Capture Metro Wireless Opportunities

Hundreds of U.S. cities are setting up metropolitan-area wireless networks. You can benefit from this opportunity to advise municipalities and help them deploy wireless broadband networks based on wireless mesh technology.

ServiceMesh is an integrated, tested, and manageable end-to-end system (shown in Figure 1) that securely and dynamically provisions subscriber access and value-added services across wireless mesh networks. The solution allows Service Providers to move quickly from proposal to profitability while working closely with municipalities and other partners. Unlike other wireless vendors who offer only wireless access products, Cisco ServiceMesh saves Service Providers the headache of testing the integration with back-end components to manage and monetize end-users and the services they desire. With this integrated platform, you can:

• Create highly secure, high-speed wireless network systems
• Enable fast delivery of services
• Increase municipality productivity and responsiveness
• Provide flexible, scalable network architecture for multiple applications and customer groups
• Enjoy low total cost of ownership (TCO)

Cisco ServiceMesh helps you move quickly from proposal to profitability while working closely with municipalities and partners. Solution features and benefits include:

• Cost-effectively deploy and operate the access network: To reduce total cost of ownership, Cisco ServiceMesh networks feature a centralized control architecture that dynamically responds to varying conditions, and provides optimal route selection in the event of failures or radio-environment changes
• Combine indoor and outdoor wireless networks: The solution lets you integrate the control and monitoring of networks, as well as use policies and application mobility across networks
• Manage access to the network: Whether free access, prepaid access, subscriptions, or corporate contract users, Cisco ServiceMesh manages identification and subsequent monitoring and enforcement of the agreed service
• Offer applications to multiple customer groups from one converged platform: Simplify network and policy design involved in offering many different applications to municipalities, small businesses, wholesale resellers, or consumers
• Provision services from integrated components: Designing portal pages, setting up payment platforms, logging subscribers details, controlling service levels per subscriber, and enforcing agreements—all back-end functionality is integrated into Cisco ServiceMesh
