xG Technology�s xMax Passes Key FCC Compliance Tests

TMCnet Associate Editor

xG Technology today announced that its xMax technology has passed Federal Communications Commission compliance tests.



xMax is an innovative modulation and encoding technology that dramatically improves transmission of radio frequency signals in both wired and wireless environments. The result is the ability to transmit high speed data over greater distances using ultra low RF power output levels.

xG held its first public demonstration of the new technology for media and investors in November. Specifically, the company showed off the capabilities of an xMax equipped transmitter, which was used to broadcast a 3.67 Mbps signal more than 18 miles using just 35 milliwatts of RF output power.



The FCC testing which took place this past week showed that the xMax signal meets both conducted power and conducted bandwidth requirements for operation within the ISM 900 MHz unlicensed band.

“While these test results formally confirm what we already knew, it nevertheless is a very important step in our path to market,” said Roger Branton, chief operating officer for xG. “Our equipment can transmit high data rates over long range at low power - a perfect solution for broadband deployment.”

In another demonstration, an xMax unit was used to transmit video at a distance of 100 feet using only 300 nanowatts of transmitted power. This is significant when compared to typical 802.11 WLAN technology, which transmits up to 3 million times more power.

xG reports that its xMax products will be ready for market by the end of the second quarter 2006.

In related news, xG also announced that the London office of Credit Suisse has been selected as xG Technology’s strategic advisor.
