- International Presence Over 55 Years in Business 690 Employees
Over 600,000 sq/ft of facilities worldwide
- Slide 5
- Applications to Industry Canada were procured, equipment was
purchased, programmed and mounted on a existing broadcast tower in
a rural community called Whitecourt, Alberta. Proof of Concept
using UHF We took our knowledge base from the cable plant and
applied it to wireless. Initially we were astonished to find that
the footprint of coverage to be a 50km radius or ~8000 Sq/Km.
- Slide 6
- Residential Viability After proof of concept the organic
migration of live customers on system was achieved. The first
system took 4 years of residential installs and thousands of hours
of tweaking and fine tuning to fully understand the abilities &
Limitations of the 'White Space' Technology. This gave rise to the
second system servicing Grande Prairie, Alberta and its surrounding
areas. Term to describe the UHF Spectrum. Financial Investment of
$15 Million Canadian Dollars.

- Previous slide was types of connectivity, this slide needs to
be enhanced on different wireless system types, capabilities,
features and benefits of our wireless systems Wireless Spectrum
Licensed- UHF 500Mhz-899Mhz Unlicensed- 900Mhz-2.4Ghz -Lower
frequency allows for greater signal penetration through foliage.
-Higher frequency are blocked and/or has difficulty penetrating
through foliage. -Near Line of Sight allows signal to Bend around
hills and valleys. -Line of Sight requires a non obstructed path
between transmission and receive antennas for connectivity.
-Competitors cannot cause interference on licensed allocated
frequency. -Non licensed frequency transmission by many carriers
cause interference resulting in non reliable service
