
