Information

RAPID: Enabling Access for Rural Communities with the Alcatel 1511 BA - Dec. 21, 2005 
Voice telephony is still the major revenue generator for many service providers. Rural access for POTS, ISDN and data (RAPID) proves to be effective and cost efficient in scarcely populated regions, and is therefore complementary to other rural access technologies such as fixed wireless access, fixed cellular, satellite and new wireless access technologies, such as WiFi and WiMAX. It allows service providers to maximize revenues, and at the same time control costs of network deployment, while increasing teledensity in rural areas. Its compactness enables fast deployment that allows service providers to offer services and ensure minimized payback time in rural areas with low average revenue per user. In addition to voice communications, RAPID also supports data and Ethernet access, hence helping to bridge the digital divide by increasing the availability of access to communication resources.
