Wireless Services for Mobile and Fixed Applications If you’re a municipality looking for advanced metro-scale wireless services and technologies, then you’ve come to the right place. The mission of 4G Metro, LLC is to design, deploy, operate and maintain metro mesh wireless networks providing:
Leading-edge wireless services for public transit
City-wide WiFi services for fixed and mobile users
What are Metro Mesh Wireless Services?
Metro mesh is a wireless network topology that is gaining popularity in urban and suburban areas. Laptops, PDAs, IP phones and other wireless devices communicate with each other using standard WiFi (802.11a and g) protocols; the “mesh” is a Layer-3 protocol that allows the network to be dynamic – automatically shifting users between radio bands on a common network as required by the environment.
What is Metro Mesh For?
The Mesh Network Specialists of 4G Metro implement seamless, metropolitan-scale mesh networks in order to bring innovative wireless services to municipalities – wireless services such as:
Mobile Internet access
Residential and small business broadband Internet access
Video surveillance
Wireless meter reading
WiFi phone access
Bottom-Line Benefits for Municipalities.
Separate communities of users – police, field workers, even private citizens – can operate independently, and securely, on a single segmented metro mesh network. In this way a municipality is able to maximize the utility of its high-speed wireless mesh network and realize the greatest possible returns.
