Redline Communications has received Federal Communications Commission (FCC ( News - Alert)) approval for its RedMAX WiMAX Outdoor Subscriber Unit (SU-O) in the United States. Redline can now offer the only complete FCC-certified WiMAX ( News - Alert) system for the newly-available 3.65 GHz frequency band.
“Redline is pleased to be celebrating another first in WiMAX , as the first equipment manufacturer to receive FCC approval for 3.65 GHz WiMAX products,” said Kevin Suitor ( News - Alert), vice president, Marketing and Business Development in a statement.
Suitor explained that Redline is set to meet the pent up demand in the United States for their RedMAX products, which are among the most widely-deployed WiMAX Forum Certified systems, and are now powering 44 commercial networks around the world. He noted that Redline's focus on high-performance and interoperable network equipment has enabled operators worldwide to reap the benefits of true WiMAX technologies.
Redline's RedMAX SU-O is ideal for outdoor installation at business or residential locations to establish broadband wireless connectivity to the network operator's WiMAX base station . The company explains that each Redline RedMAX AN-100U base station can provide broadband connections to thousands of business or residential users.
Mario Pidutti, director, Product Management at Redline emphasized that Redline's RedMAX products are well suited for deployment in the 3.65 GHz band under the rules set out by the FCC.
Pidutti said that using time-division duplexing (TDD), RedMAX products enable service providers to support high volumes of traffic within a small amount of spectrum. He added that this technology advantage translates to a stronger business model, as the operator can support a higher number of commercial subscribers and generate more revenues from their network.
Redline Communications ( News - Alert) is a provider of standards-based wireless broadband solutions. Redline's RedMAX WiMAX Forum Certified systems and award-winning RedCONNEX family of broadband wireless infrastructure products enable service providers and other network operators to cost-effectively deliver high-bandwidth services including voice, video and data communications.
