Siklu, a global leader in millimeter-wave (mmWave) technology for gigabit fixed wireless access, smart city and security networks, and a Winner in the 2017 and 2020 ‘ASTORS’ Awards Program, is pleased to announce it’s Siklu MultiHaul TG N366 has been Nominated for the 2022 ‘ASTORS’ Awards Program.

As the traditional wireless network spectrum becomes saturated with competing business and residential wireless networks and mobile devices, the physical security industry seeks a network video solution that can provide the low latency, high bandwidth, and guaranteed uptime required for mission-critical deployments.

Millimeter-wave systems use narrow beams that traverse your streets impervious to all other signals. That means no jamming, no interference, and complete security.

The price-competitive radios have proved to be ideal for networks requiring fast, simple deployment of secure, fiber-like, and future-proof connectivity.

MultiHaul™ TG products operate in the widely available and license exempt 60GHz V-Band and deliver multi Gigabit throughputs.

Siklu and Skywire

Best COVID-19 Communications Solution

While not being able to quickly access emails or social media posts can be annoying to a general consumer, wireless connectivity becomes critical when police and fire departments, security personnel and medical professionals need access to many types of data, video, images and more in in real-time. 2020 ’ASTORS’ Competitors Skywire Networks and Siklu, is uniquely qualified to bring immediate high-speed connection to highly congested conditions – in terms of the density of buildings in the end point areas (at an average of 30 stories) and in terms of a crowded and noisy radio transmissions environment.
Establishing broadband communications in these situations can be a challenge, especially if access to fiber is limited and as laying down new fiber would be both time and cost prohibitive, a temporary wireless network is the answer and being implemented for “pop up” medical facilities.
  • It’s not uncommon for these wireless networks to struggle to handle large amounts of data not the least of which is generated by cameras, temporary Wi-Fi hotspots, IoT-enabled medical equipment and increased services for first responders, which results oftentimes, in network that lags, or complete failure.

  • mmWave wireless technology performs well as it uses narrow beams which are basically immune to radio interference and network jamming and feature high security as well, and stands in contrast to wide-beam wireless systems that need to use multiple coding and frequency hopping strategies to perform in dense areas.

  • Furthermore, mmWave systems and their narrow beams offer more flexible connection options as emergency response networks can be set up in a relatively short time using point to multipoint systems with built-in “beam steering,” which greatly reduces the engineering requirements.

  • In uncertain times like today we don’t know where or what the next crisis or emergency will unfold, however we do know that there will be a critical need for reliable gigabit communication services, and mmWave solutions deliver.

  • Siklu was also recognized in the 2017 ‘ASTORS’ Awards Program.
