The outdoor network will use TIP OpenWi-Fi-based access points, point-to-point radios, solar power over Ethernet devices, and other network equipment. i2e1 (PM-WANI compliant WiFi company) will provide network authentication and regulatory monitoring besides acting as the Public Data Office Aggregator (PDOA) under the PM-WANI model.
