Parallel Wireless trials ‘self-configuring’ public safety network in New Hampshire
Parallel Wireless is deploying a band 14 public safety network in rural NH that
will demonstrate interoperability and ease of deployment, as well as automation
of configuration and maintenance. In addition to demonstrating interoperability,
this trial network will also address the requirements of FirstNet to provide voice
and data coverage from rural, to in-buildings, to in-vehicles.
Interoperability is one key aspect of the deployment.
… sometimes first responders are deployed to an area with
no cellular coverage. In that situation, the company's CWS-
200, a ruggedized in-vehicle eNodeB and Wi-Fi Access
point, could be a solution. The CWS-200 is a compact,
self-configuring mesh solution. The device can provide
its own backhaul via LTE or satellite.

The most interesting new entrant in the wireless
base-station market is a New Hampshire startup with a
penchant for thinking differently.
Although Parallel Wireless did not have a dedicated stand at
APCO 2015, the company appeared in Cisco's exhibit ... By
including Parallel Wireless – which brings a proven
platform for outdoor or vehicle-mounted deployment to
the Cisco story ... But the move was also striking in that it
spotlighted Cisco's inability to leverage the small-cell
investment it made in 2013 with its acquisition of
Ubiquisys, a small-cell specialist.
