Airborne Last few miles Access

Extended reach

At Airborne, we see WiMax as a step-change in current business models of

• cellular infrastructure providers
• wireless network operators
• cable operators

It offers the opportunity to generate incremental revenue by reaching more customers and giving them a more reliable connection to the network and longer battery life.

High Quality Service for Triple Play Services to the Home or Business premises

In most networks, daisy chaining of base stations means a progressive loss of usable bandwidth as the number of hops increases.

Because the patented architecture of Airborne Evolution uses individual radios for backhaul, forward haul and access, there is almost no loss of bandwidth over multiple hops and no build up of latency.

This allows voice, data and internet to reach customers through one network at high bandwidth at much lower cost than has previously been possible, making the idea of a single connection to each home a real prospect.

Scalable GBN costs

Our true Mesh architecture means that GBN or mobile network points of presence are dictated by the amount of traffic to be backauled from the mesh, not by the restrictions in coverage imposed by point to multipoint solutions.

Extra GBN points of presence therefore only need to be installed when there is revenue there to justify them, not on initial rollout.

Broadband coverage can therefore be extended to areas which would previously not have been economically viable, when copper wire or cables were the only available options.

Bandwidth where your customers need it

Airborne base stations are small and light, allowing them to be mounted on street furniture, eliminating the coverage blackspots caused by “Canyons” in urban environments and allowing extended rural coverage to reach isolated areas, both at significantly less cost than with conventional base stations.

Because Airborne Evolution base stations can be mounted at street level, many households will be able to connect without any CPE, although this can be provided, with either WiFi or WiMax access and backhaul, as required.
