Many carriers have access to WiMAX spectrum, and some have even deployed WiMAX infrastructure. However, in many cases they have run into challenges. WiMAX CPE’s are expensive. Penetration and coverage are not what they should be. Meraki has a solution that can help.
Improve WiMAX Economics
WiMAX is an excellent backhaul technology. However, the lack of client devices and difficulty providing indoor coverage make it an expensive last-mile technology. A hybrid WiMAX/WiFi mesh network can substantially improve the economics of WiMAX service.
Increase Coverage
A high density WiFi mesh works around obstacles, reduces line-of-site requirements, and decreases the number of expensive WiMAX base stations needed to obtain good coverage.
Leverage the WiFi installed Base
There are over 400 million WiFi clients shipped each year, including laptops, mobile devices, and wired PCs. Meraki enables you to serve this large installed base without additional client hardware.
