Deutsche Telekom offers AirTies’ in-home mesh Wi-Fi to subscribers

AirTies Wireless Networks, the most widely deployed provider of managed Wi-Fi Mesh solutions to global service providers and Deutsche Telekom announced the availability of AirTies’ ultra-performance in-home Wi-Fi solution for Deutsche Telekom residential subscribers in Germany. AirTies’ Managed Mesh Solution is designed to improve customers’ in-home Wi-Fi coverage and speeds and intelligently route data connections to optimise performance of connected devices around the home.

Deutsche Telekom is one of the world’s leading integrated telecommunications companies, with 28.5 million fixed-network lines, 18.5 million broadband lines and 165 million mobile customers. AirTies is internationally recognised for providing ultra-performance in-home Wi-Fi solutions to leading service providers such as Orange, Singtel, Sky, Swisscom and many others.

“Deutsche Telekom continues to be a global leader at the forefront of innovation,” said Philippe Alcaras, CEO of AirTies. “We share a common vision that it’s no longer sufficient to provide fast Internet speeds to today’s super-connected homes, but also to ensure consistent performance throughout the entire home, on every device. We look forward to helping them deliver on that commitment with our Managed Wi-Fi Mesh solution.”

Unlike traditional Wi-Fi, which relies on a single Access Point (AP) from a router/gateway, Deutsche Telekom customers can now purchase the AirTies 4920 Starter Kit which includes two 4920 Mesh Wi-Fi extenders, with the ability to expand modularly up to six extenders per Mesh network. These compact and elegant Wi-Fi extenders can be placed around the home to create an intelligent Mesh network that ensures consistent, high-quality whole-home Internet coverage. Key features and specs include:

  • High-performance Mesh capable WLAN solution for optimal performance of today’s digital homes;
  • Fast and easy configuration ‘Plug & Play’ of the WLAN, including secure encryption of the data (WPA /WPA2 standard) via AirTies’ Wi-Fi app (download via Apple Store or Google Play Store);
  • Self-optimising Mesh protocol for secure and redundant connections;
  • Automatic band and channel selection for best performance (2.4GHz and 5GHz), based on real-time network conditions within the home;
  • Also usable as Wi-Fi bridge / cable replacement solution, e.g. between router and media receiver;
  • 2 x Gigabit Ethernet LAN;
  • Data rate up to 1.3 GBs WLAN network; 3 x 3 5 GHz band 802.11 ac and 2 x 2 802.11 n 2.4 GHz antennas;
  • Supports video / TV in HD / UHD quality;
  • Dimensions: 44 x 135 x 135 mm; and
  • Weight: 150 g.

With AirTies, operators can seize new opportunities to improve customer satisfaction, drive incremental revenue and differentiate with new classes of premium Wi-Fi services.
