TV whitespace broadband
Our solution goes where broadband has never gone before, connecting the unconnected.
Whitespace Description
TV Whitespace Access
So what is TV whitespace? That’s also really simple.
Whitespace is the name given to gaps in the old TV wireless spectrum used before the big digital TV switchover.
We can now deliver broadband in these gaps over several kilometres, and the signal can travel over hills and challenging terrain, through Buildings and trees with ease.
This makes our solution go where broadband has never gone before, connecting the unconnected.
Whitespace is perfect for lots of uses, such as providing broadband connectivity to rural communities, delivering wireless connectivity across campuses, and connecting IoT devices in urban areas.
If you’re an ISP looking to go the last mile through trees or over hills or if you’re the community behind the hills and through the trees and need connecting, We need to speak to you…. . and we’re ready to help deliver the connectivity you deserve.
How it works
1 Your whitespace client device ‘talks’ to our base station
2 The base station connects to the database over
the internet to find the best connection available
3 The database gives the whitespace client a list of available channels to use
4 And the connection is made to the ISP service

Great to see the new Carlson Wireless Technologies hardware get it's certification last week.

We're delighted to be connecting the unconnected in Argyll & Bute, starting with Loch Striven. It's a beautiful part of the world, but like many rural areas has been left behind when it comes to connectivity.

Half the Whitespace team are in Scotland this week, installing a TVWS connection for a customer in Dumfries & Galloway.
It's very wet and blustery, but we're up and running! #tvws #ruralbroadband #connectingtheunconnected #whitespace
This is great news for people in these communities, but we still need to do a lot more to connect the unconnected across the UK and globally: https://buff.ly/2HOrdoI

So excited to announce we’re now a signatory of the #techtalentcharter @techcharterUK working to increase diversity in the tech industry.
The National Farmers Union (NFU Online) published the results of their latest survey today. Whilst some improvements have been made it's clear that we are still failing our rural communities when it comes to connectivity and infrastructure.
Take a look at our infographic here which shows the key points: http://ow.ly/CqNV30nkThz

Every bit of this article is spot on, except the national problem part. This is a global problem that can be solved, right now. We just need to do it.
