The prospects for WiMAX technology as a viable business opportunity are also the subject of debate among the many challenges, real or perceived. Applying these innovative insights can disappear these issues and challenges.
Unlike the expectations of people in rural facilities, may direct the enterprises in urban areas. There are several reasons for this:
• This is a growing demand for the economy is to ensure traffic can be balanced by gangVoice, applications and uploading of large files.
• There is a small but growing demand for services separately last mile. Currently, however, many cable service providers have, everybody uses the office last mile infrastructure based on the location of the nearest telephone exchange if you have paid for an expensive dig from the nearest exchange. This leads to single points of failure and the possibility of business communication are, for the day, as it happened, that is with aConduct fire away somewhere in speech.
Environment worst-case scenario would be a very high density urban area with many buildings more disturbing is fiber optic networks, ADSL and SDSL in every exchange, hundreds of competing suppliers, a restrictive planning regime with many properties "in" the buildings, and no spare frequencies for FWA, except the public 5.8GHz band.
To do this, is how competition from other suppliers, the model to have a negative impact. Ithas to offer, the things that businesses need (such as QoS, VoIP, Toll-quality, high-quality video, bandwidth, symmetrical, increased capacity and network separation etc) at a lower price.
This means stripping all unnecessary costs from the model. You can enjoy a quality RF planning tool that gives you a big advantage over other operators - maps exactly where the antenna can service you offer the customer, etc bandwidth that can be achieved, according to the base station. Youneed to know exactly how to tune the base stations to avoid the danger spots - without a team of RF.
While Wi-Fi and WiMAX are often confused, are very different from a point of view of the operator. Wi-Fi is plug and play without any control by the wireless interface. WiMAX is no longer behaves like an ATM network carrier. Wi-Fi is built into laptops and mobile phones, while FWA WiMAX requires larger standalone receivers (the client should focus on rooftops for optimum utilty assembly).
TheAdvantage is that WiMAX is very spectrally efficient, at least 50% more than 3G networks, but that data is much higher carrying capacity in the limited spectrum. All parties Wi-Fi work the same spectrum of the public - WiMAX is a broad spectrum. Wi-Fi offers a service on a range of 100m, offering WiMAX meet your needs at 10Mbps over a range of 1.3 kilometers from a base station non-line-of sight.
WiMAX can provide carrier-class networks, Wi-Fi can not - even with mesh networks. However, with Wi-FiBackhaul WiMAX is some of the benefits of WiMAX as a backhaul, such as VPN. Many customers of WiMAX devices with built-in Wi-Fi Internet
Do not wait for mobile (802.16), WiMAX - their experiences with providers may be that they are about fourteen months to two years behind on the promised delivery date, and further delays occur, could the most important requirements. Do not expect good enough for 802.16 devices on a network with the end of 2007 to build the first and the CPE are not usableuntil 2008 - as is the mobile phone battery life is crucial and takes time to do it correctly.
They are big enough markets for FWA hours. The most important thing is to make scarce resources first tomb - Spectrum, etc. - and they sell. Except for the underdeveloped countries without a mobile operator, mobile WiMAX to be very difficult to determine against incumbents with large installed base since the sum of the areas covered, the customer - this is not aConsideration for FWA.
