Indoor Coverage Backgrounder
8
Indoor Coverage Situation

• Landscape, buildings and materials all prevent
  reliable signal inside
• When services slow down or become unavailable,
  even temporarily, it results in unhappy users and
  lost productivity

9
Indoor Coverage Background

• High speed wireless data services have raised
  expectations in terms of availability and
  reliability
• The bottom line - your business depends on good
  indoor signal

10
Indoor Coverage Benefits

• Mobilize your workforce by effectively using your
  wireless tools
• Maximize your ROI for wireless strategies
• Optimize your resources and ensure your staff are
  accessible and responsive
• Minimizes support costs (e.g., calls to an
  already overloaded help desk)
• Provide reliable back-up systems to landlines

A Breakthrough Solution
SpotCell provides us with crystal-clear
reception throughout our office. President and
CEO, Ubiquity Software Corporation

• Addresses coverage-challenged spots inside
  buildings
• Out-of-the-box
• No RF design engineering or logistics to worry
  about
• Easy to install
• No special tools or equipment
• Rapidly deployed
• Only days to full operation
• Scalable
• Expand your coverage now or later

17
Coverage Spots Not Entire Buildings

• Standalone systems for continuous coverage up to
  100,000 sq ft or system combinations to cover
  larger non-continuous zones up to 500,000 sq

18
SpotCell Systems are Carrier Approved

• Spotwave works closely with carriers to determine
  what impacts their networks
• Protects Network Integrity
• Adapts to changes in network while retaining
  consistent coverage area
• Eliminates oscillation
• No noise interference
• Wireless Peace of Mind
• You'll never be liable for interfering with any
  carrier's network
• Always on, reliable coverage for your organization

19
How it Works Before SpotCell
Acceptable signal outside the building
Building is shadowed by natural (hills) or man
made barriers (large buildings)
Indoor partition walls (number, thickness
material) floors all a barrier to signal
In-building coverage becomes the subscribers
responsibility
20
How it Works After SpotCell
Coverage effectively supports the demands of the
business
Donor Unit Mounted on roof or outside wall
Coaxial Cable
Coverage Unit Mounted inside building
21
Acquisition and Operational Lifecycle

• SpotCell Adaptive Repeaters vs. Traditional
  Static Solutions

22
New In-building Solution Methodology

• Do you really need to / afford cover the entire
  building?
• Even the washrooms?
• What of the building already has good coverage?
• Can I afford to provide coverage everywhere? What
  are the top priorities?
• Do you have the time people to design and
  engineer the solution?
• Whats your total cost of ownership?
