Motorola, Inc. announced two additional radio configurations for the MotoMesh product series of municipal wireless networks – the 2.4/5.4GHz and 2.4/4.9GHz versions of MotoMesh Duo, to expand its two radio meshed WiFi product, currently available in 2.4/5.8GHz configuration.
The additional radio options provide municipalities and network providers with more choices and greater flexibility to best meet the wireless application and coverage needs of end users. The 5.4GHz model addresses the needs of international customers while the 4.9GHz model introduces secure and dedicated mesh networking at a price public safety departments can appreciate.
“The ability to choose the best combination of meshed WiFi radios allows service providers and municipalities to cost-effectively address all of their customers’ needs,” said Roberta Wiggins, Yankee Group. “MotoMesh Duo is ideal for cities, big and small, that are looking to enable next generation solutions for public access, public safety, public works and enterprise.”
MotoMesh Duo, formerly named HotZone Duo, includes the addition of several new features to allow service providers to more easily respond to end user requirements. Beyond its small form factor, customization characteristics and spectrum flexibility, customers will find added features that provide more cost-effective and easier ways to manage WiFi networks.
“Meeting the needs of a wide variety of municipal wireless customers can be challenging. The ability to choose from a portfolio of cost-effective, customizable networks from one vendor is the right answer,” said Dustin Jurman, president, Rapid Systems, a municipal wireless service provider.
” MotoMesh Duo’s new hardware coupled with its new features enables complete customization and scalability regardless of network size, location or application.”
MotoMesh Duo recently received the Wireless Broadband Innovation Award for Best Wireless Broadband Mobility Solution further validating its performance, scalability and robustness.
Additionally, leveraging over 70 years of experience in outdoor wireless deployments and its unique mesh networks technology, Motorola has formally unveiled the MotoMesh product series, a complete portfolio of high performance, municipal, campus and enterprise wireless networks. Motorola’s MotoMesh product series includes MotoMesh Solo a single radio meshed network with Mobility Enabled Access, MotoMesh Duo, a two radio meshed network and MotoMesh Quattro, a four radio meshed network with Mobility Enabled Access.
