PePWave, which makes Wifi gear for municipal networks and consumers, today introduced a new WLAN solution. Consisting of two core components, PePWave PolePoint, an enterprise grade Wi-Fi Access Point; and the PePWave Central Management System (PCMS), a comprehensive web management suite.

PePWave says they allow businesses to deploy and maintain advanced wireless networks with hassle-free setup and zero software installation.

“We automate much of the initial configuration, monitoring systems, and network maintenance to significantly reduce the cost of building and operating a wireless network,” said Alex Chan, PePWave’s Managing Director.

PePWave’s automated setup allows large networks or multiple remote networks with hundreds of PolePoint AP’s to be created in three easy steps.

  1. Sign up for a free account at PePWave Central Management System (PCMS).
  2. Create and apply configuration profiles to target PolePoint AP’s.
  3. Power up the PolePoint devices, and plug them into an Internet connected network.

The new PolePoint devices will then self-discover their configuration profile and apply it automatically after being powered up.

PePWave Central Management System (PCMS) is their web2.0 application hosted by PePWave. No client software installation is required.

By logging into the PCMS, a user can monitor all PolePoint devices in one web interface. Configurations can be applied to different device groups and the user can monitor device health status and prepare various usage reports.

In addition, PePWave also announced reduced pricing for select products across its Wi-Fi lineup. The PePWave Surf 200 is now available in North America for USD $99.
