BRAC Net is building its network by deploying

WiMAX, state-of-the-art wireless broadband

technology. Our last-mile (access) network is

based on WiMAX, however the backbone is

based on a high capacity fiber-optic network.

Our network is connected with the submarine

cable (SEA-ME-WE4) and VSAT for 24x7

redundancy. By using our licensed 3.5 GHz

radio frequency we ensure interference free

and uninterrupted service through our access

networks. We currently have robust coverage in

Dhaka city, Chittagong, Sylhet we also have our

wireless and Fiber optic coverage at many

location in Bangladesh.

WiMAX Powered Network

- An infrastructure that optimizes performance

and reliability.

- Scalability

- Scalable speed offerings from 64Kbps to

155Mbps to fit your business needs

- Flexibility

- Perfect for hosting web sites and LAN connec-

tivity.

- Outstanding performance

- Cisco powered backbone supports multiple

Internet users with proper QoS.

- Optical Fiber Network

bracNet have a very large coverage of Fiber

Optic Network though out Bangladesh

including 400KM of carpet coverage only at

Dhaka city.

Our Network &Technology

WiMAX is a standards-based wireless technol-

ogy providing high-speed data and voice

services in networks covering long distances

and wide ranges. WiMAX can be used for a

number of applications including last mile

broadband access, hotspot and cellular

backhaul for carrier infrastructure, and hi-

speed enterprise connectivity. WiMAX is

designed to provide E1-level bandwidth to

businesses and the equivalent of cable/fiber

optic access for home users. WiMAX will enable

carrier-class solutions to scale to support

thousands of users with a single base station,

while providing differentiated service levels.

For areas poorly served by wired infrastructure,

WiMAX is expected to enable service providers

to reach new businesses and residential

customers, while reducing service costs.

Benefits of WiMAX

WiMAX has been selected as the bracNet

access level technology for its superior quality.

Carrying forward all the advantages to our

customers in the form of:

-Availability

Through the global standardization and

certification of WiMAX in WiMAX Forum, there

are many base station and CPE vendors

competing for market share and thus guaran-

tees ample availability of equipment.

-Vendor Interoperability

Through the standardization and certification,

equipment from different vendors can interop-

erate on the same radio segments, exactly like

e.g. GSM systems where e.g. Samsung, Siemens

and Sony-Ericsson GSM-phones all work

equally well with the base station from Nokia.

-Price-performance analysis

By large scale production of micro-chips, the

manufacturing costs of equipment will be kept

really low, creating total low cost of ownership.

-Advancement in Microwave

Advancements in the usage of technologies

like OFDM, smart antennas and diversity all

help facilitate true NLOS (Non-line-of-sight)

environments for the operators and its’

customers.

-Uninterrupted service during traditional

weather condition of Bangladesh e.g. rainy,

drizzling, stormy, cloudy weather, etc.

All the above will ensure low cost, quick

installation as well as dense deployment, high

and all these savings and optimal characteris

tics will be delivered on to bracNet’s customers.

As enterprise needs to expand their business coverage they need to expand their network coverage as well. Enterprise needs to connect to remote branch offices, remote work force need to connect to internal network.

In today’s business environment, enterprises are facing new challenges, threats and opportuni - ties, as legislation attempts to give employees a more balanced life style. The Internet, new technology and services are delivering new solutions that provide robust, resilient, simple and secure networking, enabling flexible working so that employees can work when and where they need to.

And these technologies and solutions are available to us today.

Even the smallest remotest office can be securely and permanently connected to the corporate network, enabling the enterprise to offer a full suite of telephony features and data applications seamlessly across all offices. Even better, because the secure, resilient, connection is ‘always on’, there are no telephony calling costs between these small, remote offices and the rest of the corporate network.

Virtual PBX or IP PBX is an open standard PBX system over internet protocol (IP) network. It not only unites a company's many locations - into a single converged network, but also promises cost savings by combining voice and data on one single network that can be centrally maintained, as well as by eliminating toll expenses for calls between its’ different locations.

• AGI (Asterisk Gateway Interface) • Graphical Call Manager • Outbound Call Spooling • Predictive Dialer • TCP/IP Management Interface

VPN infrastructure eliminates the need for dedicated private network connection between branch offices. Rather it enables enterprises to use exiting Public Internet and create a secured tunneled data link. This eliminates huge investment in private network infrastructure deployment and management. bracNet can manage your VPN network giving you the flexibility to concentrate on business expansion without compromising security.
