The collaboration between SmartCIC and REISS, spanning over 13 years, has taken a quantum leap with the recent implementation of 5G FWA at REISS' Manhattan headquarters.

This entails connections from the two top-performing cellular providers specific to each site, ensuring not only reliability but also robust performance. The end-to-end approach, covering everything from line and cabling to hardware and support, underscores SmartCIC's commitment to providing a cost-efficient solution with guaranteed performance.
REISS' customers stand to gain from this technological leap, ushering in a new era of interactive and seamless in-store experiences. The challenges posed by traditional connectivity solutions in New York's bustling environment are met with SmartCIC's innovative approach, proving that fixed wireless is not just a choice but a strategic one.
