Strong demand for Edgewater's EAP3000 multi-channel WiFI solution

Ottawa, September 2010 -- Edgewater Computer Systems, Inc., a leading provider of advanced communications and networking products, has responded to the tremendous demand for its EAP3000 multi-channel WiFi Access Point by opening an office in Sao Paulo, Brazil.  Edgewater’s first international office will provide sales, marketing and technical support for its channel partners and their rapidly expanding customer base.

The EAP3000, with its innovative and industry leading three-channel, 802.11 compliant, radio architecture provides up to 50X increased throughput versus traditional "single channel" access points addressing the market’s immediate demands for increased and affordable “bandwidth density”.  With a flexible feature set, including Integrated Virtual Channels that allows for up to 12 full featured SSID’s per radio, Integrated Spectral Surveillance Architecture (SSA™) to support remote site survey and security capabilities and Intelligent Channel Association (ICA™) to effectively optimize network performance, the EAP3000 empowers operators to offer unparalleled services and performance demanded by their customers -- leading to higher ARPU while eliminating costly “truck rolls”.

For Wireless ISPs, struggling with capacity and throughput issues, Edgewater’s products address known pain points and offer the flexibility needed to deliver highly differentiated services -- generating higher APRU than traditional WiFi access points.  For mobile operators under siege by data-hungry devices, such as Apple’s® iPhone®, Edgewater offers a highly compelling solution for cellular data off-load applications -- delivering 20x to 30x better performance than traditional single channel access points and dramatically lower OPEX.

“We’re seeing a tremendous demand for our EAP3000 family of products from BRIC markets and opening our Brazilian office is the best way to support our customers and partners.” according to Duane Anderson, President of Edgewater. “The EAP3000 is viewed, and rightly so, as the “next generation in WiFi”.  We are pleased to be at the forefront of this exciting technology”.
