Vox calls on WISPs to partner with it
Vox has called on WISPs to partner with it to provide better connectivity options for their customers.
Vox said it was targeting wireless ISPs in “towns where broadband coverage is limited, or where ADSL is old, over-subscribed, and unlikely to be extended”.
“Vox is deploying wireless links via a high-capacity backhaul that it anticipates will assist WISPs to convert what were previously best-effort basic services to a more inclusive, far-reaching broadband connectivity experience for businesses and residents,” said Vox.
“By improving the backhaul, we will enable local peering and caching, high-speed access, and drive future investment in the network,” said Jacques du Toit, Vox CEO.
The company said its has prioritised smaller towns along the eastbound N4 route between Johannesburg and Durban, but will “initially focus our efforts on the larger towns.”
“WISPs throughout this route are encouraged to make contact with Vox and work alongside the service provider,” it said.
