Out taking Monopoly

• PALESTINIAN SERVICE PROVISION MARKET WAS MONOPOLIZED FOR A PERIOD OF OVER 15 YEARS.

• CUPPER CABLING INFRASTRUCTURE.• AS MONOPOLY IS, THE CLIENT IS THE

LEAST OF IMPORTANCE, PEOPLE HAD TO WAIT OVER 90 DAYS FOR A LANDLINE APPLICATION TO GET INTO FIELD ACTION.

ROI Studies

• FTTH Network – Fail• FTTH With the Electricity Company -

Fail• New landline operator Fail• Cable Network Fail• Wireless Broadband gave the answer

– CAPEX– OPEX

CAPEX leverage

• SHORT DEPLOYMENT PERIOD• LOW DEPLOYMENT COST BETWEEN SMALL

VILLAGE'S• WIDER FOOT PRINT IN SHORTER

TIMEFRAME • CHEAPER CPE’S – NO SUBSIDIZING

NEEDED• SCALED BANDWIDTH UPON NETWORK

NEED• HIGHER EFFICIENCY TO REACH ANY CLIENT• MICROWAVE OFFERS A MUCH BETTER

COST-PER-BIT RATIO THAN FIBER WITHOUT COMPROMISING ON AVAILABILITY OR RELIABILITY.

OPEX Leverage

• MUCH EASIER TO MAINTAIN• LESS FORCES AND TOOLS• SHORTER TIME TO DELIVER• OPERATORS MIGHT LEVERAGE

EXISTING FACILITIES TO GENERATE MORE REVENUES

• HIGHER SLA BY USING THE 1+1 TOPOLOGY

• EQUIPMENT CAN BE DISASSEMBLED AND RELOCATED SOMEWHERE ELSE

Something is missing…

• Coolnet in order to further infiltrate, had to take leaps of faith, we successfully participated in our first tendering project valued at 250,000 USD for the Palestinian civil police VPN network.

• Not only did we win the grant of project implementation, it was as well an excellent reference for our prospects.

• Post this project Coolnet was able by then to acknowledge new expansions.

Coolnet Road Map

• Adding More cells• Increasing speeds• Wider Foot Print

Closing

• THERE ARE DIFFICULTIES IN ENTERING AN IDEA SUCH AS WIRELESS NETWORKING INTO A MARKET.

IF IT WORKED IN PALESTINE IT DEFINITELY CAN BE TUNED TO WORK

ANY WHERE ELSE IN THE WORLD!
