TMCX SOLUTION PARTNERS
The Tropos Metro Compliant Extensions (TMCX) was developed by Tropos as a best
practice specification for Wi-Fi devices used for access to outdoor Wi-Fi networks.
After several years of extensive testing and feedback from real customers, Tropos developed an understanding into how and why all W-Fi client devices aren't created equal. Most Wi-Fi clients were created to operate indoors, but the outdoor environment presents additional challenges to client operation. To help make the end-user experience more consistent and yet seamless to them, Tropos created the TMCX specification. TMCX outlines a set of best practices for device manufactures. Over time, the TMCX specification has been modified and improved to include mobile and voice devices. Vendors who validate their implementation of the mandatory TMCX specification elements can apply to Tropos to be approved as a TMCX compliant solution.
