Solution
Long-Distance Wireless Backhaul
Connect remote sites, islands and provinces with fibre-like wireless links, where cabling is impractical or too costly.
- Links up to 25 km
- 30+ hops
- Privately owned network
The problem
Remote locations often have limited cellular coverage and no realistic route for fibre. Mountains, water and distance all make conventional infrastructure slow and expensive to build.
Long chains of conventional point-to-point radios lose capacity with each hop, and add more hardware and more points of failure.
How Anywhere solves it
Anywhere nodes act as a virtual fibre, combining point-to-point, ring and mesh topologies into one privately owned network. Dual radios sustain throughput across multiple hops, and links can be designed to run up to 25 km between sites.
Key capabilities
- Links up to 25 km, depending on antennas, throughput and conditions
- Mix point-to-point, point-to-multipoint, ring and mesh in one network
- Greater than 30 hops of backhaul on dual-radio nodes
- Privately owned, with no recurring operator fees
- Works alongside existing fibre to extend or back it up
- Wide antenna choice, including panel and dish options
Who this is for
- Provincial and regional governments
- Island and coastal developments
- Rural connectivity programmes
- Remote industrial sites
- Service providers

How far can one wireless link reach?
Range depends on the throughput needed, the antennas used and the radio path. Links can be designed for up to 25 km. Our team can help you model a specific route.
Is it a replacement for fibre?
It can replace fibre where cabling is impractical or too costly, and it can also extend or back up an existing fibre network.
