LONDON, April 25, 2016 /PRNewswire/ --TV Connect 2016 -
April 25, 2016 – Norwegian service
provider Get has selected the VAP4300 wireless extender from ARRIS
International, plc (NASDAQ: ARRS) to optimize home Wi-Fi
experiences.
Consumers demand fast, reliable broadband wherever they are in
their home to stream live video, enjoy rich gaming experiences or
share and discover new content. Frustration appears when Wi-Fi
cannot reach all corners of the house. The ARRIS CEI research shows
that 72 percent of people want high speed internet in every room
and 54 percent want to extend their Wi-Fi beyond its current
range.
The ARRIS VAP4300 wireless extender will amplify the wireless
signal to improve coverage. And its plug-mounted design
enables a quick and easy installation. It can also be set up as a
new access point for added stability and higher speeds.
"To get the most out of the fast broadband connection coming
into their homes, our customers need fast, reliable wireless
coverage wherever they are in their homes - Get is focused on
delivering this seamless coverage. A solution to help optimize the
home Wi-Fi network is the VAP4300 wireless extender from ARRIS,"
said Dan Ramunddal, CTO, Get. "By locating the router at the center
of the home and adding the new wireless extender, our customers
will enjoy a reliable and stable Wi-Fi experience."
"People want more from their broadband, and in many cases, the
limitation is their home Wi-Fi - they're asking for Wi-Fi without
limits. Wi-Fi extenders, like the ARRIS VAP4300, offer service
providers a quick and simple install solution to ease customer
frustration and reduce customer service calls," said Jim Henderson, Senior Vice President,
International CPE, ARRIS. "We're predicting that in five
years, the modern home will require three extenders to meet
connectivity needs. We look forward to continued collaboration with
Get, working together on solutions to further improve the home
network and consumer Wi-Fi experience."
The ARRIS VAP4300 wireless extender will be available for Get
customer from April 2016
