Ruckus Wireless has unveiled what is said to be the industry’s first complete, end-to-end managed, wireless broadband access (WBA) solution that gives service providers a cost-effective, “build-as-you-grow” model for offering broadband data services in developing urban areas.
The solution addresses the massive opportunity for high-speed data services that Wimax cannot due to huge start up cost and deployment complexity.
It promises service providers a reduction of five times in capital costs for initial coverage and a reduction of 30 times in the cost of incremental capacity.
The solution includes outdoor mesh APs, customer premises equipment, a new line of smart Wi-Fi backhaul systems and system-wide remote management.
