Industries 

Utilities, Oil & Gas

Electric, water, gas utilities and oil and gas companies, share a common problem—the need to improve performance of their real-time processes and operations.  Developing innovative real-time processes using field communication infrastructure is a monumental shift in direction of the industry.  Energy companies will continue to try, because the benefits greatly outweigh the risks and costs of these investments.

Rural Broadband

The Last Mile wireless solution offers over-the-air broadband internet service to communities and businesses that do not have a feasible wired connection alternative to the internet.  Innovative wireless networks are being constructed by service providers using new radio technology in new frequency bands, in order to provide broadband internet service to rural communities.

Public Sector & Safety

Public safety agencies need to communicate, collaborate and operate with each other, regardless of location or device using broadband wireless, for faster and more precise critical decision-making and improved community safety.  This innovative approach may be accomplished with reliable, scalable wireless network communications between mobile radio base stations and agency sites to enhance interoperability and efficiency.

Transportation

The Transportation industry is challenged by the growth of road traffic and the increasing inconvenience caused by congestion, which requires a substantially more efficient use of the infrastructure. Advanced solutions will require a wireless communications infrastructure for vehicles communicating with roadside base stations.  This will require extensive use of mobile radio communication, in addition to the extension of conventional services, such as personal telephony and wireless email, to mobile subscribers. Wireless communications will be at the heart of the solution for the Advanced Traffic Management Systems and Public Transportation Systems.

Industrial & Manufacturing

Industrial and Manufacturing sectors need a reliable communications link between field assets and a centralized management control system.  The communication infrastructure that connects these assets to the central management control system has often been deployed in a piecemeal basis on the device, application, cost, carrier service availability, location and time of deployment.  Compounding the problem, suppliers and carriers are forced to rely on aging and obsolete technologies – often times spanning broad geographic and disparate conditions; resulting in few opportunities to build a private, secure and integrated communication system.
