Motorola today announced it has added the PMP 320 wireless broadband access network solution to its point-to-multipoint (PMP) line.

The fixed licensed outdoor access solution (pdf) is based on 802.16e standards, and can be co-located with existing Motorola networks.

Optimized for fixed, outdoor applications, it features all-outdoor integrated radios and standards-based servers, so it does not require specialized gateways, routers or servers. Operating in three different frequency ranges: 3.3-3.4 GHz, 3.4-3.6 GHz and 3.6-3.8 GHz, it is interoperable with WiMAX 802.16e CPEs, and uses standard AAA/ RADIUS servers for authentication.

With 2×2 MIMO and matrix B functionality, 10 MHz channels, and 802.16e coding/error correction, Motorola says the PMP 320 delivers high throughput with excellent coverage. Motorola claims the PMP 320 serves up to 200 subscribers per sector with a typical aggregate bandwidth of up to 45 Mbps (10 MHz channel) and even higher throughput with MIMO. That means a typical four-sector tower can provide a maximum capacity of up to 180 Mbps across up to 800 subscribers.

In other news, DragonWave’s Horizon Compact backhaul radio, that operates in licensed or unlicensed spectrum from 6 to 38 GHz, recently received Metro Ethernet Forum certification. Their single integrated unit eliminates rack congestion and features an 800 Mbps capacity. Their Horizon Duo ranges from $12,000 to $30,000 per wireless link.

Proxim’s Tsunami 8100, introduced in mid-July, has achieved significant traction in the market for both wireless backhaul and point-to-multipoint, says the company. Sales of the line are expected to exceed $1 million in Q409.

The Tsunami 8100 can economically provide over 200 Mbps real-world performance and Non-Line-of-Sight (NLOS) operation with MIMO and OFDM which has made it a hit with WISPs, municipalities and schools. The pricing for the QB-8150 point-to-point products starts at $2,499 with prices for the MP-8100 point-to-multipoint line starting at just $999. Proxim claims better price/performance ratios than competing products.

Infonetics Research says the worldwide WiMAX equipment and device market topped $290 million in 3Q09, up 11% sequentially.

Motorola more than doubled its worldwide WiMAX revenue market share, taking the lead from Alvarion in 3Q09, with Huawei and Proxim also having a strong quarter.

The EMEA region–led by Russia, the Middle East, and Africa–and Asia Pacific are the hotbeds of WiMAX activity, although 3G licensing delays in India are slowing development. Infonetics forecasts the WiMAX equipment and devices market to hit $4.97 billion in 2013, with the number of WiMAX subscribers expected to hit 3.9 million worldwide in 2009.
