• Apollo Resorts & Leisure: Wireless Internet

  WiMAX
  

  Whether it’s making sure pop-stars like Elton John can browse the internet and make international calls, ensuring event management companies can effectively communicate across an entire venue or enabling ticketing vendors to accept credit and debit cards while floating through crowds - most stadiums or theatres expect high-availability communications. Save9 achieves this by providing 24x7 internet access wirelessly to venues such as the Scarborough Open Air Theatre by using high-speed Wi-Fi access points and a WiMAX backhaul connected to fibre optic land-lines. Our permanent outdoor wireless links ensure fibre-like performance is maintained across an entire venue - without the expensive civil-engineering costs usually associated with projects of this nature.
