Wireless Solution

Slow propagation of fixed telecommunications solutions such as copper and fiber drive the need for wireless solutions that is cost effective and capable of delivering high throughput that are comparable to the throughput achieved over wired networks. Multiple wireless approaches can be utilized according to the nature of connectivity challenge and customer requirements

 

Terrestrial PTP Microwave Networks

For years, microwave radio transmissions have been used in the telecommunications industry for the transport of data where information transmissions occur through carrier signals. Microwave radios is an ideal substitute for fiber connectivity and traditionally it comes in the form of point to point links. PTP links usually is employing highly directional transmitting and receiving antennas. Networks of such links connected end to end can provide multi gig speeds, supports line of sight and non-line of sight scenarios and span great distances reaching hundreds of kilometers.

WiConnect offers licensed and license exempted band PTP solutions in various configurations and offers

• 1+0 to N+1 and space diversity in all available licensed bands 7 GHz to 38 GHz and E bands.
• Offers license exempted PTP links in sub-6 GHz and V bands.

PMP Microwave Networks

Unlike point-to-point (PTP), PMP microwave is based on the concept of a sectorized hub where each sector creates a coverage that can be used to connect multiple sites. PMP microwave uses a single frequency per sector to connect multiple points, rather than on a link by link basis, allowing bandwidth to be shared across all sites in the sector. Due to this real-time allocation of spectrum, PMP microwave technology is more efficient in the utilization of used spectrum. The aggregation of multiple customer ends at a single sector reduces the total bandwidth required for a sector and has been proven to improve spectral efficiency and removes the burden of installing large number of radio units on the same tower. Therefore, PMP is more attractive for areas with high density of customer nodes and high throughput requirements.

WiConnect has an extensive knowledge and experience in the planning, deployment, and operation of PMP microwave networks. We had a long history in collaboration with main ICT service providers in the region to create city blanket coverage targeting corporate and enterprise customers for triple play services over wireless microwave bands.

WiConnect offers licensed and license exempted band PMP solutions in various configurations and offers

• In all available licensed bands 26 and 28 GHz.
• In license exempted sub-6 GHz band.

 

VSAT

VSAT is a short form for Very Small Aperture Terminals. There are three main components of the VSAT Technology – The Satellite, A Central Hub (With a Big Dish Antenna) and a number of smaller dish antennas kept at various remote locations that together form a Star topology using the satellite network. Therefore, basically, all the antennas communicate with the central hub through the satellite as the medium for such communications.

Remote access is the greatest strength of VSAT Networks. A satellite can provide connectivity to any remote location like ships at sea, remote coastal regions, mountains, and areas with no terrestrial connectivity.

WiConnect had several years of experience in the field of VSAT technology and have delivered VSAT solutions on turnkey project basis for key operators in the regions such as Mobily and STC. We planned the network, managed the spectrum , built the central hub , deployed hundreds of  VSAT terminals across a large geographical region and took care of the operations for many years.

WiConnect offers a wide variety of VSAT solutions which includes

 

WiFi Carrier Grade Solutions

WiFi networks have become the primary connectivity option for consumers, and consequently their expectations of quality of experience (QoE) for those networks have increased. Hence, today’s public WiFi networks plays a strategic role for telecom service providers to support high quality broadband services everywhere.

To serve network operators to realize their strategic goals , Wiconnect has partnered with key players in the market to offer service providers and enterprise customers with WiFi solutions that can maintain a consistent user experience across hotspots, a fully-integrated architecture, and tools to manage and monitor networks.

Wiconnect offers a wide portfolio of WiFi solutions which includes

• WiFi Indoor and Outdoor access points.
• public cloud, private cloud and on-premises WiFi network solutions.
• Cloud-based or on-premises software platform for secure, end-to-end network control.

 

Industrial IoT

Billions of devices are now connected around the world to internet and it is possible to turn anything, whatever is the size, into a part of the IoT. Connecting all these different objects and adding sensors to them adds a level of digital intelligence to devices that would be otherwise dumb, enabling them to communicate real-time data without involving a human being.

The use of smart sensors and actuators to enhance manufacturing and industrial processes leverages the power of smart machines and real-time analytics to take advantage of the data that dumb machines produce in industrial settings. Accordingly, they can communicate important information that can be used to drive business decisions faster and more accurately.

Without end-to-end communications, valuable data is not utilized effectively. These f data can be from 1 meter or further apart from fiber or wired or 3G/4G public network solutions are not always available or viable. WiConnect have partnership with key players in the area of industrial IOT and can deliver proven wireless network solutions from the field area network to the operations center in a ruggedized sustainable platform, that provides high reliability and security, with an attractive return on investment.

WiConnect can deliver a complete set of IIoT solution which consist of
