BOCA RATON, FL and SOSNOWEIC, POLAND, - Airspan Networks Inc., a leading
provider of broadband wireless access networks, and Milmex Systemy
Komputerowe, one of Poland's largest systems integrators, announced
today the launch of a countrywide 4G mobile communications network
incorporating Airspan's Air4G WiMAX/LTE cutting-edge technology. The
total initial investment by Milmex, including Airspan infrastructure, is
over $25 million for the first phase deployment of their network. |
Airspan's Air4G base station delivers LTE and WiMAX functionality
with the capability of running both platforms simultaneously. Milmex is
combining Air4G with the latest and most robust core network products
available to enable customers to enjoy true 4G broadband connectivity in
urban and rural Polish regions alike.
Operating in the 3.5 GHz band, the solution is a fully compact, outdoor,
all-in-one base station which allows for quick and easy deployment. Its
low power consumption means a greener, more environmentally friendly
operation. With lower capital and operating costs, Air4G enables Milmex
to maximize its return on investment and achieve a faster market
penetration rate, satisfying the growing demand for bandwidth across
Poland.
"Milmex has been an ideal and visionary partner for this Poland
deployment," commented Amit Ancikovsky, President, Sales and Products at
Airspan Networks. "Poland faces many deployment challenges, but has been
one of the faster growing broadband connectivity nations in Europe. The
Polish population is constantly demanding newer, faster, more reliable
connectivity. We are very proud of our growing relationship with Milmex
and are looking forward to the continued deployment of this ambitious
project."
Zbigniew Krzysko, President of the Board at Milmex Systemy Komputerowe,
added, "We selected Airspan, a 4G equipment vendor that could provide
not only the best 4G equipment and features but also the company with
the strongest product roadmap, ensuring a reliable, robust and
future-proof network."
Airspan provides a wide range of products operating in the 700 MHz band
up to the 6 GHz band and combines multi-platform solutions including
WiMAX, LTE, GSM and backhaul.
