Guaranteed throughput with SIAE’s Licensed Frequency Microwave Links!

An increasing number of businesses that rely on stable, interference-free, wireless transmission as their core business, such as service providers, are investing in licensed spectrums. This is due to the increased congestion of unlicensed bandwidths in the spectrum, resulting in unreliable connections.

The governing body in South Africa in charge of issuing and controlling the bandwidth licenses is called ICASA. ICASA issues these licenses that offer users a form of guarantee that the specific frequency, as stipulated in the license agreement, will be for the sole use of said user. This means that all your wireless equipment working on that frequency should perform at a 100% optimal level.

 

  • The frequency should be interference free. This does not mean that your own devices, depending on how many you use and in what proximity they are to each other, might not cause interference. It merely means that you won’t have to compete with others on the same bandwidth.
  • Guaranteed throughput. Because the only interference that you can incur is from your own devices (a problem easy solved with noise reduction technologies) you are guaranteed a stable throughput of whatever your devices are able to achieve.
  • Maximum range. Once again, due to lack of competition your total gain is so much more effective and you are able to reap the benefits of your devices’ individual maximum range.
