ClearLink® In-building Wireless
Did you know that an average of 75% of wireless calls start within a building? While in these buildings, it is common for mobile customers to experience poor or non-existent capacity, coverage and performance issues. And, unbeknownst to many, these issues do not lie solely with the wireless carrier, but more so with the structure of the building itself.
As more people utilize mobile devices and data-intensive services in areas such as stadiums, universities, airports and office buildings, the demand for wireless coverage across a reliable network continues to increase dramatically.
The Leading Solution
Enter Westell’s ClearLink®, the industry-leading in-building wireless solution that provides the core infrastructure needed to facilitate or extend wireless services into buildings of all types and sizes. Designed to improve network performance while minimizing operating and capital costs, ClearLink® ensures the premium wireless coverage and capacity required to optimize the customer experience.
