DragonWave Inc. announced packet microwave radio deal with Italian Internet service provider  Fidoka Srl to supply Harmony Enhanced radios.

Fidoka Srl, a member of the Servili Computer Srl consortium, selected Harmony Enhanced after testing and analysis. The ISP can deploy DragonWave’s Harmony Enhanced radios, with up to 4Gbps of capacity and GaN technology that increases reach by nearly 30 percent, on longer links than competitive products and use smaller antennas.

“The technological aspects inherent in the Harmony Enhanced enable a network architecture like no other product we tested, making it the logical choice for Fidoka as we continue to provide exceptional service our customers have come to expect,” said Francesco Maria Compagnucci member of Research and Technical Development team at Fidoka Srl.

In addition to Capex and Opex benefits, Harmony Enhanced radio allows operators to effectively scale their networks with spectral efficiency and increased capacity that is enabled through 112 MHz channel support, Bandwidth Accelerator+, 4096QAM, and MIMO upgradability.

These capabilities allow Harmony Enhanced to deliver >2 Gbps in a single radio, with scalability via MIMO to 4 Gbps in a single channel. Bandwidth Accelerator+ provides >2 times throughput improvements with the inclusion of header optimization and the industry’s only bulk compression working in tandem.
