Support Nomad's support function provides a combination of support models appropriate to the deployed solution. Our support function monitors both vehicle borne and land based equipment using Nomad's monitoring tools that have been specially designed for monitoring mobile IP networks and devices.

Utilizing our many years of experience in the managed service environment, Nomad's various levels of support packages range from a totally managed support service to helping the customer establish their own support function backed up with Nomad specialist resource.

For partner led solutions, typically support will be provided by the partner with Nomad providing specialist support. In this scenario, the partner may choose to use either Nomad tools for network and device monitoring or their own network monitoring tool.

Network Design and BuildNomad’s solutions will typically use public networks to provide backhaul from the vehicles to the shore however there are occasions where lack of network coverage or the need for significant bandwidth means that public networks alone do not provide adequate bandwidth for the broadband applications. In these scenarios, Nomad can build network infrastructure in order to provide “infill”.

Nomad has deployed private proprietary networks around the world. To date these networks have been a mixture of proprietary WiMax and mobile Wimax (e802.16). Nomad will take responsibility for RF survey, network design, approval and installation and commissioning. Nomad will also monitor the network performance and provide on-going support and monitoring
