Fujitsu Network Communications and Fujitsu Microelectronics America Inc. recently announced a comprehensive WiMAX strategic vision that covers development of every major component in the WiMAX network, including silicon platforms, electronic devices, radio access network solutions, professional services and backhaul infrastructure solutions. The Fujitsu WiMAX platform will allow carriers to work with one strategic partner for broadband wireless networks.
The new product line includes two models of base stations for indoor or outdoor use. These base stations will have a RF unit and a baseband unit. The system is based on the ratified IEEE 802.16-2005 standard and the WiMAX Forum definition of mobile WiMAX.
“Our standards-based, end-to-end WiMAX solution provides superior performance and flexibility for fixed and mobile services, with high bandwidth and a wide coverage area,” said Eisuke Iwabuchi, president of the mobile system business unit of Fujitsu Limited. “A key advantage of our solution is that it allows for easy installation and cost-effective network design, while providing high-speed connections for users and tight integration with all IP networks.”
The WiMAX platform will be on display this week at the WiMAX World Conference & Exposition in Boston.
