Positron Lands Euro Backhaul Deal

NEWPORT BEACH, Calif. -- Positron Access, maker of ultra high bandwidth for mobile backhaul and Ethernet business services, announces the large scale deployment of cell site backhaul with speeds reaching up to 100 Mbps for a large Tier 1 European carrier. This deployment within an advanced 3G network comes after successful completion of a six month 30-site pilot project. It is the first live deployment of Ethernet over copper for mobile backhaul that shatters the 50 Mbps barrier and raises the bar to 100 Mbps.

"We have worked closely with our customer and our strategic partners to integrate the Aktino solution into the carrier's multi-vendor wireless network," says Claude Brisson, COO of Positron. "We are extremely pleased to be part of such a large scale roll-out of next generation high speed wireless services for an innovative client."

Delivering 100 Mbps carrier Ethernet services to cell sites is critical to the deployment of 3G/4G wireless networks. Using Positron's Aktino bonded copper solutions, service providers can quickly deliver up to 100 Mbps to cell sites over the existing copper infrastructure and avoid the high cost and long schedules of deploying fiber facilities. Based on patented MIMO-over-DMT technology, Positron's Aktino solution not only provides the highest bandwidth over the longest distances on existing copper facilities but also delivers fiber-like reliability to meet the demanding requirements of wireless service providers and their customer's insatiable hunger for bandwidth.
