4ipnet's WISP Solutions to Overcome Network Issues


4ipnet has introduced its Internet access and management solutions for WISP (Wireless Internet Service Providers) business operations.
 
4ipnet’s solutions help in lowering entry costs, speeding ROI (Return on Investment) and allowing for flexible expansion to new markets.
   
One of the important tasks of WISPs is to distribute Internet traffic and value-added services to apartments or offices in an MDU (Multiple Dwelling Unit) or MTU (Multiple Tenant Unit) by deploying wireless LAN.


 
Opportunities and challenges are increasing for WISPs, especially with the increase in the public use of wireless Internet access and a demand for high-speed Internet access and easier and more cost-efficient solutions to reach as many customers as possible.
 
In order to deliver fast broadband access, many WISPs are using wireless equipments operating at 2.4 GHz bands, which is a license-exempt spectrum.
 
4ipnet has come up with solutions, such as Customer Premises Equipment (CPE), which allow service providers to deliver high-speed wireless services with minimal investment and maximum scalability.
 
CPE is single wireless equipment which can be shared amongst all subscribers in one building. This reduces equipment cost and maintenance efforts.
 
CPE100 Wireless Outdoor CPE/AP/Repeater can be used for Point-to-Point Bandwidth Delivery, which can function as a CPE to deliver the last-mile bandwidth from WISP base station to its subscribers.
   
CPE100 can also be used for Point-to-Multipoint Bandwidth Delivery, which serves as an Access Point (News - Alert), to provide wireless Internet connectivity on an outdoor campus or inside a building. 
 
For Centralized Manageability, 4ipnet Gateways are designed for both wired and wireless networks. Such as the WHG301 Wireless Hotspot Gateway (News - Alert) for residential rental apartments, the MSG100 Multi-service Wireless Office Gateway for small and branch offices.
