Airties has been selected by the Malaysian operator Astro to supply it with a portfolio of Smart Wi-Fi software and services for broadband subscribers across its fibre footprint.

Astro have deployed Airties’ Smart Wi-Fi SaaS offering, which includes Airties Edge smart Wi-Fi software for gateways; Airties Cloud, a cloud-based SaaS management platform and a customized version of Airties’ companion Vision app, called the Astro Fibre App.
“Through Astro Fibre, we are committed to bringing the fastest speeds and the latest Wi-Fi 6 technology to our broadband customers,” said Mauro Di Pietro Paolo, Chief Technology Officer of Astro. “The Astro Fibre app with Airties’ Smart Wi-Fi solutions strengthens our Astro Fibre offering by giving our customers the power to fully control, monitor and secure their home network.”
“Astro’s new Fibre service delivers the ultimate Internet connectivity, and we’re extremely proud to have been chosen to support them in their rollout through Malaysia,” adds Metin Taskin, CEO & CTO of Airties. “Our Smart Wi-Fi solutions dynamically optimize Wi-Fi performance and allow operators to manage their subscribers’ connected home experience. We look forward to supporting Astro as it continues to gain market adoption for its exceptional fiber service.”
