01 Where It Fits

Rural demand pockets where fibre is delayed or uneconomic.

Rural Town

Macro coverage with fibre or microwave backhaul for concentrated village or township demand.

Farmland / Outback

Long-reach coverage with satellite or hybrid transport where population density does not justify urban-style buildouts.

FWA Broadband

5G FWA for homes, farms, and small businesses where fibre remains uneconomic or delayed.

Neutral Host

Shared infrastructure models where one physical site serves multiple operator or enterprise tenants.

02 Architecture

Access, CPE, backhaul, and service model — fitted into one PulseM plan.

Access Model

Macro radio for reach, FWA for broadband fill.

PulseM access covers the demand pocket without forcing an urban fibre-style build.

Backhaul Choice

Fibre, microwave, satellite, or hybrid SD-WAN per site.

Transport is selected per site, including hybrid and failover paths.

Shared RAN

Neutral-host and shared site models reduce pressure on tower economics.

Useful where multiple parties need coverage but no single operator should carry the full site burden alone.

Service Layer

Subscriber, policy, and broadband service controls sized for regional operations.

The PulseM footprint stays compact while still supporting rural access, broadband plans, and regional backhaul diversity.

03 Why It Works

Coverage economics, transport flexibility, and broadband utility.

Coverage economics

The solution acknowledges that rural coverage is often negative-NPV under urban deployment assumptions.

Transport flexibility

Different backhaul options can be mixed site by site across regional footprints.

Broadband utility

FWA gives the business case a practical broadband anchor where mobility alone would not justify the investment.
