How does HCL INFINET provide Wireless broadband services?
A. HCLI provides Last mile wireless broadband (Internet & VPN) services from its POPs across India. The provisioning of this last mile is done through HCL INFINET’s WBB base stations located at each POP, which connect to the CPE installed at the customer premises. The CPE is a radio modem given to the customer on a ‘right to use’ model under wireless broadband services. At customer end following components complete the Wireless link – Directional antennae, Mast, Cable, Transceiver, indoor Radio modem (CPE). At our POP end the similar setup is there along with indoor point-to-multipoint BTS with sectoral antennae. Since HCL INFINET uses a licensed band spectrum to provide wireless broadband services, the equipments in that specific band need to be owned by the spectrum license holder (HCL INFINET), therefore the delivery of wireless broadband is a ‘service.
