Edgewater Wireless Recognized for WiFi3™ Next Generation Access Point Technology
May 23, 2013, Ottawa, Canada – Edgewater Wireless Systems Inc., (YFI;TSX.V) the global
leader in WiFi3™ next generation WiFi technology, was chosen to receive the Frost and Sullivan
2013 New Product Innovation Award for the company’s next generation WiFi3™ Access Point
Products. Each year, Frost & Sullivan presents this award to the company that demonstrates
innovation excellence in next generation WiFi technology.
“The innovative element of WiFi3™ Access Points is its ability to support three independent and
asynchronous 802.11 wireless channels. Edgewater Wireless positions itself uniquely by
subdividing each wireless channel into four virtual channels and has equipped each channel with
its own level of encryption, service set identification (SSID) or quality of service (QoS) setting,”
said Naam Nastaien, Industry Analyst with Frost & Sullivan “These features would enable each
channel to deliver data at exponential throughput of 50 times more than the conventional
single-channel access points which is why we recognized Edgewater Wireless with the New
Product Innovation Award.”
In the first 18 months of operation, Edgewater Wireless is achieving significant growth in the
global WiFi and Wireless markets. The company maintains over 20 patents on Edgewater
Wireless WiFi3™ technology and is the only company that can enable 3 channels on a single WiFi
radio – delivering up to 50X performance improvement when compared against single channel
WiFi technology.
“Receiving this award from Frost & Sullivan so early in Edgewater Wireless’ evolution is a
tremendous accomplishment for the company,” said Duane Anderson, Chairman of Edgewater
Wireless. “Beyond the strong performance improvements our technology delivers, WiFi3™
enabled access points are also delivering excellent value for our customers – reducing
operational costs by decreasing the amount of equipment required to support users and
maximizing their revenue by layering apps and services they simply can’t achieve with
competitor equipment.”
Edgewater Wireless WiFi3™ technology enables 3-channels on a single radio – leveraging over 20
industry leading patents. WiFi3™ technology delivers up to 50 times greater performance vs
traditional WiFi by mitigating issues of Adjacent Channel Interference which dramatically
impacts traditional WiFi performance. In addition to improved performance, WiFi3™ delivers
industry leading capabilities such as the integrated Spectral Surveillance Architecture (SSA™),
Edgewater’s integrated, real time spectral monitoring feature which dramatically reduces
operational expenses for service providers.
