Located in Canada's cold Arctic, Fort McPherson is as dependent on Internet connectivity as any other community in North America.
However, conditions in the Arctic present unique challenges for external hardware, primarily because of extreme cold and wind conditions.
As well, remote, northern communities generally do not have the staff to deploy and maintain sophisticated WiFi solutions.
However, using economically-priced and easy to deploy AireSurf technology, municipal employees in this remote community will soon enjoy wide coverage that will link them into the local government's intranet and, one day might provide them with other services, like VoIP.
Whether accessing government databases or emailing a colleague, AireSurf's technology will allow municipal workers in McPherson to access a reliable WiFi network.
Internet connectivity in this community is currently via satellite, which makes it costly for individual residents to have a high-speed Internet connection.
In an upcoming test, the municipal government will be offering its AireSurf WiFi network for public access, something it can only afford to do thanks to the cost-effective AireSurf solution.
