No student should be without secure access to teachers, schools and online educational content – and our new MultiConnect CBRS Wi-Fi AP Access Point now makes that possible. MOUNDS VIEW, Minn. (PRWEB) July 20, 2021
Multi-Tech Systems, Inc., a leading global supplier of Internet of Things (IoT) devices and services, today announced MultiConnect® CBRS Wi-Fi AP, a Wi-Fi Access Point enabling one-to-many connectivity to families with more than one child and to multi-dwelling buildings using Chromebooks, notebooks, desktops and smart devices over a CBRS cellular OnGo network.
The MultiConnect CBRS Wi-Fi AP is an end-user device for use on CBRS cellular networks operated by school districts, educational facilities, smart cities, hospitality providers and their managed service partners to provide secure, reliable, high-performance LTE broadband coverage to students in their homes and in public places. This newest addition to the award-winning MultiTech portfolio of FCC-authorized CBRS solutions can be remotely provisioned and managed at scale using an auto configuration server (ACS) or DeviceHQ®, a cloud-based tool set featuring secure configuration, over-the-air updates, operational performance metrics and CBRS connection management.
“The impact of the pandemic on students and teachers has accentuated the growing importance of providing affordable Internet connectivity to academic communities wherever they may be,” said Stefan Lindvall, CEO of MultiTech. “No student should be without secure access to teachers, schools and online educational content – and our new MultiConnect CBRS Wi-Fi AP Access Point now makes that possible. We are proud to be part of this important initiative.”
Authorized for commercial use in early 2020 by the FCC, CBRS (Citizens Broadband Radio Service) in the 3.55-3.7 GHz spectrum empowers independent school districts, higher education, local governments and enterprise organizations to connect people, digitize assets and processes without the cost barrier of having to purchase costly and exclusive licensed spectrum to establish their own private LTE or 5G mobile networks.
Benefits of the MultiConnect CBRS Wi-Fi AP Access Point include:
Simple, flexible installation options; Easy set up; Scalable commissioning and configuration; Remote device management; Secure, unique wireless credentials, with No spectrum access fees required. The MultiConnect CBRS Wi-Fi AP is part of the MultiTech CBRS product portfolio for school districts and communities, which includes devices offering USB- and Ethernet-based connectivity.
