The ever-expanding portfolio of Calix GigaSpire systems enable you to meet your subscribers’ unique requirements.
In 93 percent of deployments, only one GigaSpire BLAST system is required for complete Wi-Fi coverage. Why ask subscribers to buy additional pods or extenders when you can supply them with a single GigaSpire BLAST system?
New Wi-Fi systems can be deployed quickly and easily, thanks to the Revenue EDGE platform. You can offer your subscribers appealing new services and applications on an ongoing basis, allowing you to beat the competition with constant innovation.
The GigaSpire® BLAST portfolio includes multiple Wi-Fi 6E systems. All are designed with simple plug-and-play connectivity, snapping right into the Revenue EDGE ecosystem.
Let your subscribers take advantage of the new 6 GHz spectrum and benefit from uninterrupted connectivity and reduced latency.
—Ken Johnson, chief executive officer, Wahkiakum West
Wi-Fi 6E is designed to provide subscribers with uninterrupted connectivity and reduced latency, thanks to the addition of the 6 GHz frequency.
This podcast, hosted by Mark Vena from SmartTech Research, discusses the challenges, benefits, and opportunities that Wi-Fi 6E represents for both subscribers and service providers.
“We want to offer the best possible service to our customers and 6E is the key to our future. With more available channels, less contention, and the ability to serve even the latest consumer and business devices, anything else is half measures.”
The introduction of additional, unlicensed spectrum (using the 6 GHz band) means faster, more reliable connections for the next generation of connected devices.This whitepaper provides more details on this development.
Wi-Fi 6E is the only way to get access to the dedicated bandwidth, less interference, and better performance that your subscribers need to power their cutting-edge devices and bandwidth-intensive applications.
