Bus Systems With Seamless Roaming
Hong Kong, September 12, 2007 - PePWave, innovator of Citywide Wi-Fi Broadband Internet products and solutions, today announced the official launch of their new, fast roaming product, PePWave Mobility.
With the rapid increase in demand for mobile high-speed data access, people expect to be connected wherever they go. Public safety, transit authorities, and city governments have real needs for mobile applications. Commuters especially want to be able to utilize their travel time to stay productive and informed. PePWave’s new Mobility allows their expectations to be satisfied in a cost effective platform, allowing for a mobile workforce, advanced real-time information systems, and expanded public Wi-Fi access.
The new Mobility has entered the market with advanced features and excellent performance at a significantly better price than other mobility solutions. Operators of all sizes can now afford to upgrade from Wi-Fi access in station areas, to Wi-Fi coverage during the whole length of passenger travel, thus presenting a first class customer experience. "The demand for fast mobile connectivity is undeniable, however few solutions today are cost effective enough to make sense," said Alex Chan, Managing Director at PePWave. "We have leveraged our experience in carrier Wi-Fi products to create a mobile platform that performs great and is also affordable."
Ultra-Fast Roaming for Seamless Mobile Connections
With its advanced roaming algorithms, the new PePWave Mobility is able to provide seamless multimedia transmission in motion at speeds of up to 75 miles/hour. The uniquely fast roaming capabilities make it a great solution for enabling Wi-Fi connectivity on fast moving transportation systems such as rail and bus systems.
By adding PePWave Mobility to an existing infrastructure, operators will have a simple solution to provide real-time streaming multimedia content on fast moving vehicles. Paired with a Wi-Fi Access Point such as the PePWave PolePoint, the Mobility will allow passengers to connect to a fast and reliable Wi-Fi connection.
Most Comprehensive Remote Management, Monitoring and Reporting
As with all PePWave models, PePWave Mobility can be remotely managed through PCMS, or PePWave Central Management System - an integrated suite of administration tools utilized by service providers to manage large-scale inventory and deployment of PePWave devices.
Flexible Customizations for Service Providers and ODM Customers
PePWave Mobility offers the same flexibility in customization and co-branding options under PePWave's Service Provider Program to service providers and ODM customers for meeting their time to market and customization needs.
