5G Network Engineering

Wherever there is a requirement for highly available service levels, a 5G architecture should be considered. With the additional capacity, speed, and low latency nature of 5G, the traditional expectation of a slower and delayed failover to a redundant link is no longer the case. Enterprises and institutions can expect an architecture that provides a business-as-usual experience in the event a 5G backup is invoked.

Rural Broadband Networks

We know rural networks and how support and maintain these networks in a harsh environment and across a province the size of Texas. With a diverse network of wireline and wireless we have the expereince to build the right networks and services for our clients.
