PureWave Incorporates Enea Accelerator
Platform in WiMAX Basestations
Stockholm, Sweden, and Santa Clara, California,- January 29, 2009 -
Enea® (Nordic Exchange/Small Cap/ENEA), a world leading provider of
network software and services, today announced that PureWave
Networks, an innovative US-based WiMAX equipment manufacturer, has
purchased Enea® Accelerator 2.0 for their next generation base
stations. The deal was finalized during the fourth quarter of 2008.
"Middleware development is one of the most complex, costly, and
time-consuming aspects of deploying reliable, high-availability
networked systems. Enea's solution provides an off-the-shelf
communications and network management solution that enables us to
focus our development efforts on what makes PureWave's WiMAX
solutions unique, such as advanced beamforming and true spectrum
re-use technology. Using Enea allows us to accelerate the launch of
our next generation carrier grade base station which is scheduled for
later this year," said Dan Picker, CTO, PureWave.
"We're pleased that PureWave has chosen to work strategically with
Enea to accelerate deployment of their advanced WiMAX base station",
said Åsa Landén Ericsson, president and CEO, Enea. "Customers have
increasingly unique requirements for solving industry problems and
company-specific criteria make a one-size-fits-all software solution
impractical. Enea is the one company that can provide custom
solutions, standardized solutions, or any combination in between."
PureWave's goal is to transform the economics of WiMAX and LTE,
through a combination of advanced technology, an innovative product
offering and the most cost-effective products. PureWave is developing
small form-factor WiMAX base stations, which combine the power,
performance and sophisticated features of a traditional macro base
station, with the small footprint and competitive pricing of pico
base stations. The products will leverage advanced beamforming
technology that optimizes spectral efficiency, data throughput and
range. The small form-factor WiMAX base stations are designed for all
outdoor installation, are tower, pole or wall mountable, and require
no indoor shelter.
