What can Starlink do for Wi-Fi?
The world of Wi-Fi never sleeps - and here's what we think are important items you should know about this week:
Starlink was not exactly designed as backhaul for public (or enterprise) Wi-Fi - but that doesn't mean it can't be used for just that. This week we chronicle how our good friends at WestEnd WiFi in the UK and our long-time partner GoZone WiFi are delivering Wi-Fi solutions for remote areas - even farms - using the Starlink service. Don't miss it - go here to read all about and download the detailed case story.
Is mobile/Wi-Fi convergence back? Well - it probably never really left ;) Neutral-host and global Wi-Fi infrastructure leader BAI Communications recently acquired ZenFi Networks and Mobilitie - both in the US - and the company is betting big on converged Wi-Fi/mobile infrastructure for transit, large public venues, and more. Read our interview with BAI Group CTO Brendan O'Reilly here.
Meanwhile in smart home Wi-Fi: What are the best approaches to deliver proven, carrier-grade, high-performance Wi-Fi for the home? Calix is one of the fastest growing providers of ISP solutions - and they are bent on deploying some of the world's best home Wi-Fi solutions. Read the latest installment of our Calix Pro Tips series - this time we're diving into the issue of saving on energy costs while maintaining high performance. Read it here.
AFC - Automatic Frequency Coordination - is critical for the evolution towards standard power 6 GHz Wi-Fi everywhere, and some countries are ahead of the pack. Case in point: The Kingdom of Saudi Arabia. Saudi regulator CITC has conducted an impressive demonstration of how AFC works - and of course it all turned out flawlessly with a little help from Aruba/HPE and Federated Wireless. Get the details here.
