Eugene, OR. October 1, 2019 – EDX Wireless, the leading provider of wireless network design
solutions, announces the release of SignalPro v9.0. The latest wireless network design
software from EDX features the industry’s first usage-based licensing, allowing network
operators and design consultants the opportunity to use SignalPro on a monthly or prepaid
annual basis.
Cirrus Licensing provides project-based licensing for flexibility of use. It is an end-to-end
solution that provides instant access to network design software as well as high-resolution
data. Users have several options to choose from to fit their particular business model, including
the Monthly Lease option for short-term projects and RFP responses and quick turnaround
times. For those who have unpredictable work periods throughout the year, the Prepaid-Days-
Per-Year option may be the best fit, as it allows you to use your allotted time at any point during
the year. Both of the above options grant access to EDX’s high-resolution data subscription
service, which provides land use and terrain data for the entire US. In addition, EDX offers the
Perpetual Hybrid licensing option for users with Perpetual SignalPro licenses who wish to
“surge” up licensing on demand during busy times without the added costs of procuring all new
Licensing.
“More and more of our customers are seeing their usage come in bursts,” said Lorne Liechty,
CEO of EDX Wireless; “We want to provide solutions that adapt with them, help them solve
problems and ultimately, grow their business. We see the short-term, low-cost to entry licensing
options as an opportunity for us to listen to our customers’ needs and deliver a product that’s
aligned with what makes them successful.”
SignalPro v9.0 has also received a major upgrade that better leverages the processing power of
multi-core machines, and as such, produces a better than 3x improvement in study speed for
area studies.
The new Grid Optimized Radials calculation method adds radials into the calculation as the
study grid moves further away from the sector, providing a substantial increase in prediction
accuracy at long distances while minimizing the impact of increased computation time.
SignalPro v9.0 also has the ability to create coverage maps that cover very large regions,
including entire states or even the nation, vastly improving productivity as you no longer have to
reset your study grid, run several studies and stitch them together outside of SignalPro.
