Strix Systems, the market and technology leader in high-performance wireless mesh networking, announced the inflow of strategic investments from global investors driving the company’s increased growth, rapid expansion and new technology developments for international and U.S. markets.

Strix Systems has re-defined the concept of high-performance wireless mesh networking and set a new standard for wireless mobility and high-speed transport. The expansion marks a new chapter in the history of Strix Systems, enabling the company to increase the size of its U.S. and international sales, support organizations and increase its marketing and educational resources to spur the adoption of wireless mesh networks worldwide.

In addition, a new engineering organization has been established at a state-of-the-art R&D center in India, enhancing the company’s global reach and support network. This new center will play a key role in accelerating the company’s development of new wireless mesh networking products and services. Cost-effective manufacturing that only an international presence in Asia can provide will also be added to the company’s portfolio.

Recently the company announced a number of new products including Strix Hot Zone Systems (HSx), the Integrated Wireless Video System (IWVS) and the Mobile Wireless System (MWS) as well as key technology partnerships with leaders in public safety include Milestone Systems, Federal Signal, ICOP Digital, Panasonic, etc.

It is quite frankly the best performing wireless solution we have ever seen and our customers love it,” said James Vaughan, VP of Sales, Preferred Technology Solutions in Richardson, Texas. “We're glad to see such a strategic investment in Strix as we have many opportunities ahead of us.”

This is a great opportunity for Strix to expand and we have many new projects in the Indian Subcontinent utilizing their products.”
