2.4 million Silicon Valley residents enjoy free high-speed Wi-Fi service-Wi-Fi, Mesh, Wireless Applications - Communications Industry

Reputation for innovation in IT, known source of Silicon Valley, California, a huge wireless network plan is being implemented. In this piece of the total area of more than 3900 square kilometers of land, broadband wireless mesh networks (Mesh) will be connected to 2.4 million residents, to provide them with ubiquitous wireless network access Service And a large number of new services to the public.

  2006 9 5, Cisco Together with IBM, SeaKay, and AzulstarNetworks jointly won the nation's largest wireless mesh network project. In Cisco's most advanced wireless LAN (WLAN) Wi-Fi technology, support, sub- Cloth Four counties in the Silicon Valley among the more than 40 medium and small cities, united through this project. Local government and local municipalities within the jurisdiction can provide high-speed wireless network to access services for Internet data, 240 million people to provide free Wi-Fi service.

In this project, Cisco offers the industry's most intensive R & D results, and most Security Reliable wireless connectivity technology. Because Cisco had before the construction of the highest levels of application support for all the network system to run stock, defense systems, and Internet backbone networks, wireless mesh network project in Silicon Valley will benefit from these experiences, and become strong beyond imagination and security.

Mesh set off the wave of wireless applications Wireless mesh network (WirelessMesh) the reason was favored by Silicon Valley's wireless city project, is its variety of unique technical advantages. Since the majority of wireless access point (accesspoints) no longer need to physically interconnect via wired, replaced by a grid through the wireless link to connect, it will be those closely linked to the wireless access point, Then come back to spread to wired networks.

"Wireless Mesh technology is important because it can not cover a large cable network area Geography Context-based wireless broadband services. "Cisco's senior director of marketing for the global market AlanS. Cohen explained.

"In theory, many cities today you'll be able to Computer Connected to the Internet. However, end users, lot of thought was the need to consider what kind of medium (connection). "Yankee Group analyst Zeus Kerr, Vice President av ala that "wireless mesh network (Mesh) technology to provide seamless city-wide connectivity, more convenient and easier to put more personnel and equipment connected in real time."

Strong market-driven forces are widely deployed wireless local area network, allowing it access to homes and businesses. Now in the wireless mesh network (Mesh) technology with the help of the deployment of outdoor wireless technology is a technology driven new wave.

Today, the United States, local governments and municipal authorities, after installing outdoor wireless mesh networks can provide Internet access for local residents based on the environment to facilitate the deployment of a large number of new advanced services - in the past, these Applications can usually only be achieved in indoor networks.

In Madison, Wisconsin, Mayor Dave Cieslewicz Table Said they have deployed wireless mesh network, which advocates for the city in terms of innovation is a very correct choice.

"Madison is always try to use the new technology pioneer, and we are very proud of." DaveCieslewicz mayor said, "Recently, our municipal wireless networks to create a very effective Communication Platform. "Madison recently Cellnet Technology Inc. and Cisco network services with the help of the successful completion of a wireless mesh network.

Addition to the public, tourists Business Provide Internet access, the Madison City also intends to use this network while achieving security and municipal regulation of public services, such as automatic meter reading, police communications area, tracking the city garbage collection trucks and so on.

"Our goal is to build textbook Madison's municipal Wi-Fi networking standard model", DaveCieslewicz mayor explained, "We believe that wireless mesh network will provide us with new opportunity to promote local economic development, improve public security, improve the efficiency of city supervision, strengthen the public, tourists Student The online experience "

"We have deployed in nearly 40 Wireless Cities project, we found that network-based applications is varied, from video Monitor , Real-time access to people working data, as well as built-in Wi-Fi capabilities of the parking meters in the Internet. "Alan S. Cohen said," Just think, you no longer need to pay to run around the parking fees. "

Lebanon, Oregon City, local leaders also want a flexible communications platform for up to improve public security and urban regulatory responsiveness, they also hope that this platform can promote local economic development. Information Services Manager TomOliver realized that a city-wide wireless network can be relatively inexpensive way to achieve both objectives. Lebanon City and a private operator (PEAKInternet, experienced local wireless operators), to install the Cisco wireless mesh network.

They also intend to have the existing network will Mobile End of the police, public service vehicles to connect up. In this way, patrol, city managers can connect to their existing wireless network background IT applications, and give full play to the advantages of field work, communications and converged IP applications such as streaming video mode.

"As the mobile terminal site wireless manner a report is submitted, we will greatly enhance the work efficiency." Tom Oliver said with confidence.

Mesh mode of potential applications Wireless mesh network, the core strengths is its access to numerous U.S. government favored causes, in addition to its low cost but also Package Including centralized management, multi-band wireless devices, security, and universal service, and many other advantages.

While hiding behind a wireless mesh network is also the potential applications of technology to promote Mesh important reason, it can be divided into a variety of modes:

Productivity: outdoor wireless mesh network will help the city improve efficiency. City supervisors for routine work in an outdoor location and easy access to background information, patrol police in carrying out its mandate to submit work in real-time
