Wireless and switching kit

Proven hardware, typically Mimosa fixed wireless and Edgecore access points and switches.

Core routing

A core network built to be stable, secure and ready to grow with you.

PulseAI

Our network management, RADIUS and hotspot platform, so you can authenticate and manage subscribers.

Billing integration

Connect your network to billing, so customers are activated and managed without manual work.

Operations and 24/7 support

Help with the day-to-day running of your ISP, with 24/7 support behind you.

A typical kit

Every network is different, so we size the kit to your area. A typical ISP-in-a-box build looks like this.

Hardware

  • Mimosa fixed wireless
  • Edgecore access points
  • Edgecore switches
  • Starlink (optional)

Need an internet connection to get started? Starlink is an option for the initial connection, so you can launch before other upstream links are in place.

Software and support

  • PulseAI network management, RADIUS and hotspot
  • Billing integration
  • Monitoring and 24/7 support
  • Optional managed services as you grow

From idea to live network

  1. Plan

    We look at your area, your customers and your budget, and agree what’s in your box.

  2. Build

    We design the network, supply and configure the kit, and help you get it installed.

  3. Launch

    We set up PulseAI and billing integration, test everything and help you sign up your first customers.

  4. Grow

    We keep supporting you with 24/7 help, PulseAI and managed services as you add customers and coverage.
