OmniRural™, an innovative IP-based integrated outdoor solution, extends the reach of broadband from the edge of a metro area to remote, low-density locations.
Operators can expand their customer base and increase their revenue stream through the launch of advanced telecommunication services in underserved areas, in a rapid, risk-free and cost-effective manner.
In each Point of Presence (PoP), OmniRural™ seamlessly integrates advanced Access and Transmission systems, depending on the specific characteristics of the area and the customers to be served.
OmniRural™ combines the most advanced technologies to simplify the design, implementation and operation of a network realizing the Universal Service goal:
(Fig.1) OmniRural's inherent flexibility allows rapid network deployment to reach the most distant users.
Fig.1 depicts a typical OmniRural™ deployment incorporating the following components:
The transport network is the part of OmniRural™ that connects a metro area (i.e. a fiber ring) with a distribution or access area, through interim repeater nodes.
The access network is the part of OmniRural™ that serves users through appropriate terminals. Nodes, providing local access and simultaneously serving as repeaters, accommodate both backhaul and access equipment.
POTS / ADSL2+ access technologies fit local and close-by copper access applications, while WiMAX technology is preferred for longer distances.
Sparsely distributed households and medium / large villages with increased requirements (more subscribers, higher capacity, nomadicity, etc.) can utilize licensed mobile WiMAX as the main access technology.
