NetNITCO has teamed with a global leader in wireless technologies to bring you the latest in fixed
wireless broadband equipment. The reception is extremely dependable and can be compared to a radio
broadcast from a local station to your home stereo. Your connection comes from our nearest Access
Point at an elevated site location in your area. The Access Point then transmits radio waves to the
subscriber module affixed to your home. NetNITCO maintains all equipment essential to your connection.
Here is a brief description of each piece of equipment that is needed for a basic installation.
Subscriber Module
A subscriber module is a radio receiver that transmits and receives signals from our nearest tower to your home or business, allowing you access to the Internet. Each of our towers have access points which broadcast our signals to the subscriber module at your home or business.
Surge Protector
We use surge protectors to protect your computer from lightning or static electricity. This device grounds the equipment to prevent your computer from harm.
Shielded Cable
Category 5 shielded cable provides an extra layer of protection compared to a standard Category 5 cable. This cable fits into your Network Interface Card, or router port, and links the Subscriber Module to your computer.
Power Supply
The power supply delivers energy to the Subscriber Module through the Shielded Category 5 Cable, keeping your Internet connection powered up.
Installation Process
Our installation process typically involves only 2 steps. First, a site survey has to be done in order
to see if you qualify for the service. Many times this requires our wireless team to gain roof access.
You do not need to be home during this time. After line of site to one of our towers is established,
a Customer Care Specialist will contact you to set up an installation date. If line of site is not
established, we will keep your account in our database so that we may contact you when the service becomes
available in your area.
On the day of installation, a member of our wireless team will re-affirm the best place to put the
subscriber module for the best possible reception of our tower's signal. Next, the wireless installer
will affix the subscriber module to this place. After this, the Category 5 Shielded Cable is run from
the subscriber module to a grounded surge protector. From there, the wireless installer will configure
the radio settings. Our installers will set up service to one computer, and you are then free to network
any additional computers independently. Customers do not pay extra for multiple computers.
