Spectrum Slicing™ is Edgewater’s patented technology that enables multiple concurrent channels on a single radio. Unlike traditional Wi-Fi, which supports only one channel per band, Spectrum Slicing™ unlocks parallel data streams — reducing interference, boosting throughput, and transforming network efficiency.

How does Spectrum Slicing™ improve performance in real-world environments?

In residential pilots and large-scale trials, Spectrum Slicing™ has delivered 7–18x better performance, with up to 50% less latency and contention. This isn’t lab theory — it’s validated in dense, real-life scenarios like the 750K-home Liberty Global pilot.

Yes. Only Edgewater-enabled access points need upgrading — no changes to end-user devices or core infrastructure. Our silicon integrates easily into current architectures to deliver immediate results.

Ideal partners include Tier-1 cable operators, telcos, OEMs, and chipset vendors seeking higher QoE, lower churn, and enhanced performance — especially in high-density residential markets.

It drives cost savings by reducing support calls, deferring network upgrades, and increasing customer retention. In a market where user experience is king, Spectrum Slicing™ creates measurable ROI.

Edgewater is the only provider of silicon with native multi-channel, concurrent operation — a breakthrough we call Multi-Flex MLO. It’s built for modern density without the complexity of redesigning the whole network.

We’ve partnered with industry leaders — including CableLabs, Liberty Global, BBC, and the EU Space Agency — to co-innovate, influence standards, and validate real-world performance at scale.

Absolutely. Spectrum Slicing™ works alongside existing and next-gen Wi-Fi standards, delivering additive value without compromising compatibility.

Using AI-managed multi-channel operation, Spectrum Slicing™ minimizes device contention, improves streaming quality, and stabilizes performance — even in modern homes overloaded with smart devices.

We offer SDKs, developer support, API access, and full integration guidance for OEMs and service providers — helping partners accelerate time-to-market and maximize deployment success.
