More information about the HaleNET Broadband Offerings
HaleNET will be offering broadband using 4 delivery methods
ADSL
Wireless
Optical Fibre
satelite
Why the three differnt methods?
HaleNET has chosen these 3 methods because no 1 method fits all situations.
ADSL is only available in ADSL enabled exchanges, where the customers telephone line is copper all the way back to the enabled exchange. This limitation prevents many customers from being able to access ADSL.
ADSL also requires that we go through Telstra for the delivery and that customers have a Telstra preselected telephone line.
Wireless is a good delivery method, however over 2 years of testing and development has identified that the requirement for a direct line of sight to a repeater is a genuine limitation. Trees and buildings often impeed the path. This requires more repeaters to cover an area.
Optical fibre is the technology of the future. We have identified that by using optical fibre to the premises or home that we can overcome many of the limitations of both ADSL and wireless while at the same time providing a long term communications solution.
We have chosen our equipment vendors for the optical solution
