WESTLAKE VILLAGE, Calif., Dec. 15, 2003 (PRIMEZONE) -- Nomadix, Inc. (www.nomadix.com), the leading supplier of Public-access solutions, today announced that it has partnered with Airpath Wireless, a global leader in the Wi-Fi Hotspot industry, to offer a turnkey Wi-Fi solution for carriers, WISPs and ISPs to quickly and cost effectively deploy and operate full-service Wi-Fi networks. Nomadix' family of Public-access Gateways and the Airpath WiBOSS(tm) seamlessly integrate to centralize provisioning, billing, roaming, and management for such venues as airports, hotels, restaurants and other public locations.
"Airpath is working closely with Nomadix to provide an ideal solution for venue owners and network operators who wish to simplify the deployment, operation and management of their Hotspots," said Todd Myers, CEO for Airpath. "Together, we are combining the most advanced Public-access gateway solutions with our carrier-grade management platform to give providers the best Hotspot capabilities in the industry."
"Nomadix is excited to partner with Airpath Wireless. Our entire family of Access Gateways is compatible with the Airpath WiBOSS(tm) platform, which makes it an ideal solution for large scale Public-access rollouts," said John DiGiovanni, director of marketing for Nomadix. "Through this partnership, our joint customers can take advantage of our intelligent edge technology that seamlessly integrates into Airpath's centralized provisioning, billing and management platform."
WiBOSS(tm) is a powerful hosted web-based application that performs the arduous back-office tasks necessary to operate and manage public Internet access services for Hot Spots and Hot Zones, such as subscriber management, provisioning, billing (AAA), transaction processing, branding, reporting, network management, and roaming settlement. In addition, it's centrally hosted at Airpath's network operations center, eliminating the necessity for a provider to have local servers, which saves implementation time, deployment cost, and makes it easy to manage multiple network locations.
The leader in Public-access networking, Nomadix powers over 10,000 points of presence throughout the world through a family of Access Gateways and licensed embedded software solutions. The company's gateways and solutions have been deployed in a variety of venues including airports, hotels, convention centers, multiple dwelling units, college campuses, coffee shops and popular food chains.
