GigaBeam Announces Another Order in United Kingdom for Proprietary Wireless Broadband Technology from New Customer FWA Solutions
GigaBeam Corporation (NASDAQ:GGBM), deploying WiFiber® "wireless fiber optics”
technology to economic centers across the globe, announced today that it
has received an order for one WiFiber link from a direct sale to FWA
Solutions Ltd., a U.K.-based value added distributor of high-performance
wireless communications solutions.
We believe this order further validates GigaBeam’s
commercialization strategy to penetrate major metropolitan areas around
the world with next generation wireless technology that is able to
bypass existing telecom infrastructure at speeds equal to 1,000 DSL
lines.
"The United Kingdom has long been a focus of
our efforts to expand in Europe and I believe that this order is an
important step towards establishing a major presence throughout the
continent,” said Louis Slaughter, Chairman and
Chief Executive Officer of GigaBeam. "We are
very pleased to be working with strategic partners such as FWA
Solutions. They are well respected and have a positive track record of
building truly next generation wireless networks.”
GigaBeam’s WiFiber technology is similar to
terrestrial fiber in terms of speed and reliability. WiFiber has a
substantial advantage over terrestrial fiber because it can be rapidly
deployed and costs significantly less to deploy than terrestrial fiber.
Terrestrial fiber can take months to deploy and also require significant
regulatory and environmental approvals prior to installation.
"There are few companies in the world that can
provide the hardware solutions that FWA needs to establish what we call ‘outdoor
broadband networks’ and GigaBeam certainly is
one of them,” said David Penny, Managing
Director of FWA Solutions. "We are very
pleased to be working with GigaBeam and look forward to expanding our
relationship in the future.”
GigaBeam WiFiber products operate in the 71-76 GHz and 81-86 GHz upper
millimeter wave spectrum bands. The Federal Communications Commission
and the European Conference of Postal and Telecommunications
Administrations (CEPT) and certain other countries have authorized this
portion of the spectrum for licensed wireless commercial use.
About GigaBeam Corporation

product ushers in a new era of communications by allowing customers to
bypass the restrictive telecom oligopoly and connect directly to any city’s
fiber optics hub or Point-of-Presence (POP). The disruptive impact of an
easily deployable, low cost alternative to fiber optics cables is
difficult to overestimate, especially since WiFiber’s
point-to-point high-speed units transmit data via the highest approved
radio frequency at speeds equal to 647 T1 lines or 1,000 DSL lines.
Current GigaBeam partners, customers, and end users include Google,
Sprint, The Department of Defense, as well as several cities and
universities such as San Francisco and Boston University. The Company
has implemented strategy to expand into major metropolitan areas around
the world.
