SkyPipes' Economics Are Compelling
 
           
    Cost Benefits:    
     
  • Low start-up costs (less than $50k)
  • Affordable for serving multiple small communities
  • No expensive spectrum licenses required
  • No special "craft" skills required by installers
  • Compatible with existing network management systems
  • Subscriber nodes are self-provisioning
  • Network self-heals if nodes fail--reducing network down-time and subscriber complaints
  • Highly reliable performance because of dynamically adaptive grid--means minimal service calls
   
           
    Revenue Benefits:    
     
  • Supports tiered service levels and multiple pricing plans
  • Symmetrical data speeds support outbound services (e.g. consumer hosted websites, peer-to-peer rich media transfers, etc.)
  • Built-in QoS supports VoIP services natively (competes directly with Vonage supports Skype with very high quality)
  • Built-in Streaming QoS supports HD IPTV natively (Anchor Points can be equipped to store and forward all video content on-demand)
  • Up to 30 Mbps, symmetrical performance, allows for premium rates (these speeds are not acheivable by any other technology except fiber to the home)
  • Return on invested capital in 10 to 18 months (depending on services and pricing offered)
   
           
    Competitive Benefits:    
     
  • Faster speeds than cable, DSL, cellular, WiMax or WiFi mesh
  • More reliable than cellular, WiMax or WiFi mesh
  • Guaranteed QoS performance
  • Much lower infrastructure cost than cable, DSL, Cellular, or WiMax
  • No federal, state or municipal approvals required to deploy
  • Can serve small communities not economically viable for other technologies.
  • Can cover suburban communities with low housing densities not practical for WiFi mesh
  • Steerable beam antennas mean no unserviceable "dead zones" (can service all requests for service within a served area)
