| BusCon 2006 in Chicago Parvus Corporation will introduce its RiderNet passenger Internet access solution at the BusCon 2006 Expo being held October 23-25 at Navy Pier, Chicago. Purpose-built for the harsh vehicle environment, RiderNet is one of the first such products specifically tailored for commuter transit and private coach installations. Enabling broadband connection speeds comparable to DSL with minimal infrastructure investment by transit operators, RiderNet reliably connects wireless subscribers to a high-speed cellular backhaul at speeds averaging 400-700kbps. Considered by Parvus to be the most robust and affordable wireless Internet access solution available today for transit vehicles, RiderNet helps mass transit authorities increase their ridership by enhancing the productivity of their business commuters. Passengers can check email, visit websites, and use VPN connections from any Wi-Fi-enabled laptop or PDA. Multiple business models are supported including free, pay-per-use, and subscription service to add-value and/or generate additional revenue for transit operators. The product comes with all the equipment needed for hassle-free installation and operation, including wireless router, broadband modem, vehicle power supply, antennas, and cabling. All RiderNet deployments are managed by Parvus through standard monthly service agreements. Parvus monitors and tracks all fielded systems and can perform first-level troubleshooting remotely from the Parvus Network Operations Center (NOC) in Salt Lake City, Utah. write your comments about the article :: © 2006 Exhibition News :: home page |
