Starlink for Tradies and Job Sites
Starlink set up on a construction site for job site internet
Starlink for tradies and job sites keeps builders, contractors and rural crews connected where no internet exists yet, on new builds, rural jobs and sites without existing infrastructure. Air Vision Systems stocks mounts and power solutions built to get a site online fast, without waiting on a fixed line install that might not happen until well after the job is finished.

WHICH SETUP DO YOU NEED
Setting up Starlink for tradies and job sites
Fast setup and pack down
A clamp or pipe mount attaches to scaffolding, a ute tray, or an existing structure without drilling. A tripod setup also works well where nothing suitable is available to clamp onto, so the dish can go up in minutes and come down again at the end of the day or when the job moves site.
Power without mains on site
A portable power supply runs the dish independently of mains power. Portable power stations also work well on site, provided the correct cable or step-up converter is used to match the output to what Starlink needs.
Charging tools and devices from the same setup
A PoE injector with USB-A and Type-C outputs alongside the dish connection means phones, tablets and small tools can charge from the same power source, useful when a site has no other power available.

Who This Setup Suits
Builders and contractors working on new builds without an existing internet connection
Rural and remote jobs where a fixed line install is not practical or would take too long
Surveyors needing connectivity at temporary or elevated sites
Any trade needing to send plans, photos, or paperwork from site rather than waiting until end of day
Installation limitations and things to check first
Complete your Starlink work setup with the right accessories for reliable connectivity anywhere.
Confirm your dish type (Mini or Gen 3) before ordering, mount and cable compatibility differs between the two. Also check your plan: Starlink doesn't permit Residential plans for business use, and its Priority plans are designed for businesses.
Check the mount is rated for the structure you actually plan to attach it to, scaffolding, a ute tray and a tripod all have different requirements
Match battery capacity to how long the site needs power for, a full day on site needs more capacity than a quick job
A dish left on an active site should be positioned to avoid impact damage from equipment, materials or vehicle movement
