Looking to build out broadband wireless? Are the licensed airwaves proving too difficult or expensive to secure? Fortunately, there is an answer: unlicensed solutions, which are market-tested in broadband wireless networks in more than 120 countries.

The pervasive myth that unlicensed spectrum means unreliable service is simply that: a myth. Thanks to new technologies, and with careful planning and network design, it’s now possible to achieve optimum reliability in the unlicensed spectrum. To boot, new frequency options, such as the recent availability of the 5.4GHz band in the United States, opened in June, add to the opportunity.

This Webinar will cover the benefits of an unlicensed spectrum strategy, the many options for executing that strategy, and what operators need to know to achieve reliability. Whether you’re a wireless operator looking to extend your footprint, a smaller carrier looking to add wireless, or somewhere in between, unlicensed broadband wireless networks represent a cost-effective fount of opportunity.

Service providers will discover:

• How they can leverage the unlicensed frequency bands for wireless broadband

• The business case behind going with an unlicensed strategy

• How to choose the right technology for their needs within the
unlicensed world of options

• How to identify the right frequency scenario, including determining the right band, frequency and technology for specific deployment characteristics, such as geography, application and density

• What challenges exist when designing for reliability, and what operators need to be aware of in order to avoid issues like interference, crowded frequencies and more
