FCC Regulations
Wireless coverage is limited by FCC transmit power restrictions placed on remote devices. These devices are usually limited to half the transmit power of an AP (and often even less)

FCC Regulations
Wireless coverage is limited by FCC transmit power restrictions placed on remote devices. These devices are usually limited to half the transmit power of an AP (and often even less)
Limited Connectivity
Therefore, the size of a coverage area is not determined by how far an antenna can propagate RF signal. Rather, coverage area size is determined by how far away a device can be and still connect back to an AP. A device may be able to receive signal, but it's useless if that device can't transmit back to the AP due to its FCC-restricted power.
Seeing a Need
Recognizing this device power limitation as a major obstacle to large-scale wireless connectivity and the deployment of larger networks, we set out to create a solution.
Asymmetrical Gain™
Through years of rigorous lab trials and field tests we developed Apogee™, an antenna which produces an unprecedented receive gain of 24dbi while keeping transmit gain at an FCC-compliant 9dbi. This Asymmetrical Gain™ enables all devices, regardless of power limits, to connect to a wireless network reliably over large distances.

Mark and Elaine co-founded Accel Networks in 2002. Accel was the first to design and deploy an antenna system that enabled the use of cellular for mission critical communications.Accel was awarded a method patent for the system, Maestro, in 2013. From a pure start up, Accel Networks grew into a premier managed service provider serving national Fortune 1000 retail chains such as Dunkin’ Donuts, O’Reilly Automotive, Leslie Pools, Cash America, Loves Country Stores, Trader Joes among many others. Accel was acquired by Sierra Wireless in 2015.
We develop proprietary antenna technology that enables large-scale WiFi and CBRS networks.
