iBWAVE WIRELESS DESIGN
A good wireless system begins with an intelligent design. Virtually all Wi-Fi equipment broadcasts on a range of frequencies, with each range being different in the way it responds to physical objects, radio/electrical interference, and even the environment.
ATS Integration uses iBwave design software to take the guesswork out of network design. iBwave is recognized as the worldwide software standard for designing indoor wireless networks and creating predictive two-dimensional graphic representations of signal performance, referred to as a heat maps.
With the ability to import floor plans and design a wireless network using a database of over 30,000 components, we are able to accurately predict how each Wi-Fi transmitter will broadcast, for every room of the residence. This enables us to establish broad 5 GHz coverage, with the highest speeds and best performance possible.
HIGH PERFORMANCE IoT (Internet of Things)
Over the past few years, IoT (Internet of Things) has become one of the most important technologies of the 21st century. It allows everyday objects - audio equipment, televisions, appliances, cars and thermostats – to connect to the Internet via embedded devices, enabling seamless communication between people, processes and things.
To build a future-proof IoT network, it’s critical that the relevant Wi-Fi system offer robust and reliable wireless connectivity. Poor range, low throughput, high packet error rate and bad coexistence are just a few of the problems that separate a superior network from a frustrating one. Reliable, fast and efficient Wi-Fi connectivity is the backbone of any network that successfully manages a world of IoT devices.
CENTRALIZED AND CLOUD-BASED CONTROLLERS
Perspective is everything. Traditionally, wireless networks have had a lack of perspective -because each access point (AP) operates as a separate node, largely unaware of other AP's on the network. While these autonomous devices "hear" a nearby access point operating on the same channel, the autonomous AP has no way of determining if the adjacent unit is part of the same network or a neighboring network.
Centralized wireless controllers offer an elegant solution to this challenge. A centralized controller is designed to manage and coordinate individual access points, proving a seamless transition between units as you move throughout the residence. This control is especially important when users are streaming audio from a mobile source or engaged in Wi-Fi calling. A centralized controller provides the network with intelligent coordination, and individuals with the freedom to speak, stream and surf without interruption.
NEXT GENERATION 6E ACCESS POINTS
With mobile traffic at an all-time high, a new, much needed Wi-Fi band is now available. The 6GHz band offers uncluttered channels for more capacity, a stronger signal, and faster data transfer for bandwidth heavy devices.
WiFi 6E is designed to deliver multi-gigabit Wi-Fi speeds by providing five times the number of channels on a wider spectrum, reducing noise between nodes and providing more avenues to connect devices. This next-generation technology will transform home and business Wi-Fi with its wire-like stability and gigabit performance.
NEXT-GENERATION ENGINEERING
TODAY'S NETWORK DESIGNED TO MEET TOMORROW'S DEMANDS
As we enter an era in which over 50,000 different types of devices are designed to connect wirelessly, residential Wi-Fi networks have evolved from being an amenity to an expected utility. For a growing number of smart home products and systems, Wi-Fi connectivity is an essential part of life at home, controlling the operation of everything from phones, tablets and computers to smart speakers and ultra-high resolution televisions.
Given the growing number of devices and the demands of mobile users, IoT, and latency-sensitive applications, Wi-Fi network design requires strategic thinking. ATS Integration provides an integrated approach to networks, offering a set of products and services for planning, designing and delivering both indoor and outdoor wireless networks to meet this challenge. Networks designed for today and tomorrow.

STREAMING SOURCES
THE FUTURE OF 8K TELEVISION REQUIREMENTS
Streaming 4K is already a challenge when multiple users are involved. Typically, a minimum connection speed of 25 Mbps is required for 4K streaming, and each television requires its own separate connection. While a wired network connection to each set radically simplifies the process, in some cases a wireless connection is the only practical solution, placing a high demand on an access points to manage multiple devices in relative proximity with high streaming rates.
8K technology represents a significant leap forward in clarity, but also in the amount of data required to achieve it. With a screen measuring 7680x4320, 8K televisions have four times the number of pixels as their 4K counterparts. In order to stream an image with the highest resolution and frame-rate combinations, these televisions will require an average bandwidth of 48 Mbps per device. New wireless networks need to be ready to meet these demands.
