GigXone Improves Access to Wireless Broadband And Video Services

belair networks [1]BelAir Networks [1] large-scale Wi-Fi [2] and multi-access small cell wireless systems [3] for mobile and fixed service providers, and the only company focused solely on service provider customers, today announced the latest enhancements to its recently announced GigXone™ small cell wireless system [4]. System improvements speed up and simplify the deployment and management of tens of 1000s of network access points (APs) while optimizing video-based applications and services.

New features also address service provider requirements for tighter integration with existing mobile and fixed service provider access and core networks. This integration simplifies secure access to Wi-Fi and multi-access metro networks for subscribers, partner-roaming networks, and enables new managed services to small and medium businesses, hospitality and education segments. The GigXone system already integrates with service providers’ existing core network and leading gateway vendors.

“Our customers are asking for integration and scalability features to help speed the deployment of Wi-Fi to help make the existing service provider networks better for their customers,” said Bernard Herscovich, President and CEO, BelAir Networks. “With the GigXone system, service providers can offer ‘Gig Zone’ indoor and outdoor services with improved network capacity for millions of subscribers, addressing video and other rich applications that consume 60 – 70% of capacity, without the need to retrofit core or access networks to work with systems built for indoor enterprise Wi-Fi access.”

GigXone system integration features and improvements include:

Core Integration:

Management and Scaling:

BelAir Networks unique AP virtualization capabilities give service providers the ability to leverage one network deployment many times. With Virtual AP, each AP can support different and segregated services by assigning unique SSIDs by network, group, zone and individual subscriber, enforcing a service provider’s existing policy and billing settings. Virtual AP also enables service providers to offer a variety of managed services to subscribers, businesses, schools, building owners, and other service providers via shared or hosted network access – unlocking billions of revenues from emerging Wireless-as-a-Service (WaaS) business models.

The GigXone system is a robust portfolio of outdoor and indoor APs and multi-access small cells, backhaul and mounting options, as well as network and zone controllers for carrier cloud, managed services, stadium and ad-hoc event deployments. GigXone features a highly scalable network management system and tools with support for remote updating of AP software, and business intelligence [8] for network insight and monitoring.
