Reliable Connectivity Solutions for:

Retail Stores and Service Chains

Primary or Failover Network for Customers and Operations

Business-Critical Connectivity for Remote Locations

POS, Mobile Couponing, Mobile Payment, loyalty apps

Wherever there are roads and people, there are retail stores, restaurants, and service stations. In rural areas, keeping systems connected can be challenging. Modern networks may not be as reliable as needed in outlying areas and it can hard to maintain / restore Wi-Fi in remote locations. Nextivity HPUE  IntelliRange® Technology enables voice, data, and video in rural, edge-of-network, and shielded locations where signal connectivity may be spotty. For retailers and service providers with out-of-the way locations, this can mean the difference between business-as-usual vs. constant IT issues.

High Power User Equipment (HPUE) is a specialized class of cellular device with up to 6x the uplink power of standard devices. Nextivity SHIELD MegaFi 2 and MegaGo 2 HPUE routers maintain a reliable cellular connection to the macro network and then use that signal to create a Wi-Fi hot spot that is robust enough for primary or backup connectivity.

What Causes Dead Spots?

Proximity to Towers

Uplink power on standard devices is not as strong as the power of the signal coming from the tower, making it difficult to send communication when towers are far away.

Terrain

In remote areas, especially where there are hills, valleys, trees, and other natural features, the landscape itself can interfere with signals.

Building Materials

Building shadows, garages, and other urban structures often create pockets of dead zones. Having to connect and reconnect can waste valuable time.

Use Cases for Retailers and Service Providers

Whether your business is serving locals or travelers, you still need connectivity – for your customers, employees, and business operations. Nextivity HPUE technology supports all three. Here are some reasons to install HPUE routers in your hard-to-reach locations.

  • Back-up or primary network for transactions – PoS, Mobile, etc.
  • Loyalty card usage, mobile couponing
  • Customer experience and convenience
  • Security cameras and alarms
  • 9-1-1 calls for worker/customer safety
  • Data transmission / connectivity to regional and national sales leaders

Easy-to-Install, No Disruption

Remote Management Assures It’s Working
