Municipalities

---

Towns and municipalities often have a wide variety of applications that require network connectivity, including:

• Municipal WiFi coverage
• Building connectivity of city hall, library, offices, local police etc.
• Building coverage
• Video surveillance
• Traffic control
• Access to mobile workers
• Aggregation to meter reading

By creating their own access network, towns are able to save on high leased line expenses.

Municipalities need to save on infrastructure set up costs, where wireless networks have an inherent advantage. However, municipal networks are required to provide as wide coverage as possible in order to cover the entire territory. In addition, high capacity network is required in order to handle several applications simultaneously.

Wavion solution for municipalities creates a high capacity network with extended coverage. The solution is based on Wavion WBS wireless broadband base stations, which utilize Wavion’s unique and powerful beamforming technology.

Spare network capacity can be used by the municipality to provide wireless internet access to its citizens, as a complementary service. This type of gesture goes a long way in people's perception of their municipal service.

Municipalities are often able to utilize strategic building such as water towers and public buildings to place the WBS base stations. These strategic locations can provide even better network coverage.

The efficient coverage, offered by Wavion’s spatially adaptive beamforming technology requires significantly fewer base stations to cover a square kilometer. This translates to tremendous reduction in network infrastructure costs.

Key benefits

• Low cost of ownership for infrastructure deployment as well as maintenance
• Support of multiple applications on a single broadband network
• Improved coverage, with up to 3 times the coverage of conventional AP
• Easy installation requiring minimal alignments, which is critical in difficult-to-reach places such as light poles
