Wireless Interference is not a problem with proper spectrum planning. It can be a real issue if the proper planning isn’t done. In basic terms, spectrum is to wireless like pipes are to plumbing, and you just can’t put two pipes in the same place.
Across our spectrum plan, we have products that range from 2GHz to 90GHz. At 2GHz the spectrum is omni-directional and perfect for multipoint connections and mobility. Conversely at 70/80GHz, we have hyper narrow beams that look like strings between the Campbell soup cans (with much higher capacity of course) and are a wonderful extension/compliment/alternative to fiber optic cable.
To help our customers with this rather complicated issue, GigaBeam has invested in planning tools, worked in concert with regulatory bodies globally to provide counsel on best practices and has an internal organization that specializes in system/network integration and planning so that the wireless component of any network we participate in is properly planned and executed. We also have created a broad portfolio so that if you live in a region where one band is clogged you can choose another one.
It is all about careful planning, and while wireless can experience interference let me close with a corollary thought, which is that interference is a part of the wired industry, in a sense, as well. Statistics show that everyday a backhoe inadvertently “interferes” with (i.e. cuts through) fiber optic cables every single day.
