Airties has launched a new software platform that will enable ISPs to manage broadband performance and customer experience within multifamily dwelling units (MDUs).
Airties Multi is a purpose-built solution for MDUs, providing a hardware agnostic software platform that enables ISPs to combine residential gateways within units with enterprise-grade access points in common areas to deliver a converged, scalable, and cost-effective connectivity experience. It runs on ISPs’ existing residential hardware to provide a scalable, low-cost solution for all MDU stakeholders, including ISPs, property managers, homeowners’ associations, and residents.
“Airties Multi was designed to help ISPs enhance their core connectivity business, attract new customers, and improve customer satisfaction through a premium broadband experience that was purpose-built for MDUs,” said Metin Taskin, founder and CEO of Airties. “It provides a hardware agnostic software platform enabling ISPs to combine residential Wi-Fi gateways and extenders with enterprise grade access points in common areas to deliver a converged connectivity experience.
The MDU sector is seeing substantial growth, driven by the increasing demand for reliable connectivity solutions in residential buildings. Industry research indicates that most residents prefer having community-wide, pre-installed Wi-Fi offerings. Residents are looking for enhanced amenities, including connected fitness centres, EV car-charging with connectivity in garages, and common business areas or centres for remote work. This presents a unique opportunity for ISPs to deliver better connectivity solutions that meet the needs of modern tenants.
Airties Multi provides enhanced features such as Wi-Fi optimization, device management, seamless onboarding, and roaming across multifamily dwelling units.
Sister product Airties Home has been widely deployed by leading ISPs, including AT&T, Deutsche Telekom, Telia, Telstra, T-Mobile US, Vodafone, amongst others to manage the in-home broadband experience for millions of subscribers.
