Universal Wireless Transport™ platform powers secure
high-speed wide area networks on any frequency between 100 MHz and
6 GHz
TORONTO, May 20, 2013 /CNW/ - Redline Communications
(www.rdlcom.com Group Inc. TSX: RDL), a leading provider of
broadband wireless solutions for industrial and telecom
applications, today unveiled its Universal Wireless Transport™
platform (UWT™), the industry's first and only wireless broadband
network solution to operate on any frequency between 100 MHz and 6
GHz - in licensed, reserved and unlicensed bands. This frequency
range encompasses virtually all wireless broadband applications -
effectively delivering broadband in any available spectrum. Redline
technology already produces secure wireless networks that have the
fastest speeds over the longest distances with the lowest latency,
and construction that delivers rugged reliability in harsh remote
environments. With the integration of UWT, Redline now brings its
customers unparalleled flexibility and the fastest time to
deployment for private wide area networks.
"Networks are literally the backbone of industry and commerce,
used to increase the velocity of operations, guarantee workplace
safety and save lives," said Bojan
Subasic, vice president of R&D for Redline
Communications. "Redline believes that network architects should
never sacrifice perfect for practical when designing mission
critical networks, and our new wireless network platform means that
all networks can be wireless, even with the most challenging
circumstances. Simply put, the performance, reliability and
flexibility of the Universal Wireless Transport platform means this
new equipment will be the last network infrastructure product
Redline customers will ever need to buy."
For multinational companies, such as oil and gas producers where
the use of different frequencies may also be required within a
single oil field, Redline can now support all their international
locations and frequency needs using just one product. Not
only does the platform operate on key bands including 450 MHz, 600
MHz, 900 MHz, 2.5 GHz, 3.5 GHz, 4.4 GHz and 4.9 GHz and 5.8 GHz, it
can also operate on any frequency between, allowing customers to
use any and all available spectrum. The UWT gives Redline customers
a single secure platform from which to power the broadest range of
IP applications on a single network - from "heavy" applications
requiring data speeds of 100 Mbps or greater, to lighter
applications such as small packet VoIP and machine-to-machine (M2M)
communications, without making any design sacrifices.
Redline's common platform approach simplifies network design and
reduces the time and cost of training, service and maintenance.
Central to the new UWT platform are software adaptable radios that
can be managed, configured and upgraded over the air. UWT can cover
the widest range of distances with true broadband speeds and
unmatched security. The platform's software adaptable radios
can be remotely configured for different frequency ranges, as well
as point-to-point or point-to-multipoint configurations, capacity
and now frequency.
"Software-defined networking (SDN) is not only lending
much-needed flexibility to wireless networks in a variety of ways -
it's also changing the economics of wireless network
infrastructure," said Ed Gubbins,
senior analyst for mobile access infrastructure at Current
Analysis. "Redline's embrace of the technology allows a broad range
of industries tap into the value of SDN that is also being unlocked
by some of the world's leading mobile operators."
"Available spectrum is scarce, and specific frequencies are not
consistently available across the globe," said Subasic. "While
using a single frequency everywhere around the world would be
easier for global enterprises, network planners must also account
for different topographies, scarce availability of unlicensed
spectrum, and local regulations governing the use of licensed and
unlicensed spectrum. Inevitably the best network architecture
will use a combination of frequencies, but until now no one vendor
could offer a single platform delivering the best performance, and
consistent management across a wide range of spectrum."
UWT is a ground-up reengineering of Redline's award-winning
backhaul networking technologies designed with fewer components to
reduce power consumption, making it suitable for remote locations
where it can be powered using alternative energy sources such as
solar. With unparalleled flexibility, scalability and
reliability, UWT is fully backward compatible with all of Redline's
network systems deployed around the globe by telecom service
providers, oil and gas producers, public safety agencies,
governments and other private networks.
UWT is a finalist in CTIA's 2013 E-Tech Awards
competition. Attendees of CTIA 2013 can learn more about UWT
and Redline's portfolio of wireless broadband products in booth
#4946.
