Batelco,\na leading digital solutions provider in the Kingdom of Bahrain and Aptilo\nNetworks have entered into a partnership to deliver business-to-business or B2B2C\nWi-Fi services in Bahrain. Batelco has selected the Aptilo Service\nManagement Platform (SMP) with the Aptilo SMP Venue Wi-Fi Manager to\ndeploy a nationwide managed Wi-Fi service.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Batelco\noffers managed venue Wi-Fi services to enterprise customers, with the service\ndeployed either on top of the customer’s existing Wi-Fi equipment or as a fully\nmanaged service with the Wi-Fi infrastructure included.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Batelco\nGeneral Manager Enterprise Abderrahmane Mounir said: “We were looking for\na vendor agnostic solution that could match our high ambitions in scaling our Wi-Fi\nbusiness both in terms of volume and functionality and at the same time have a\nplatform that will allow Batelco and its enterprise customers to engage with\nthe Wi-Fi users.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
“Aptilo’s\nproven track-record in innovation and stability makes them the right choice for\nus to support the growing demands of our enterprise customers.\u201d.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Furthermore,\nBatelco will deploy an additional Wi-Fi connection (SSID) exclusively for\nBatelco subscribers at most public locations. When Batelco mobile subscribers\nswitch on their Wi-Fi, they will instantaneously connect to the secure Wi-Fi\nnetwork at these locations. It is the SIM-authentication functionality of the\nAptilo SMP that makes the Wi-Fi network as secure and seamless as any mobile\nnetwork.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
“Operator\nmanaged Wi-Fi is crucial not only as a profitable business but also to get\nindoor footprint for subscribers. This will become increasingly important in\nthe 5G era,” said Anders Emilsson, VP Sales Middle East\n& Africa, Aptilo Networks.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
“We\nare proud that Bahrain’s leading operator has selected us. Their\ninsights in the market and the dynamics of Wi-Fi will make them very successful.”<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
