Siklu Does Small-Cell Backhaul

PETACH TIKVA, Israel -- Siklu, provider of the EtherHaul millimeter wave wireless backhaul solution, has successfully adapted its advanced all-silicon millimeter wave technology for LTE small cell backhaul operating in the unlicensed 57-66 GHz spectrum.

This technology, which catapulted Siklu to a leading position in the millimeter wave market in 2011, will be leveraged to provide an ultra-low-cost, invisible-footprint backhaul for the expected massive deployment of small cells.

Leveraging its disruptive all-silicon radio technology, Siklu designed and developed the EtherHaul-600, an ultra-small all-outdoor small cell backhaul product that enables rapid deployment anywhere, from street lamps to rooftops. The Siklu solution offers extremely low power consumption and plug-and-play installation into an operator's Self Organizing Network (SON). The integrated all-silicon Siklu approach brings down costs to a fraction of other millimeter wave solutions and will represent a key stepping stone to the mass deployment of small cells.
