Hardware designed, built and tested in-house.
Our in-house expertise enables us to ensure we have complete understanding of requirements and specific technical resources which allows us to monitor, maintain, and manage projects efficiently and effectively. Our hardware is custom designed by us to ensure complete ownership and accountability, rather than relying on modified off-the-shelf hardware with opaque software.
Coding from a clean slate. Completely bespoke.
Our Clean-Slate approach to software development allows us to deliver our own custom GSM/UMTS/LTE/5GNR/Wi-Fi protocol stacks, tailored to the demanding and unique environments in which they perform. Deep knowledge of the underlying technology provides the capability to fully harness our bespoke hardware to provide class leading performance, whilst remaining agile and responsive to evolving network technologies.
