WiNetworks Announces Pico Base Station for Optimized Indoor & Outdoor WiMAX Coverage

NEW YORK--(BUSINESS WIRE)----WiNetworks, a pioneer and leader in the development and integration of WiMAX 802.16e Wave 2 (MIMO) technologies, has announced the availability of a Pico Base Station for optimizing indoor and outdoor WiMAX coverage. The Pico Base Station, part of the Win-Max family of products, is available in the 2.XGHz and 3.XGHz frequency range.

The WiN7200 is a scalable, single piece mini base station that provides dedicated outdoor coverage and enhanced in-building services and capacity. The small size and limited output power make it an ideal choice for indoor/outdoor installations which deliver WiMAX high speed broadband. The smaller mini-size makes this solution the lowest cost base station available for a high speed WiMAX access.

Building upon the success of the Compact Base Station (WiN7000), the Pico Base Station uses the same architecture and software for easy integration and deployment in hybrid environments. Both products support interfaces to the ASN Gateway and follow the WiMAX Forum's recommendations for interoperability. This allows the Pico Base Station to be installed in any existing network with complete interoperability to all 3rd party WiMAX Certified equipment.

Monica Paolini, President of Senza Fili Consulting, experts in developing a wireless data strategy and in assessing the demand for wireless services, states, "Indoor and high-capacity coverage have become top-priority issues for operators. A wide variety of new network topologies will emerge and include different base station configurations". WiNetworks' new Pico Base Station will fill this need for indoor coverage in a flexible and cost effective manner.

"We are proud to be able to offer the market a Pico base station solution that will optimize both outdoor and indoor coverage," states Mr. Zvika Harnik, CEO of WiNetworks Ltd., "by re-using our existing software and architectural structure, we are able to offer the operators a stable, field proven product that is also very low in cost."

The Compact and Pico Base Station Family (WiN7000-7200 series) and Customer Premise Equipment (WiN5000 series) are part of the Win-Max E series product family and are managed by the WiNMS Network Management System. All Win-Max products are SOC based.

WiNetworks will be showing the Pico Base Station at WiMAX Forum Global Congress, June 17-18, in Amsterdam, and at CommunicAsia, June 17-20, in Singapore.
