Bridgewave and BATS Create Industry-First Auto-Tracking High Capacity Wireless System

Bridgewave

rsz_2bats_-_bwSanta Clara, Calif. – September 07, 2010 – BridgeWave Communications (www.bridgewave.com) and Broadband Antenna Tracking Systems (BATS) (www.batswireless.com) today announced the successful integration of BATS’ automatic antenna aiming and tracking technology and BridgeWave’s high-capacity wireless radio systems. BridgeWave is the first company to deliver wireless full-rate gigabit Ethernet systems that provide network connectivity during movement.

Through first-of-its-kind technology, BATS’ auto-tracking system creates search patterns and predictive algorithms that automatically locate a desired connection point, while BridgeWave’s radio systems transport full-rate gigabit data between fixed-to-mobile or mobile-to-mobile locations. This allows for real-time tracking capability on one or both ends of the link. Once the system is deployed, it will automatically locate and lock signal position, providing nearly instantaneous gigabit connectivity.

“BridgeWave is the right partner for integrating our cutting-edge technology into their high-capacity radio systems,” said Phillip Cramer, vice president of sales and marketing of BATS. “This new solution will cut down the number of hours and personnel needed to accurately locate, establish and continuously maintain a wireless high-speed network connection.”

“This collaboration with BATS marks the first available wireless high-capacity systems to provide fiber-like performance for today’s fixed-to-mobile and mobile-to-mobile applications,” said Amir Makleff, president and CEO of BridgeWave. “We’re focused on expanding our product offerings to solve network issues where government, mobile, and private users require high-capacity connections, including applications where establishing communications is challenging.”

The integrated solution allows BridgeWave to expand applications for its high-capacity wireless links to include offshore – ship-to-shore, ship-to-ship, and military communications including, fixed-to-remote applications where communications are established between a command center and remote facility. In mobile-to-mobile applications where one or two ends of a network are in constant movement, the system provides seamless network performance. Where temporary communications is needed, response teams will have the ability to quickly deploy and configure high-speed, high-capacity wireless networks.

First round pick goes to BridgeWave’s AR80 – The preferred choice to backhaul video surveillance traffic

Bridgewave

BridgeWave’s AR80 gigabit wireless solution was selected to provide the network backbone to support video surveillance traffic from the IP-based cameras back to the central command station during Super Bowl XLIV (Feb. 7, 2010) and the 2010 Pro Bowl (on Jan. 31, 2010). BridgeWave teamed up with local and government law enforcement agencies to ensure the highest level of public safety for thousands of sports fans, by providing a backhaul solution which supported the latest high-tech video imaging systems deployed at Sun Life Stadium in Miami, FL.

BridgeWave’s high-capacity solutions are ideally suited for government and military networks, providing highly-secure connectivity with high availability as backup for existing fiber paths or when fiber cannot be deployed. BridgeWave’s low-latency wireless links are a natural choice for backhauling sensitive, high-bandwidth video traffic from various camera locations to monitoring stations in addition to being used for a wide range of municipal and public safety applications.

BridgeWave has extensive experience providing well-suited solutions to support video surveillance applications across the US. For more information, read the following success stories: City of Highland Village (TX), City of Southlake (TX), Dallas Police Dept.
