Cambium Networks: Connecting People, Places & Things

CIO Vendor India is evolving as a significant market for connectivity. Indoor and outdoor Wi-Fi with fixed wireless broadband infrastructure is a proven solution to deploy connectivity in a matter of days by extending the fibre core. Major driving factors behind the expansion include the government's focus on the Digital India campaign and Wi-Fi hotspots in rural areas, coupled with a surge in residential Wi-Fi needs owing to an increase in working from home during the pandemic. The government is committed to connecting each village with at least one Wi-Fi hotspot in more than 7.5 lakh villages as part of Digital India Initiative under Bharat Broadband Network Ltd. Also, the surge in demand due to work and education from home dramatically increased the need for last-mile connectivity from service providers.

Today, service providers, enterprises, and government agencies look for Wi-Fi solutions that can be rapidly deployed, are cost-efficient, and provide consistently reliable performance in both indoor and outdoor applications. In addition to providing Wi-Fi access, operators need to have unified network solutions that include not only the Wi-Fi access points (AP), but also the switches and backhaul infrastructure that connect the APs. With centralized management and automation, operators can best leverage their resources to manage the larger networks that scale to meet demand. With automation and unified management, they can provide the highest possible coverage and capacity at a low total cost of ownership.

One such company that excels in offering a complete solution with fixed wireless, Wi-Fi (indoor and outdoor), switches, and centralized management is Bangalore-based Cambium Networks. Cambium Networks is an industry leader in multi-gigabit fixed wireless and indoor & outdoor Wi-Fi solutions. "We know how to rapidly deploy Wi-Fi hotspots that deliver the capacity and coverage needed. Also, we provide a proven fixed wireless infrastructure that delivers multi-gigabit wireless infrastructure for Wi-Fi APs and associated switches in an integrated solution," says Rajiv Kapoor, Vice President, Cambium Networks.
