AirTies Signs New Agreement with Singtel to Deliver Enhanced In-Home Wi-Fi Mesh Solutions

SINGAPORE and ISTANBUL, Oct. 24, 2017 /PRNewswire/ -- AirTies Wireless Networks, a leading international provider of premium in-home wireless systems and set-top box solutions, today announced at the Broadband World Forum 2017 in Istanbul that it has signed a new two-year contract to supply Singtel, Asia's leading communications technology group, an ultra-fast whole-home Wi-Fi Mesh.

Unlike traditional Wi-Fi, which relies on a single Wi-Fi Access Point (AP) on home gateways and routers, Singtel uses AirTies' multiple Mesh APs (extenders) to create an intelligent Wi-Fi network with faster connection speeds and a broader range of consistent, whole-home Internet coverage. 

Under this new agreement, AirTies will supply Singtel with its new Managed Mesh system which includes the recently announced Air 4930. These new 2.5Gbps Wi-Fi Mesh extenders are AirTies' fastest extenders to date. In addition, AirTies' Mesh Software ensures devices continually connect to the best available extender and frequency band (2.4GHz and 5GHz), based on real-time network usage. Singtel will also have access to AirTies' Remote Manager, a cloud-based performance management platform, which helps optimize in-home Wi-Fi for subscribers.  

"Singtel is widely-recognized for delivering innovative in-home experiences and superior broadband services to millions of subscribers," said Philippe Alcaras, CEO of AirTies. "We share a common vision that internet connections must not only be fast, but consistently fast throughout the ubscribers' homes – which requires a Managed Wi-Fi Mesh solution. We're very honoured to be selected again to help Singtel serve the super-connected home of today, and tomorrow." 




A survey of 1,050 respondents, with multiple Wi-Fi users per home, commissioned by AirTies and conducted by Qualtrics, found that seventy-eight percent (78%) of respondents would prefer if their Internet Service Providers provided them with their in-home Wi-Fi networking gear, versus purchasing it themselves. The survey also found that the majority of consumers would consider upgrading their Internet service plans, or paying extra, for a premium Wi-Fi experience that improves performance throughout the entire home.

At the Broadband World Forum in Berlin, AirTies will host a private lunch for service providers and technology partners on Wednesday, October 25th from 12:20pm-1:30pm in meeting room MR12.
