SmartBridges :: Wireless Network Products

Are you planning to deploy a Wide Area Network? Would you like to do it in the shortest time possible, with as less hassles as possible for deployment and at attractive costs?

Welcome to smartBridges. The preferred solutions partner for deploying Wide Area Wireless Networks.

Imagine covering an entire island with cables and wires. Possible, but it would take months, if not years. It would cause huge investment for deployment. Add to it, the cost of equipment and most would be ready to give up the idea. Now try to repeat the same for 200 islands!

The government of Maldives was facing a huge challenge when it decided to leap frog and provide Internet access to the all the people. The immediate answer was wireless. But, the question is, how to achieve this? The wireless market is flooded with products, but most of them focused on “Indoors” applications. The option of using indoor devices, with long-range antennae does exist. However, is this the right solution?

The island of Male required a complete wireless solution deployed across the city. This would give instant broadband access to users in offices, homes, schools, Government offices etc. Visitors, consultants and tourists to the island who carry laptops with either built in WiFi or as an add-on, would also have the ability to connect to the open node free of charge for the duration of their stay. Local Internet users would find the wireless features useful as more areas are covered with the airPoint PRO Outdoor, and users who may be in the more congested telephone circuit locales would also benefit from the new technology.

Further, it was also required to connect the various islands. The sea in between made it very difficult to lay cable/ wires for achieving network connectivity. Moreover, there were the questions of salt water, moisture, extreme weather to be answered.

To such a complex requirement, smartBridges presented the right solution – the Outdoor Wireless. No Other company has such a complete range of outdoor wireless products as smartBridges. The airPoint PRO outdoor span the area with their coverage, thus bringing entire island together on a single network.

High Speed, high reliability and High ruggedness make the smartBridges solution an absolute fit for deploying long distance networks.

Encased in a weatherproof NEMA 4X box, the rugged airPoint PRO Outdoor is indeed the best solution for the Island, for it easily withstands the frequently harsh weather conditions of high rain, winds and tropical heat! Built to withstand temperatures ranging from -40 Deg C to 65 Deg C, the airPoint PRO Outdoor is the perfect solution for this tropical paradise.

smartBridges covered the entire capital city island of the Maldives with its solution. The whole island is spanned by the wireless network equipment from smartBridges. airPoint PRO Outdoor and airBridge are placed at strategic locations all over the island. Now the race is on to cover the rest of the islands and also provide backhaul links amongst the islands.
