Linkwave Wireless Solutions

What Linkwave Wireless Solutions does

Linkwave Wireless Solutions is a Canadian systems integrator founded in 2012 by Alex Berezhnoy in the Greater Toronto Area, specializing in the design, deployment, and lifecycle maintenance of in-building and outdoor wireless infrastructure. The company delivers Distributed Antenna Systems (DAS) across Active, Passive, and Hybrid Fiber/Coax architectures, alongside Private 5G networks, Public Safety Radio (ERCES) systems, Enterprise Wi-Fi, Land Mobile Radio (LMR), and transit connectivity solutions. Operating on a vendor-independent model, Linkwave combines hardware from multiple OEMs including Nokia, Motorola Solutions, SOLiD, CommScope/Andrews, ADRF, Nextivity, and BTI Wireless with proprietary hybrid engineering approaches designed to address challenging RF environments such as LEED-certified high-rises, subterranean tunnels, and high-security nuclear facilities.

The firm serves enterprise and government customers across Canada and the United States through four regional offices (North York ON, White Rock BC, Deux-Montagnes QC, and Wilmington DE), supported by direct enterprise field sales and an inside sales/24-7 support operation. Revenue is generated primarily through fixed-price turnkey project contracts covering site survey, design, procurement, installation, and commissioning, supplemented by hardware pass-through, recurring managed services with SLAs, and emerging leasing/OpEx-based financing models. Key verticals include healthcare (Humber River Hospital, Hôpital Vaudreuil-Soulanges, CHU Sainte-Justine, Lakeridge Health), transit (Union Station, Metrolinx GO Transit, Finch West LRT), government (MacDonald Block, Detroit Windsor Tunnel), data centres (Microsoft), energy (Pickering Nuclear), and large industrial customers (Toyota, Costco).

Pricing is structured on a per-square-foot basis ranging from $0.75–$1.50 for basic coverage to $5.00+ for complex environments such as hospitals and stadiums, with multi-year contracts and flexible CapEx-to-OpEx financing options. The company differentiates on carrier-grade engineering expertise (PEO, OIQ, EGBC licensed professionals), deep regulatory compliance across US (IFC, NFPA, UL) and Canadian (NBC, NFC, ISED) fire and building codes, and an end-to-end single-point-of-responsibility delivery model that has produced 50+ major project wins and a reported 99.9% system uptime across deployments.
