We’re confident that WiFi3™ is the technology set to revolutionize wireless connectivity for high density, high RF interference networks.

Edgewater employs patented technology that enables multiple, concurrent channels of transmit and receive via standards compliant WiFi.

Edgewater WiFi3™ technology lowers the noise floor with a patented, multi-channel wireless chipset to maximize channel re-use while mitigating interference. In light of Ofcom’s recent announcement to open up an additional 125MHz of spectrum for WiFi to address future congestion in the 5GHz band, WiFi3™ is fully capable next generation WiFI developed to address the 5Ghz interference issues in the European market

“Evolve is a good partner to grow our, already-in-demand, high density wireless solutions for Edgewater Wireless in the European market.“ said Andrew Skafel, President & CEO of Edgewater Wireless “The Evolve team has a strong track record of success, working with companies like Xirrus – building opportunity and selling innovative WiFi technology throughout Europe. We believe Evolve is the right partner for us in a market already challenged to address the issues of interference and capacity in WiFi.”

Edgewater’s WiFi3™ powered technology is the best Wi-Fi solution for carriers, service providers and systems integrators to address the growing problems of interference, capacity and critical mass of users which is stretching networks to their breaking point.
