Alvarion® Announces BreezeCOMPACT High Power Delivering Connectivity to Indoor Users

Alvarion^® Ltd. (NASDAQ: ALVR), a global provider of optimized wireless broadband solutions addressing the connectivity, coverage and capacity challenges of public and private networks, announced today the availability of a new component in its 4Motion® network solution - the BreezeCOMPACT High Power base station - to enable cost-effective deployment scenarios for operators needing to efficiently reach indoor users in dense urban environments.

The BreezeCOMPACT High Power allows operators to create a new deployment scenario by providing direct indoor connectivity, eliminating the pricey site acquisition and installation costs associated with outdoor CPEs in crowded spaces. As part of the BreezeCOMPACT Family of base stations, the BreezeCOMPACT High Power brings along all the benefits of a single-box architecture, all-outdoor chassis, small footprint and lower installation costs. The single-box architecture reduces OPEX (News - Alert) and CAPEX by providing true macro base station performance in an optimized all-outdoor/all-in-one small form factor. The High Power version will provide extended coverage range with the power necessary to penetrate to indoor CPEs such as USB dongles and indoor modems.

"Either in a Greenfield network or as part as a seamless 4Motion network expansion, customers can deploy the BreezeCOMPACT and BreezeCOMPACT High Power to add more capacity and coverage to reach more customers," stated Nir Golan, Executive Vice President, BWA Division. "Our customers now have more choices available to them in the 4Motion solution that will help them build their network according to the best-fit form factors and cost savings available."

The BreezeCOMPACT Family is TD-LTE (News - Alert) Advanced ready with a software upgrade and is part of the RAN portfolio in the 4Motion® solution. Alvarion's (News - Alert) end-to-end 4Motion solution comprising core networking, RAN and CPE portfolios, all managed by AlvariStar, Alvarion's network management system - is designed to supply customers with advanced broadband services at super-fast connections.

The BreezeCOMPACT High Power will make its debut at AfricaCom, Africa's largest telecommunications show, Cape Town, South Africa, November 13-15, booth D10a. To schedule a personal meeting with the Alvarion team, please contact corporate-sales@alvarion.com.
