Commercial Services
IPKeys engineers have been providing advanced Information Technology solutions to over 1000 customers over the last 20 years. As industry leaders, we have a history of analyzing and adapting new technologies way before any of the competition. The original concept focused on reselling Information Technology networking products from tier one and tier two companies like Bay Networks, Cisco, Foundry, HP, Tricord, Network Appliance and CA. Our senior engineering team all worked directly for manufacturers prior to adapting the ‘engineering reseller channel’ model.
As early adapters, the company installed the first FDDI (fiber data distributed interconnect) networks in Southern California, the first ATM (Asynchronous Transfer Mode) in San Diego, the first layer three switches in Mexico, and the first Cisco AVVID (architecture for voice, video, and integrated data)in the western United States. We recognized early on that products from different manufacturers did not necessarily work well together and that there was a large requirement for advanced engineering to ensure success of complex system integration.

Wireless Solutions
the rapid rise of wireless local-area networks (WLANs) and public hot spots, there is a rapidly increasing trend in the application-driven Muni Wi-Fi market. Improved public safety, enhanced first responder readiness, and better community services are amongst other reasons for the emergence of wireless meshes. The first phase of deployment located around public safety and municipal building includes the installation of hot spots to seed the network architecture. In the second phase, the network is expanded into a seamless wireless broadband cloud to create a mobility corridor. As consultants and integrators, IPKeys will conduct all design work, implementation and network management of these wireless mesh networks.
