AirspaNetworks, a provider of broadband wireless access networks, and Milmex Systemy
Komputerowe, one of Poland’s largest systems integrators, announced the launch
of a countrywide 4G mobile communications network incorporating Airspan’s Air4G
WiMAX/LTE cutting-edge technology.
The total initial investment by Milmex, including Airspan
infrastructure, is over $25 million for the first phase deployment of their
network.
Airspan’s Air4G base station delivers LTE and WiMAX functionality with the capability of
running both platforms simultaneously. Milmex is combining Air4G with the
latest and most robust core network products available to enable customers to
enjoy true 4G broadband connectivity in urban and rural Polish regions alike.
Operating in the 3.5 GHz band, the solution is a fully compact, outdoor, all-in-one base
station which allows for quick and easy deployment. Its low power consumption
means a greener, more environmentally friendly operation.
With lower capital and operating costs, Air4G enables Milmex to maximize its return
on investment and achieve a faster market penetration rate, satisfying the
growing demand for bandwidth across Poland.
“Milmex has been an ideal and visionary partner for this Poland deployment,” said
Amit Ancikovsky, president, Sales and Products at Airspan Networks.
“Poland faces many deployment challenges, but has been one of the faster growing
broadband connectivity nations in Europe. The Polish population is constantly
demanding newer, faster, more reliable connectivity. We are very proud of our
growing relationship with Milmex and are looking forward to the continued
deployment of this ambitious project,” Ancikovsky added.
“We selected Airspan, a 4G equipment vendor that could provide not only the best 4G
equipment and features but also the company with the strongest product roadmap,
ensuring a reliable, robust and future-proof network,” said Zbigniew
Krzysko, president of the Board at Milmex Systemy Komputerowe.
Airspan provides a wide range of products operating in the 700 MHz band up to the 6 GHz
band and combines multi-platform solutions including WiMAX, LTE, GSM and
backhaul.
