Mountain View, CA, February 10, 2010 ― PureWave Networks, the developer of high performance, compact outdoor Mobile WiMAX (802.16e) base stations announced today that it has been selected by Razzolink as the company’s exclusive provider of Mobile WiMAX equipment.
“We at Razzolink have deployed and tested WiMAX base stations from three leading vendors”, said Tony Iacopi, Co-Founder and EVP of Razzolink. “We have decided to standardize on PureWave Quantum base stations for reasons which include reliability, ability to utilize market sourced CPE, service and price. After working with Purewave for over a year we believe that their product will allow us to be nimble both with regards to our expansion into new markets and in converting existing customers to our new Mobile WiMAX network.”
PureWave Quantum base stations utilize smart antenna technology for greater range and capacity and are designed to be deployed completely outdoors with no need for either shelter or air-conditioning, greatly reducing site deployment and maintenance costs. The base stations can offer an effective range of up to 12 miles or more, and can operate with or without an ASN gateway, greatly reducing operators’ upfront capital spending when launching into new markets.
“We are delighted to be Razzolink’s vendor of choice for their growing Mobile WiMAX network”, said Gideon Ben-Efraim, PureWave CEO and Chairman. “PureWave Quantum base stations are ideal for providing WiMAX coverage to rural communities. Operators that plan to profitably serve communities with such low population densities, need to remove as much cost from the equation as possible. PureWave Quantum base stations offer exactly that, while delivering superior performance”.
