Redline Launches Into Licensed Microwave Market With the RDL-5000
TORONTO, November 9, 2011/PRNewswire/ --
-- Virtual Fiber(TM) cost-effectively powers 4G and LTE
networks, facilitates ultra high speed access for enterprises --
Redline Communications Group Inc. ("Redline [http://www.rdlcom.com ]")
(TSX: RDL), a leading global provider of specialized broadband wireless
systems, today announced the availability of its high end licensed microwave
product the RDL-5000, a high capacity, high power, packet microwave radio
platform for Telecom backhaul and large enterprise connectivity.
With demand for video and other ultra high speed IP-based data services
predicted to grow rapidly over the coming years, consuming more and more of
the available bandwidth and demanding higher speeds, networks will have to
keep pace. This means more base stations in more locations and greater
capacity between base stations and to the enterprise.
The RDL-5000 is a key component of Redline's wireless Virtual Fiber(TM)
product line, bringing fiber-like network performance to areas where fiber
installation is challenging or cost prohibitive. It delivers high speed
connectivity wirelessly, replacing the need to dig trenches and lay wires,
and allowing service providers and enterprises alike to grow with user
demand.
The RDL-5000 wireless radio platform delivers throughput of up to 800
megabits per second," stated Rick Cuthhill, Director Product Management for
Redline. "With it, Service Providers can easily and quickly expand the
backhaul component of their networks to meet increased demand, and deliver
ultra high speed access services to their enterprise customers."
"Wireless backhaul is one of the fastest growing areas of our business.
To keep up with the growth in end customer demand for data services, we need
high capacity, high power microwave solutions that can be delivered cost
effectively" said Ahmed NAJI, Microwave Senior Manager with Médi Télécom,
a Redline customer and global telecoms operator in Morocco. "We really like
how the RDL-5000 provides greater capacity and lower latency at any
frequency, and unparalleled switching functionality without added latency,
and we also like that this product is being delivered and supported locally
with Redline professional services. All of this translates into a better
return on investment for us."
The high power, high-sensitivity radio means longer ranges can be
achieved at higher data speeds, while using smaller antennas. Its built-in,
2-port, gigabit Ethernet switch provides unparalleled application
versatility and supports redundancy in both traditional point-to-point and
ring/mesh topologies for maximum flexibility in network design. The radio
operates in all of the 6 to 38 GHz licensed bands, conforming to both ANSI
and ETSI standards, and can be managed from any location through Redline's
ClearView NMS, a full-featured network management system.
To date, the RDL-5000 has been successfully deployed in the Middle East,
North Africa and Central America. Redline will be offering the product to
its full customer base in the upcoming weeks.
