Dell’Oro Market Report Shows BelAir Networks Entering 2008 As Worldwide Wi-Fi Mesh Market Leader

Strong momentum in local government, armed forces, hospitality and industrial markets

Kanata, Ontario.- BelAir Networks, the leading provider of mobile broadband mesh networks, was named the worldwide wireless mesh node market leader based on revenue for the second consecutive quarter, according to Dell’Oro Group’s recently released Q4 2007 Wireless LAN quarterly report. The company, also recognized as the industry leader for both mesh units and radios shipped in Q4, has had consistent quarter over quarter growth since reporting began in Q1 2006.

“The business model of the industry is changing to one in which public safety and public works applications, which have direct and measurable returns, drive metro deployments,” explains Greg Collins, Vice President at Dell’Oro Group. “The highly publicized, public access networks may not be the primary growth driver over the course of the next year; rather, more mundane public safety applications will likely be the main catalyst for this market’s expansion.”

BelAir Networks market share achievements and consistent growth reflect the widespread adoption of the company’s comprehensive mesh networking product portfolio in public safety networks, municipal networks, port and mass transit installations, hotel and venue networks, defense applications, and plant deployments around the world.

“BelAir Networks has always been committed to delivering the industry’s highest performance and most reliable mobile broadband mesh networks,” said Bernard Herscovich, CEO and President of BelAir Networks. “It is very gratifying that the company is now recognized for both our industry-leading technology and, thanks to our customers, our number one market share.”

BelAir Networks is the leading provider of mobile broadband mesh network solutions with more than 400 deployments worldwide in leading cities such as Minneapolis, London and Toronto, high-profile venues such as Lincoln Center in New York, and Dolphin Stadium in Miami and in mission-critical Defense applications including the Space and Naval Warfare Systems Center, Charleston. BelAir Networks high performance products offer the industry’s highest capacity, lowest latency and fastest roaming speeds.
