Mobile/SMS solutions (software and hardware) including FrontlineSMS with low-powered computing solutions suitable for both rural and urban solutions for data collection, project administration, eGovernment, surveys, education, health and market place uses. We install and maintain the SMS solutions.
Wireless Networking (In-Door & Out-Door):
The combination of technologies we install to accomplish project objectives and outcomes for our clients include Ubiquiti NanoStations - NS2, NS5, Linksys WRT54GL, Freifunk Firmware, and Tomato Open Source Firmware. Most projects have involved the set up of shared community wireless networks that ensures efficient usage of Internet, data and voice services in a community.
Power Solutions (Solar and Back-ups):
In areas with no power, solar solutions with quality batteries are installed. For continuous and filtered power use in areas with unstable grid power, we recommend and install battery banks to provide consistent filtered power to equipment with 55Ah, 75Ah, 100Ah, 200Ah Deep Cycle batteries. We partner with Deng Ghana Ltd to deploy specific power solutions in the field.
