Case Study FWA Deployment
InCoax and Tarana accelerate broadband deployment in Cleveland: 47 buildings and 502 apartments connected in just 45 days
“I am proud to announce the successful integration of our Tarana ngFWA network with an InCoax system utilizing MoCA Access 2.5 technology. This innovative approach allowed us to leverage existing infrastructure and provide high-speed internet access to every unit at an affordable cost. Starting at 100/100 Mbps for only $18.00 per month, yet scalable up to symmetrical gigabit speeds over the existing coax infrastructure, meeting the growing demands of our residents. The project’s standout feature was its remarkable efficiency and rapid deployment. We completed the installation in 47 buildings, totaling 502 units, within just 45 working days. This achievement showcases the exceptional effectiveness of the combined technologies and streamlined implementation”

Application Areas
Smart solutions for smart buildings
Residential buildings, MDUs
FIBER CAPACITY AT LOWER COSTS
Increased bandwith is often on the agenda. Apartment buildings (MDU’s) are looking for upgrades to a fast speed broadband with minimal impact on the residents and the property. The use of free spectrum capacity in existing coaxial cables provides a cost-effective and sustainable solution for apartment buildings to reach the living room home entertainment hub. With InCoax, fiber performance is extended from the street or roof to the TV-outlet, reaching Internet speeds of up to 2.5 Gbps without having to pull new cables or fiber to the individual apartment. Other advantages include customized apartment provisioning and the co-existence with present TV-services (cable- or satellite TV). It works as well with Fixed Wireless Access, Satellite or 5G extension.
Social & Affordable Housing
INCREASE COMFORT, SECURITY AND SOCIAL INCLUSION
Today´s smart homes will monitor comfort and safety aspects of a building. This saves cost and significantly increases the tennants´ comfort and security. The demand for high-speed Internet connectivity for home study, work, social activities, and entertainment streaming is increasing. The need is very much the same for all citizens and, as part of social inclusion and personal development, should be made available to everyone. Living in social housing should not limit the availability of these services. The good news is that limited funding need not be a showstopper. If there is a cable network in the premises, for satellite TV and/or cable TV reception, this can become the high-speed broadband network needed.
You do not have to replace it with costly optical fiber installations to the individual apartments.
InCoax solution for cost-effective broadband connectivity is recommended by the UK based Housing Associations´ Charitable Trust (HACT).
“We see InCoax´ fibre extension as a valid alternative to faster close the social divide”, HACT Digital Lead Michael McLaughlin says.

SMART BUSINESS SOLUTIONS
There is nothing more frustrating in a work environment than a slow Internet connection. Multi-gigabit speed broadband is an emphasis for modern companies but most necessary technology upgrades are either expensive or complicating due to new cabling and operational disturbance. The commonly used G.fast enables faster connection speed than ADSL and VDSL but not fast enough to meet the demands of tomorrow. For higher speeds, the network needs to be upgraded and it is a costly procedure especially when it involves in-building fiber installations. InCoax Fiber Extension then presents as a smooth and cost-effective alternative. The technology works for coaxial cable networks used to distribute TV signals. It makes the entire building smarter, improves efficiency and reduces operating costs.
Hotels
THE GIGABIT LIFESTYLE
In a time of rapidly changing technology, information overload, and new methods of sharing the hotel and hospitality sectors are facing an increasing demand for faster broadband services. Access points in hotel corridors and rooms must be superior to meet new ways of doing business, new ways of connecting with people and new entertainment preferences such as extended room services, infotainment and Video on-demand. For hotel operations, time is money and network upgrades should have limited effect on daily business. InCoax Fiber and Fixed Wireless Extension helps to make the building smarter, improve efficiency and reduce operating costs. Adding increased quality of life to those who work and stay inside the walls makes a smart hotel your best bet for the future.
