The webinar discussed how wireless internet and SD-WAN can be combined for faster, more reliable connectivity. Broad Sky Networks is the largest fixed wireless provider in the US and Canada. They overviewed how SD-WAN works and the advantages of adding wireless as a secondary circuit for failover, load balancing, and accessing speeds not available through aging DSL lines. Broad Sky's multi-carrier approach provides better coverage than any single carrier alone. They highlighted drawbacks of DIY wireless deployments and USB modems. Broad Sky offers a managed SD-WAN+Wireless solution for $699/month including a router and national footprint.
Broad Sky talks about SD-WAN, why it's one of the fastest growing products in telecom today and the importance of Wireless in an SD-WAN deployment. Also, all wireless backups are not created equal so find out Why Broad Sky.
Gold Standard Wireless - Broad Sky Networks Oct. 2018Maureen Donovan
All wireless is not created equal and customers need to know the difference. Quality matters, find out why and how in this deep dive about current technologies being deployed, state of the networks and what's on the road for the future.
It's common business policy for organizations of a certain size to have two data centers as part of a disaster recovery or business continuity plan. However, most enterprise - applications are not designed for or intended to use systems in two different locations.
Enter the notion of a data center interconnect, which extends an Ethernet network between two physically separate data centers. While the idea is simple, Ethernet wasn't designed to run across a wide area network. Thus, a DCI implementation requires a variety of technological fixes to work around Ethernet's limitations.
This report outlines the issues that complicate DCIs, such as loops that can bring down networks and traffic trombones that eat up bandwidth. It also examines the variety of options companies have to connect two or more data centers, including dark fiber, MPLS services and MLAG, as well as vendor specific options such as Cisco OTV and HP EVI. The report looks at the pros and cons of each option.

Search and Society: Reimagining Information Access for Radical FuturesBhaskar Mitra
The field of Information retrieval (IR) is currently undergoing a transformative shift, at least partly due to the emerging applications of generative AI to information access. In this talk, we will deliberate on the sociotechnical implications of generative AI for information access. We will argue that there is both a critical necessity and an exciting opportunity for the IR community to re-center our research agendas on societal needs while dismantling the artificial separation between the work on fairness, accountability, transparency, and ethics in IR and the rest of IR research. Instead of adopting a reactionary strategy of trying to mitigate potential social harms from emerging technologies, the community should aim to proactively set the research agenda for the kinds of systems we should build inspired by diverse explicitly stated sociotechnical imaginaries. The sociotechnical imaginaries that underpin the design and development of information access technologies needs to be explicitly articulated, and we need to develop theories of change in context of these diverse perspectives. Our guiding future imaginaries must be informed by other academic fields, such as democratic theory and critical theory, and should be co-developed with social science scholars, legal scholars, civil rights and social justice activists, and artists, among others.

3. About Broad Sky Networks
The nation’s largest fixed wireless provider for business.
Founded: August 2003
Headquarters: Bend, OR
Markets: Nationwide coverage in Continental US and Canada
Sister Company: (installation and service nationwide)
4. About Broad Sky Networks
● Welcome & Introductions
● Broad Sky Networks Overview & Background
● Quick History of SD-WAN
● Broad Sky’s Wireless & SD-WAN Approach
● Pricing
● Discussion/Q & A Session
5. SDWAN is HOT!
● SD-WAN – 2018’s hottest trend in networking
○ Allows traffic to be routed over the best available circuit
○ Conditions the traffic to run smoother over a single circuit
○ Can split traffic on two paths, reassembling the content on the other end
■ Utilizes all available internet speeds when communicating between branches
○ Makes an effective failover device when 2+ circuits are installed
6. Where Wireless Helps
● Wireless is an effective circuit to add to an SD-WAN circuit
● Failover: Wireless is the only network diverse and route diverse circuit
available to most businesses
● Second circuit availability
● SD-WAN’s load balancing and channel bonding requires two circuits
to be effective.
● Wireless is in many cases the only realistic fast second internet circuit
available vs slow aging DSL
9. Advances in Wireless Speeds: Explained?
Broadcast Side
● LTE-A is a Verizon Term. Carrier Aggregation is the actual Industry
term but it manages to be boring and misleading at the same time.
Bonded LTE is our term but frankly it’s not catching on…..what is it?
● It’s Channel Bonding for Wireless. Multiple Frequencies are now
being broadcast from the same cell tower. Up to 13 available paths.
● Each is a separate channel for internet download.
10. Carrier Aggregation:
Receive Side
● Wireless modem/router must have CAT6 chipset installed to pick up additional
frequencies
● Routers manufactured before Q4 2016 will not have this chipset
● Routers continue to be manufactured utilizing the CAT4 chipset (cheaper and
slower)
● Broad Sky ONLY deploys CAT6 chipset modems for customers (as of 2017)
● CAT6 chipset routers are future-proofed and will detect Bonded LTE signal as it
becomes available
11. Professional Networking
Requirements
● USB modems have small gain antennas
● USB handoffs are inherently slower and offer fewer options for traffic control
● Industry standard networking calls for Ethernet handoff for many applications
● USB modems do not offer signal strength readings or signal quality data
● USB modems are cheap, flimsy, and tracked onto the side of a device often
breaking, becoming dislodged, or simply failing due to low initial quality
12. USB Drawbacks Continued:
● USB modems are much more likely to NOT pick up LTE-Advanced signal and
run on slower single band LTE
● USB modems cannot carrier switch on site like routers can
● USB modems have no onboard processors
● USB modem reporting portals are crude or non existent showing device status,
traffic passed, and troubleshooting and update capabilities.
● A high quality SD-WAN solutions should have high quality wireless solution
13. Install Initial Quality: Coverage
● Broad Sky maps address against internal carrier coverage tools
● Broad Sky selects Carrier 1 based on strongest signal
● Carrier 2 is slotted to Sim slot 2
● Router deployed
● Field Switch to Sim 2 is possible in field. 5 minute changeover
● 97% success rate utilizing this process
14. Multi-Site Profile
● Pooled GB plan regardless of underlying Carrier
● Dual sim deployment at each location
● Single pane of glass management of all devices
● Flexibility on GB data pool size
● Reporting of data usage across all carriers.
15. Multi Carrier-One Solution
● No One Carrier has the best signal strength and Bonded LTE
everywhere
● Multiple Carriers are required to achieve best overall performance
● Dual Sim deployment ensures best chance of peak signal strength
● Managing multiple carrier contracts, weak signal environments,
multiple data pools is the hidden cost of DIY deployment
16. DIY Case Study: National Brand Retail
● 400+ locations
● Deployed Cisco Meraki with USB modems for failover second path
● 30% coverage fail on VZN only
● Economics:
○ $360,000 Capex
○ $6,000/MRC
○ 3 year term
○ 150 add’l locations contracted and locked for install
○ Estimated $100,000 IT staff investment to date
17. DIY Case Study: MSP SDWAN
● 75 Locations
● Sourced SDWAN box with Cat3 Modem
● $15,000 Capex + $5,000 MRC
● Performance:
○ 30% fail rate on initial coverage. No dual sim load requires manual carrier swap.
○ 7 down 3 up speeds. VoIP performance spotty due to higher latency
○ Usage Reporting was inconsistent leading to uncontrolled overages
○ Broad Sky comparable solution: $3800 MRC. $0 Capex. Gold Standard
performance.
18. Why Wireless?
● Truly Unbreakable internet. It can’t be cut. No other access method can say that.
● High Speed Wireless delivers SDWAN performance to DSL primary/DSL backup
sites.
● It’ll work. DIY deployments become a nightmare. You’ll be responsible. You
don’t want that.
○ Customers giving up an MPLS network might need an additional security
measure to move. They may never voice this fear. The real speed that’s
available from a full blown wireless option that cannot be cut goes right to
the heart of their concern.
19. Broad Sky SDWAN+
● 100GB Data plan
● $699/month…Includes Router! (discount of 45% off normal rates)
● No Static IP
● Must handoff to SDWAN appliance
● 3 year Term
● 80% National Footprint, 24 hour qualification of opportunity
