Responding to demand from a Fortune 500 Company
March 5, 2015 – Ottawa, Canada – Edgewater Wireless Systems Inc. (TSX-V: YFI), the manufacturer of multi-channel WiFi3 technology for high-density WiFi applications responds to demand from a Fortune 500 Company for its patented technology. The Company is pleased to announce the launch a WiFi3 Development Kit to enable other equipment manufactures (OEM) to develop and license Edgewater’s patented multi-channel Wi-Fi technology.
Edgewater’s WiFi3 Development Kit provides OEMs, and innovators of all sizes, an all-in-one prototyping pack than includes Edgewater’s latest multi-channel Wi-Fi technology combined with a license and support package. The development kit allows for easy integration and licensing of Edgewater’s multi-channel technology into various high volume products including Access Points, Small Cells, Distributed Antenna Systems and Networking Hardware.
“With the average tech user carrying 2.9 wireless devices and the growth of the Internet of Things (IoT), the density of Wi-Fi clients is growing at a staggering pace,” said Duane Anderson, Chairman and Chief Technology Officer for Edgewater Wireless. “Edgewater’s WiFi3 Development Kit is specifically geared toward OEM’s / vendors struggling to address the growing Wi-Fi client density issue while delivering the quality of service required by sensitive applications like VoWiFi.”
Like a single lane road, traditional Wi-Fi solutions rely on a single channel architecture, making them susceptible to congestion particularly in high-density environments. Using standards compliant Wi-Fi, Edgewater’s patented WiFi3 technology enables multiple, concurrent channels per radio and, like a multi-lane superhighway, dramatically improves end user quality of service in high-density Wi-Fi applications.
Using a patented approach to mitigate Adjacent Channel Interference (ACI) and Co-Channel Interference (CCI), WiFi3 powered solutions deliver the highest channel density on the market today while offering advanced carrier-class capabilities including integrated, real-time spectral monitoring. Known as Spectral Surveillance Architecture (SSA), Edgewater’s WiFi3 feature-set dramatically reduces operating expenses (OPEX) for carriers and large enterprises alike.
“The launch of the WiFi3 Development Kit unlocks licensing opportunities for Edgewater and positions our technology for volume integration into OEM solutions,” said Andrew Skafel, President and CEO of Edgewater Wireless. “We have a lead order and plan to ship in our first quarter 2015. We’re really pleased to execute on another phase of our growth strategy.”
