SmartRG, an ADTRAN company, announced Intellifi, a whole-home, mesh WiFi solution tailored for service providers. Intellifi is intended to deliver broadband to every corner of the home with the new SE80ac wall-pluggable, mesh access point (AP).
Scalable to up to five SE80ac satellites, the network automatically creates a mesh system to deliver coverage to every room in the home and eliminate dead spots.
Intellifi enables support via remote management and predictive customer care powered by analytics, as well as air-time management to balance triple-play surfing, voice and video service.
