ClearMesh Networks: High-capacity wireless mesh.

Solutions for
Wireless Internet Service Providers

The ClearMesh Metro Grid™ provides wireless Internet service providers (WISPs) with a substantial incremental revenue opportunity because it expands their service portfolio into high-margin business services.

The Metro Grid is a secure, interference-free and license-free complement to existing RF networks. As a high-capacity wireless bandwidth distribution mesh, it enables WISPs to offer business-grade Ethernet services at speeds ranging from 5 to 100 Mbps.

With the Metro Grid solution, a small up-front investment of $5,000 - $10,000 can turn the roof-top of a fiber-lit building into a wireless point-of-presence (POP), from which fiber-quality business services can be distributed to surrounding buildings or business parks in a metropolitan area. With provisioning time of just a few days, the ClearMesh Metro Grid is a "pay-as-you-grow" solution – enabling service providers to purchase and install equipment as subscribers sign up.

For traditional ISPs, the wireless Metro Grid represents an opportunity to improve margins. According to a recent study by Jeffries & Company, service providers who own their own networks typically enjoy gross margin revenues of 50%; as compared with 30% for smart-build switch carriers, 21% for switch-based resellers, and only 9% for switchless resellers. The Metro Grid enables ISPs to enjoy higher margins without making the investment in a large infrastructure build-out.
