Airspan Networks and Proximetry, a leader management solutions for wireless networks, today announced that they are collaborating to enable services for public safety and transportation users.
The two companies are working together to extend Airspan’s 5.4 GHz and 5.8 GHz MicroMAX with Wi-Fi and Proximetry’s AirSync software to deliver guaranteed QoS over multifrequency, multiprotocol wireless networks.
“The result is that traffic can be mixed over WiMAX and off the shelf Wi-Fi systems, while maintaining QoS and priority for specific applications and users”, said Eric Stonestrom, Airspan’s president and chief executive officer.
Airspan’s MicroMAX is a complete standalone base station that can be used to deploy WiMAX anywhere. Proximetry’s AirSync software constantly optimizes all wireless connections, actively monitoring user priorities and network availability in real time.
The two companies have been working with mutual clients in various stages of lab and field trials for most of the year and anticipate installation of the combined solution in numerous transportation and public safety networks beginning in early 2008.
