Powerwave Introduces High Capacity, Long-Reach Fiber Optic Repeaters for EMEA Region Frequencies

GSMA Mobile World Congress 2009, Stand #8C115 – Powerwave Technologies, Inc. (NASDAQ:PWAV), a global leader in end-to-end wireless coverage and capacity solutions, today announced general availability of its wideband Nexus™ FT, single- and dual-band repeaters for commercial frequencies in Europe, Middle East and Africa, delivering a powerful, yet cost-effective means for EMEA operators to extend the capacity and reach of their wireless networks.

Powerwave’s single- and dual-band Nexus FT repeaters feature a modular and robust design that is easy to install, supports multi-operator and multi-band operation, and offers high capacity and long-reach fiber optic distribution. This enables deployment up to 25km (15 miles) from an existing base station hotel, extending the coverage area and capacity of existing wireless networks.

“To date, operators have offered in-building coverage through macro networks; however, as data traffic increases and new services are implemented, requirements to maintain and improve quality of service are driving the deployment of in-building wireless coverage systems. These next-generation solutions are key to helping wireless operators overcoming these challenges and differentiate their offerings,” said Khurram P. Sheikh, chief product and development officer, Powerwave Technologies, Inc.

To help operators overcome these obstacles, Powerwave has developed its family of Nexus FT repeaters, which are designed to minimize system complexity, operational costs, visual impact and upgrade costs, providing high quality coverage close to the mobile user to ensure 3G and 4G capabilities can be fully realized in the coverage area.

Optimized for use in high capacity coverage systems, Powerwave’s Nexus FT repeaters leverage energy-efficient, multi-carrier power amplifiers (MCPAs) to reduce power requirements at the remote site, which makes them ideal for multi-operator and multi-band deployments. The ultra linear performance of the Nexus repeaters delivers built-in support for 900MHz EGSM and WCDMA, 1800MHZ DCS and 2100 WCDMA. Coupled with the integrated broadband fiber transport solution, Nexus FT repeaters provide seamless support for future technologies.

Using Powerwave’s repeaters, operators can implement new modulation schemes without impacting coverage footprint, which can reduce the costs associated with network upgrades. A maintenance-free passive cooling system eliminates scheduled maintenance, and enables Powerwave’s Nexus FT-based solutions to deliver the lowest total cost of ownership in the industry.

Powerwave’s Nexus FT repeaters can be managed remotely through Powerwave’s Netway Manager, an SNMP-based platform that centrally monitors and manages critical network interconnected remote controlled devices. An option is also available that enables the Nexus FT to be managed via a third-party SNMP-compliant NMS software package.

All part numbers offer an IP65 and NEMA 4 protection rating, and are fully weather- and lightning-protected for pole, rooftop or tower-top deployments.
