About the wireless technology

WDSL Fixed Wireless Broadband is a proven method for delivering broadband to the home or business. The technology was designed with one primary objective - to deliver a superior broadband experience in areas stranded by ADSL.

WDSL combines the frequency re-use efficiencies (just like 3G mobile data networks) with the torrential data capacities of Fast Ethernet (just like LANs at your work). Through the process of ultra short development cycles, a prototype "cellular style" broadband access system was demonstrated in 2000 at Fish Telecom. The following picture depicts the network architecture that the engineers saw as a solution before WDSL was rolled out across the Illawarra.

This artist's impression represented a revolutionary approach to the "last mile" dilemma (i.e. limited availability of high speed data in the last mile to thousands of people).
