The Hopling Metro Topology solution enables seamless metropolitan and event-based coverage, leveraging the advantages of wireless Mesh, wireless Access and Mobile WiMAX such as mobility, high throughput, low cost, and the ubiquity of client devices. With the introduction of automatic self-configurable wireless indoor and outdoor nodes, enterprises can deploy a wireless network solution in a matter of hours without the need for per node wiring or installation specialists.

The company's superior wireless mesh solution deploys an innovative method for routing IP packets between nodes. Simply adding another node will extend the range of the wireless metropolitan area network thus creating a seamless broadband internet network. The seamless network provides bandwidth control, roaming, automatic configuration, push content functionality, universal access methods, radius services, access security and 3G gateways.
 

Mesh networks with wireless Access have proven their merits in providing outdoor coverage in metropolitan areas. Mesh networks entail connecting clusters of base stations (today capable of handling wireless Mesh and wireless Access) to a backhaul network for fewer interconnections and significantly lower transport costs. Traditional WiFi uses unlicensed spectrum, so interference from other local equipment in the same spectrum may affect actual wireless Access performance, but wireless Mesh (the backbone of the mesh network) and wireless Access are both today also available as a carrier-grade wireless access method in the licensed bands.

While today’s licensed and unlicensed mesh networks are based on wireless Mesh (the backbone of the mesh network) and wireless Access, Mobile WiMAX is expected to play a role in the near future. Although traditional Mobile WiMAX architecture calls for a cabled backhaul connection to each base station, innovative companies like Hopling Technologies are looking to adapt Mobile WiMAX base stations for operation as new wireless mesh nodes.

Through its innovative Hopling Metro Topology solution, Hopling Technologies integrates WiMAX picocells in its existing robust wireless Mesh network design, thus creating a seamless working wireless meshed network where true mobility is not a gamble but a reality, and where wireless Access interoperability and connectivity is guaranteed.
