The exhibit will feature four unique solutions pods, highlighting Spacenet solutions sets for some of the top challenges facing today's retail network, including: Access Strategy - Spacenet develops an access strategy for the retailer's overall network using a technology-neutral (Cable, EoC, Fiber, DSL, 4G and VSAT) approach that provides the greatest coverage and lowest total cost of ownership. Wi-Fi Communications - Spacenet provides centralized, full-scale program management of in-store Wi-Fi deployment and operations for consistency in management, maintenance and security throughout each store and across the enterprise. Unified Communications (News - Alert) - Spacenet helps optimize business processes and communications by integrating real-time (instant messaging, presence information, telephony, video conferencing) and non-real-time (voicemail, email, SMS, fax) technologies across all devices and media, leveraging its MPLS network to deliver an enhanced user experience through Quality of Service (QoS).
