As one of the first cities in the world, Jerusalem is establishing an independent municipal wireless network based on super-fast millimeter wave technology. The network will enable a variety of smart city services, from security and safety to traffic solutions and free Wi-Fi. A big part of the initiative is coordinated by Cisco, and the network is to be deployed within three months.
“From one of the oldest cities in the world, we are sending the most innovative news in the country, and the innovative technology we will establish in Jerusalem will enable us to upgrade many services,” said Mayor Nir Barkat.
