Metro Zone Cellular Data Offloading

---

The increase in smart phone usage and the subsequent explosion of data traffic on cellular networks has caused an immediate need for carriers to offload the data traffic from the network, so that both voice and data services perform optimally. Due to the built-in Wi-Fi capabilities of the millions of smart phones and other devices on the market, Wi-Fi emerged as a natural technology solution for operators struggling to adapt to the surge towards mobile internet services. Operators are rapidly increasing the use of Wi-Fi as a key data-offloading strategy.
