Wavion(TM), a company transforming the Metro and Rural Wi-Fi market with a new category of Wi-Fi Base Station, announced today the opening of a local office in India. Wavion has recently signed partnership agreements with 3 distinguished and experienced Indian distributors to cover the entire India and support the growing need for broadband wireless connectivity in the country.

We have established a local office in order to be close to our customer base and be able to provide them with the best possible service and support," said Eran Kaplan, Wavion's Executive VP Sales and Marketing. "Our outdoor Wi-Fi solution is highly cost effective and offers superior performance in terms of coverage and indoor penetration. This creates a powerful value proposition with very low customer acquisition cost in the densely populated cities in India."

Wavion's National distribution partners in India include V LINK SYSTEMS Pvt. Ltd. Chennai, eROADS Infrastructure Pvt. Ltd. Delhi, and Brij Infotech Pvt. Ltd. Mumbai.
