Connectivity for Smart Cities

SolveForce provides connectivity for smart city initiatives. Solutions support IoT sensors, edge analytics, public safety communications, and resilient municipal networks.

Key Terms

  • Connectivity

    The fiber, 5G, and fixed wireless links that connect traffic signals, cameras, sensors, and municipal buildings to city data platforms.

  • 5G

    The fifth-generation cellular standard, offering higher capacity and lower latency than LTE, as public, private (CBRS), or fixed wireless service.

  • Fixed Wireless

    Broadband delivered by point-to-point (PTP) or point-to-multipoint (PTMP) radio links between fixed antennas, including 5G fixed wireless access (FWA).

  • Edge

    Compute or network functions placed close to users or devices to cut latency.

  • Zero Trust

    A security model that grants no implicit trust and continuously verifies every user, device, and request before and during access.

  • Latency

    The time data takes to travel from source to destination across a network, measured in milliseconds (ms) and stated as one-way or round-trip.

Key terms in plain language

Open a term for a concise explanation of language used on this page.

Fiber Internet

Internet delivered through strands of glass using light. Fiber commonly supports high capacity, low latency, and strong upload performance, but availability must be confirmed for the exact address.

Latency

The time it takes data to travel between two points. Lower latency improves voice, video meetings, cloud applications, gaming, and other real-time services.

SD-WAN

Software-defined wide area networking. It manages multiple connections and chooses paths based on application needs, performance, and policy to improve resilience and control.

Cybersecurity

The practices and controls used to protect identities, devices, networks, applications, and data from unauthorized access, disruption, or manipulation.

Fixed Wireless

Internet delivered wirelessly between a provider’s network and a fixed antenna at the customer location. It can serve as a primary connection or a diverse backup path.

Zero Trust

A security model that does not automatically trust a user or device because of its location. Access is continuously verified and limited to what is necessary.
