Fujitsu Network Communications has unveiled the BroadOne WX series of mobile WiMAX base stations.
The BroadOne WX series of base stations are among the smallest, most power-efficient in the industry, the company said. The first base station launched in the series is the BroadOne WX300 outdoor macrocell base station.
Fujitsu has designed its new base stations to meet the global requirements for mobile WiMAX networks.
The company plans to provide three base station models designed for the 2.5GHz and 2.3GHz frequency bands. These bands have gained global acceptance and constitute a major portion of the worldwide WiMAX market.
The first model is the BroadOne WX300 outdoor macrocell base station, which is designed for wide-area transmission over a radius of almost two miles. The second model, a compact outdoor microcell base station, is designed for transmission over a nearly 1,000-foot radius to fill in areas with a lower concentration of users and remote areas with poor coverage. The third model is an indoor, ultra-compact picocell base station.
All base stations will support multiple input multiple output (MIMO) technology operating in both Matrix A and B to improve system performance.
Fujitsu is unveiling its new BroadOne brand name with the launch of the BroadOne WX300. The name was chosen to reflect the Fujitsu advanced technologies that will enable wireless networks, the company said.
