Proxim's QuickBridge 60250 solution provides a complete "hop in a box" delivering 250 Mbps up to 500 meters in a small form factor for fast installation for short-range, high-bandwidth applications.

"Proxim's GigaLink radios and QuickBridge 60250 links have been used by carriers, ISPs, enterprises and governments to provide high-performance wireless -- up to fiber speeds with the GigaLink -- at a fraction of the cost, and with much greater speed and ease of deployment," said Ralf Labeda, Regional Sales Manager Nordics & Baltics at Proxim Wireless. "With the European Union's ongoing investment and commitment to bringing broadband connectivity to more areas throughout Sweden and other Nordic countries, the GigaLink and QuickBridge 60250 solutions fill a key need for high-performance connectivity without the hassle, time, and cost of pulling fiber."

Proxim Wireless GigaLink Series

Proxim's GigaLink series of point-to-point wireless bridges offer the performance of fiber at a fraction of the cost. Unlike existing solutions, Proxim's GigaLink radios combine full-duplex Gigabit Ethernet performance with latency lower than physical fiber at comparable distances. Key features of Proxim's GigaLink series include:

• High Performance and Reliability -- Third-generation, mature product line -- Capacity of 1.25 Gbps Full Duplex (2.5 Gbps aggregate) at distances up to 2 kilometres per hop at 99.99% availability -- Extremely high link availability up to 99.999% with direct fiber interface
• Extensive Security -- Narrow beam width increases security and enables virtually interference-free operation -- Physical layer interface transports only binary data bits -- Significant frequency re-use at short distances enables the deployment of a larger number of links in a given geographic area without interference
• Reduces Total Cost of Ownership (TCO) -- Compact size and weight designed for outdoor deployments -- Direct network interface at terminal eliminates the need for an IDU -- Custom network planning and link deployment tools
