SkyPilot and Palette Sign Distribution Agreement
Palette to Market, Sell, and Support SkyPilot’s Broadband Wireless Products in South and Southeast Asia
SANTA CLARA, CA – (PRWEB) – February 11, 2009 –SkyPilot Networks, a leading provider of carrier-class broadband wireless networks, today announced that it has signed a distribution agreement with Palette Multimedia, a wireless networking solutions provider based in Malaysia. Palette will market, sell, and support SkyPilot’s line of broadband wireless products throughout South and Southeast Asia.
“SkyPilot has provided service providers around the world with cost-effective, long-range, and high-capacity wireless equipment,” said Sukhdev Singh, executive director of Palette. “Our channel partners are always looking for the best wireless products available, and SkyPilot’s solutions provide our partners with enough uniqueness and flexibility to effectively enter new broadband wireless markets.”
SkyPilot’s equipment not only enables wireless Internet service providers to deploy broadband Internet access and VoIP to subscribers, but also provides the wireless backhaul to enable outdoor Wi-Fi access as well as video surveillance for municipal networks.
SkyPilot’s unique capabilities come from an innovative approach to combining point-to-point backhaul, mesh, and a point-to-multipoint base station into a single solution. The SkyGateway and SkyExtender are base stations that provide point-to-multipoint connectivity to low-cost SkyConnector customer premise equipment (CPE) in the 5 GHz spectrum. These base stations also integrate a synchronous multi-hop wireless backhaul that greatly extends coverage range and increases spectral capacity. In addition, these products can be integrated with long-range Wi-Fi access points at 2.4 GHz and 4.9 GHz for mobile public safety.
“Palette has a proven ability to expand our presence in Southeast Asia and their focus in broadband wireles aligns with our target markets,” said Joshua Mony, senior director of Asia Pacific business development at SkyPilot. “The combination of wireless technology with advanced solutions represents considerable value to SkyPilot and we are enthusiastic about working together with our new partner.”
