Wireless Data Services (WDS), Inc. is a telecommunications company specializing in wireless data transport. We are headquartered in San Diego California. Our expertise and experience includes:
WDS was formed in 1999 by former members of Pacific Communication Sciences (PCSI), Inc. Emphasis was in cellular (mobile) technology and basestation design. WDS originally focused on the wireless technology called Cellular Digital Packet Data, or CDPD. WDS managed the manufacturing, testing, deployment, and support of CDPD equipment for AT&T Wireless, Verizon Wireless, Dobson Wireless, and Lucent Technology. WDS is proud of the strong service support that these customers have experienced and counted on since our beginning.
WDS has invested in fixed wireless expertise to complement the mobile wireless portion of our business. WDS is partnered with GyA Cellular International, S.A. (doing business as Inalambrica) to develop, deploy, and manage a wireless data transport network in San Jose, Costa Rica. This network delivers high speed data transport to corporate businesses that require high availability and cost effective data communication transport. A mix of telecommunication protocols make up this new network, including:
The radio elements include licensed band 18GHz for the network backbone, and UNII band (5.2 to 5.8 GHz) basestations and subscriber units. At each access node for the backbone a Cisco packet switch is deployed for routing the data packets either to another access node, or the appropriate UNII basestation.
WDS' responsibilities included the network design, equipment selection, system integration, development of address mapping (PVC and IP addressing), installation and commissioning of the radios and switch equipment.
WDS has taken its wireless infrastructure knowledge and expertise to new areas of wireless communications. Whether the need is for mobile communications or fixed wireless, WDS can deliver a wireless solution to meet your needs. Our expertise is still wireless. Our technical staff members are still dedicated to support CDPD. And our vision is to provide our strong service support to other areas of the wireless telecommunications and data transport industry.
