Powertec Wireless Technology and Zetifi have announced a new strategic partnership that aims to enhance connectivity across regional and remote areas in Australia.

According to the companies, the collaboration intends to leverage Zetifi's advanced smart antenna technology to provide improved communication solutions where traditional systems often fall short.

The integration of Zetifi’s location-aware variable gain Smart Antennas is a key component of this initiative. These antennas are designed to adapt to their surroundings, optimising signal strength and ensuring reliable connectivity in locations such as farms, remote worksites, and outback communities.

Powertec Wireless Technology is an Australian provider of wireless communication solutions. Established in 2000, the company's products and services are designed to ensure its customers stay connected even in the most challenging environments.

"We are proud to partner with Zetifi to bring this innovative solution to market, helping Australians stay connected with reliable, adaptable, and high-performance communication tools," Roy said.

"This partnership underscores our commitment to delivering top-tier wireless solutions that address the unique challenges faced by our customers.”

Roy also highlighted the synergy between Zetifi’s technology and existing products. “The combination of Zetifi’s innovative antenna technology with the Nextivity R41 product is a powerful synergy.

"This partnership is about integrating cutting-edge technology with market-leading products to ensure our customers have access to the best connectivity solutions available,” he added.

Dan Winson, Chief Executive Officer at Zetifi, echoed this enthusiasm: “We’re thrilled to be partnering with Powertec, a company that shares our commitment to innovation and customer service.

"Our Smart Antennas are designed to tackle the unique connectivity challenges of regional and remote Australia, and with Powertec’s extensive distribution network and expertise, we’re confident that we can reach more people and make a real difference in their lives," he said.

Winson also expressed excitement about the prospects of working with Powertec on the Nextivity R41 product. “The opportunity to work with Powertec on expanding the reach of the Nextivity R41 is particularly exciting. This product has proven itself in a range of challenging environments, and together, we can ensure that even more Australians benefit from enhanced mobile coverage, no matter where they are,” he stated.

The new partnership is expected to significantly transform remote connectivity, addressing both current demands and future needs across Australia’s diverse landscape.
