Simplicity for Small Hot Spots
The Challenge
In a small hot spot location such as a café, restaurant or book
store, local technical support is limited or non-existent. However, the
technical issues associated with maintaining broadband access, accounting
and billing, and access point availability are identical to larger installations.
Separate router, gateway, and access point equipment present additional
expense and complexity. Hence, simplicity adds greatly to the affordability
of hot spot network equipment, and to consistent availability of Wi-Fi
service at a small hot spot.
The Solution
Proxim is the only provider of a single-device hot-spot-in-a-box. For
single cell deployments, the ORiNOCO AP-2500 access point solves the
key issues of customer acquisition, service provisioning, and billing
faced by providers. This Wi-Fi unit integrates a wireless access point
and access gateway functionality into a single, affordable unit. Installation
and maintenance of a single unit are dramatically simpler, allowing
quick deployment of hot spot service. This is ideal for the small business
owner as well as for the service provider provisioning multiple distributed,
small venue locations.
