Arcadian launches first private, secure wireless data communication carrier
Backed by Goldman Sachs and Tel-Aviv-based Gilo Ventures, Acadian Networks, a telecommunications carrier has launched the U.S.’s first private secure wireless data communication network for utilities and other ‘dispersed-asset’ industries. This new network will allow customers to collect, monitor, and respond to mission-critical data in real time in the 700-MHz broadband range. Arcadian is providing this service in twenty-three states. “Arcadian Networks’ service addresses a proven need for a truly customizable, secure and reliable, end-to-end solution for any industry looking to capture data from the field and manage assets remotely,” said Gil Perez, CEO of Arcadian Networks. The network is designed for industries including the water, oil, gas, and other infrastructure utilities, which have data networks over large expanses of land where other communication alternatives may not be available.
