WISPer
"Client" Product options
Essentially
there are two Client categories - "WIB"
(WISP in a Box) and "HIB" (Hotspot in
a Box). From a technical perspective the WIB / HIB
Client device performs all necessary CORE NETWORK
functions for the operator - in the one physical
box, removing the need for routers, bandwidth managers,
network monitors etc. etc.
The
WIB or 'WISP in a Box' enables operators to deliver
contract based services to their customers/subscribers.
Subscribers typically sign a contract for a specific
service type and are billed on a regular basis for
same e.g. monthly or quarterly. The WIB enables
operators to define a broad range of connectivity
products, including leased line and high-end dedicated
bandwidth. It is therefore ideal for serving the
Corporate, Enterprise and SME markets as well as
residential.
The
HIB or 'Hotspot in a Box' enables operators to deliver
token or pre-paid services to their customers. Subscribers
typically purchase a token from a default portal
page or retail outlets. The HIB is ideal for serving
hotspots or for large scale metro Wi-Fi deployments.
