Hopling Technologies
announces WebNet CWN’s Launch of a
Metropolitan Wireless
Network in Abbotsford, Canada
using Hopling Technologies
Mesh Networking Equipment
Abbotsford, BC, and Almere, the Netherlands, October 9, 2006
- Hopling Technologies, a fast growing technology leader in
IP-based wireless networking equipment for enterprises,
operators and service providers, and WebNet Converged
Wireless Network (WebNet CWN), a leading metropolitan Wi-Fi
mesh network developer, today announced High-Speed wireless
Internet access availability for Abbotsford, BC, Canada.
Unlike many municipal wireless mesh networks being
announced, WebNet CWN works closely with local government
officials, but funds the network planning, build out and
network management with private investment capital, so there
is no risk to taxpayers for building citywide wireless mesh
networks that cover entire cities.
Abbotsford is the first city to be announced in WebNet CWN’s
plans to become one of the first nationwide wireless
carriers in North America. WebNet CWN plans to build
wireless mesh networks in 25 Canadian cities, plus an
additional 100 markets in the United States, for a total of
125 territories. The wireless network will cover more than
30 million customers and pose a serious threat to 3G
carriers nationwide that cannot deliver on their promise to
deliver true broadband wireless connections above 1 Mbps.
WebNet CWN’s metropolitan mesh networks provide a bundle of
cost-effective wireless services to choose from, including:
-
High-Speed Internet Access Service
-
Voice over IP Telephone Service
-
Video Verified Security Service
-
On Demand IP Television Service
-
IP Mobile Phones (WiFi Cell Phones)
WebNet CWN’s high-speed wireless
service enables connections with almost any type of computing
device configured with an antenna in an outdoor environment.
Customers that want to receive the wireless Internet connection
indoors require a fixed antenna to be mounted on the exterior of
their building.
“The deployment of WebNet’s home-town Abbotsford is the first
step of a nationwide network we are building across Canada and
the United States,” said Gregory C. Carrington,
WebNet CWN’s President and CEO.
“In addition to the Abbotsford market, we have sold out 12
territories in Canada and should be bringing them online as
quickly as possible. In addition, we are seeking business
partners that would like to get involved with the hottest sector
in the telecommunications business, metropolitan mesh networks.”
“The
deployment of Hopling Technologies’ mesh networking equipment in
Abbotsford demonstrates that people, businesses and government
agencies want and need seamless wireless covered areas,” said
Frank Koopman, chief executive officer at Hopling Technologies.
“Our proven mesh network technology creates a complete IP-based
wireless networking solution that enables WebNet CWN to bring
applications and services to customers not currently available
on today’s wireless and wired networks.”
WebNet CWN has deployed Hopling Technologies wireless routers on
strategic locations throughout Abbotsford to form the city’s
first metropolitan mesh network that is operated and optimized
using Hopling Technologies wireless network management platform,
a suite of end-to-end configuration, monitoring and maintenance
tools. WebNet CWN is also utilizing Hopling Technologies pre-WiMAX
point-to-point radios for high-speed backhaul between the
wireless mesh network nodes.
