“Deploying WiFi in Israel is complicated and we want to lead the market with reliable, advanced technology that can handle the challenges of our customer deployments,.” said Benny Birenbaum, Founder and CEO of 2Plus Wireless Solutions. “Edgewater Wireless WiFi3-powered access points allow us to build a robust and stable WiFi network that can handle both capacity and density of users and layer them across multiple channels on the same radio. WiFi3 makes WiFi better and solves the unique challenges we face when deploying WiFi in Israel. “Edgewater Wireless WiFi3 is ideally suited for wireless networks in Israel where utilizing 5GHz WiFi spectrum is restricted.
