Solutions for Smart Cities*

Around the world, governments are sponsoring “Smart City” initiatives to increase safety and improve city services.

These programs are prioritizing the technologies that are proven to measurably improve the quality of life, increase efficiency and reduce cost to the community. These initiatives are not limited to large urban areas. In fact, some of the most dramatic achievements have been made in smaller communities where applications are deployed in “greenfield” environments. Smart cities invest in technologies that enable collaboration. Communities can share sensor data, and leverage a common IP-based communications infrastructure.

Wireless broadband provides the high-speed connectivity needed, and provides a proven solution that can be deployed at a fraction of the cost and time of fibre or wired connectivity.

Smart cities will rely on consolidated information systems, and hence effective, reliable, secure and high-speed communication networks will form the foundation. Cambium Networks, fixed wireless, Wi-Fi and industrial internet solutions integrate voice, video, email, and web traffic alongside supervisory control and data acquisition (SCADA) data from remote terminal units (RTU), sensors and control points on a single all-IP network featuring centralised, cloud-based, end to end administration.
