Deploy and Support Community-Wi-Fi with SmartTown and Calix Cloud
Subscriber expectations of both their broadband provider and their broadband services continue to evolve. Subscribers want more robust coverage, better support and new services so they can enjoy broadband services, anywhere and at any time.
One way broadband service providers (BSPs) can meet new expectations is by extending their quality residential service throughout the town and beyond. Community Wi-Fi allows subscribers to enjoy reliable high-capacity Wi-Fi anywhere their day takes them, opening new opportunities to work and play from anywhere.
As a broadband service provider considers Community Wi-Fi, they want to understand how to introduce it with minimal impact to their customer support staff.
Can community Wi-Fi help you grow your revenue as you face increased competition from deep-pocketed giants? Watch to find out.
