Druid’s Raemis solution is a low power GSM network, implemented in software on a single platform, with all the features of a public GSM network including voice, messaging and data, protected by the embedded security of the GSM protocols.
Our channel partners use the Raemis platform to build Private Mobile Networks (PMNs), using standard GSM handsets, for a growing number of market applications. All of these applications take advantage of the accessibility that Druid offers to high-end GSM technology but at an affordable price not previously available.
Campus Site Networks
Low power GSM licensing initiatives are clearing the way for proven GSM technology to be used to provide mobility for corporate enterprise and office telephone networks. This is a superior alternative to existing solutions in many respects, including the availability of low cost handsets, better radio coverage, stronger security and more user functionality.
Raemis allows standard GSM handsets to be used in place of fixed line handsets in office and other corporate environments, but with local mobility on the premises which can be spread across multiple locations. Seamless integration and roaming with the public GSM network is also possible with the agreement of a mobile network operator.
Raemis can either be integrated with existing office PBX or IP-PBX systems or delivered with this functionality embedded. Hence the GSM handsets function as fully featured PBX extensions but with the benefits of mobility, messaging and data.
Enterprise Office Telephony
For enterprise customers who wish to use their GSM handsets on the macro network as normal, but also avail of local telephony networks at their offices, the Raemis product provides a unique solution in the market.
- Users are reachable outside and inside the office through one number
- When in range of the offices enterprise cells, users are also reachable on office numbers available from the enterprise telephony service providers (e.g. fixed line or VOIP numbers)
- Calls within the office can be delivered through all service providers on a least cost basis and inter-office calls are free of charge
- Local telephony service available through the enterprise cells when the link to the GSM operator's network is down (e.g. DSL connection down)
Aviation
Raemis enhances and expands on existing solutions provided to the growing inflight GSM market, lowering the costs and increasing the flexibility and functionality available with these solutions.
- Inflight GPRS/EDGE data services are delivered at reduced costs using acceleration, compression and caching techniques.
- Local data breakout techniques enable a local onboard data portal.
- Existing single cell deployments are enhanced with multi cell capability.
- Alternate telephony networks can be selected for onboard subscriber groups (e.g. crew calls directly through airline network).
- Inflight messaging service facilitates announcements to passengers/crew.
Maritime
Raemis enables new models for communications on board maritime vessels.
- Cargo vessels have generally had a single communications device, paid for by the shipping company and only usable in a single location on the ship. Raemis transfers the costs to the crew member for the communication and makes the service available throughout the vessel.
- Data compression, acceleration and caching techniques employed by Raemis can provide unrivaled backhaul communications savings.
Private / Remote / Temporary GSM Networks
Raemis dramatically reduces the costs of delivering a full GSM network service with a small hardware footprint. This enables applications in new markets:
- Raemis can be used to deliver remote rural telephone services at a lower cost than the available alternatives.
- Mobile "GSM in a suitcase" applications are enabled by Raemis.
