Cisco unveils a new set of end-to-end Wi-Fi solutions for service providers, featuring HDVX (High-Definition Voice Experience) technology that enables HD VoWi-Fi (Voice over Wi-Fi). According to Cisco, the industry first Universal Wi-Fi solution will enable service providers to offer a high-quality calling alternative to users, complementing cellular voice services. 

Cisco said that the Universal Wi-Fi solution provides the highest available throughput over a wide area, delivering pervasive coverage indoors and outdoors with a full portfolio of 802.11ac products, including the new Cisco Aironet 1570 and Cisco Aironet 1700 Series. The Cisco Aironet 1570 is the most powerful and longest-range outdoor 802.11ac access point on the market, said Cisco. The solution portfolio consists of a range of indoor and outdoor gears, including Cisco Aironet 802.11ac access points, the Cisco 8500 Wireless Controller, the Cisco ASR 1000 Series router for intelligent subscriber management, and the Cisco ASR 5000 Series Small Cell Gateway for seamless integration with the mobile packet core. 

Jesus Perez, CTO, Telecable
We are pleased with our widespread deployment of the Cisco Aironet 1552 and are eager to introduce the Cisco Aironet 1570, which has many of the next-generation features on our roadmap, including high-performance 802.11ac and a 24x8 cable modem.

Suraj Shetty, Vice President/General Manager, Mobility Solutions, Service Provider Mobility Business Group, Cisco
Voice over Wi-Fi marks a new era for service providers, and Cisco is excited to work with our customers to capture this transformational shift. With High-Definition Voice Experience, Wi-Fi becomes a truly integrated feature in the network. It is only with a universal approach to Wi-Fi and to the network that service providers can offer a superior-quality Voice over Wi-Fi experience to their customers.
