Airspan Networks introduces WiMAX into the 1.4~1.5 GHz bands
Sunday, August 10th, 2008 – 6:08 pmAirspan Networks has introduced a new fixed WiMAX (IEEE 802.16-2004) system that supports the 1.4~1.5 GHz frequency bands. The solution includes base station equipment and a suite of subscriber devices including models with support for Voice over IP and Wi-Fi.
Legacy TDM radio relay systems in 1.5 GHz were often deployed for voice services by operators with universal service obligations. Now, many countries are pursuing those same obligations for broadband. The Airspan introduction provides a broadband product in the same frequency and offers lifeline quality voice when coupled with the company’s VoiceMAX box for VoIP (Voice over IP) QoS (Quality of Service) over a WiMAX network.
