Start-up wireless networking distributor Cogent Distribution has plugged a gap in the UK channel market by offering an alternative set of solutions to resellers of wireless and mobile connectivity, claims MD Jim Kernahan.
The company launched this month following a link-up with Peplink which provides SD-WAN, load balancing, VPN and proprietary bonding solutions designed to increase and secure wireless bandwidth.
"The rapid expansion of mobile and smart devices underscores the importance of delivering reliable, high speed wireless connectivity," said Kernahan.
He also noted that the company has three core focus areas - high speed outdoor fixed wireless, indoor wireless and mobile data routing - and that technical expertise and fast product availability are also a priority.
"In the UK and Ireland there is a significant opportunity to bring Peplink products to a far wider audience," added Kernahan. "We are well placed to do so and looking forward to the challenge."
The Peplink portfolio is supported by radio solutions from Siklu and Mobile Mark's range of antennas that work with Peplink's mobile data routing products, as well as covering other areas of wireless connectivity.
?"Cogent is working closely with a number of manufacturers to deliver new products, consultancy and design services that integrate into existing customer infrastructures," confirmed Kernahan.
Analyst forecasts indicate that spending on wireless telecoms worldwide will hit circa $871bn by the end of 2017.
