Services
Skyriver offered dedicated, symmetrical commercial broadband Internet service and VPN, scalable up to 500 Mbps throughout Southern CA. Skyriver was a business ISP that did not provide residential services. Product suite includes: Skyriver Magnitude Broadband and VPN (mmWave); Skyriver Enterprise and Skyriver Pro (fixed wireless); Event/Hospitality Bandwidth; and temporary Internet for construction sites.
Skyriver used fixed wireless technology between mountain top and building top base stations to create a core network with a ring architecture with numerous gigabit connections to major data centers for Tier 1 peering to the Internet. For the core network, Skyriver utilized FCC licensed spectrum including 11 and 18 GHz for fixed wireless. Skyriver extended service from their core network to their customers via licensed millimeter wave spectrum (39 GHz and 31 GHz).
Skyriver's network was wholly owned - it did not lease or utilize any of the network architecture from major telecommunication providers.
