Huawei demonstrates innovative WiMAX solutions at WiMAX MEGNA Forum

Dubai, UAE.-Huawei Technologies Co., Ltd. “Huawei”, a leader in providing next-generation telecommunications networks for operators around the world, announced during the WiMAX MEGNA Forum that it is rolling out its new generation WiMAX solution. The new technology is an All-IP solution that can deploy WiMAX with GSM, CDMA, UMTS, HSPA, IMS, NGN and DSL integrated networks, and enables operators to provide its subscribers with advanced high-speed mobile broadband services.

The new WiMAX station applies the innovative technologies of highly-efficient power amplifiers, multi-carrier, distributed architecture and intelligent temperature controls. By adopting this solution, operators are able to save energy, materials, land, and labor, reduce carbon dioxide emissions by over 60%, and reduce at least 30% of the general operation’s expenditure. Thus, environmental protection and economic profits can be achieved simultaneously.

“We have applied our experience in UMTS/HSPA large-scale applications to create a WiMAX solution for operators worldwide,” said Hossam Samy, Huawei’s WiMAX Chief Engineer in MENA. “Our green WiMAX solution is able to provide managed mobile broadband solutions for customers, which enables cost savings and increased system capabilities whilst at the same time protecting the environment”.

“As a leading supplier in the Mobile WiMAX field, Huawei is actively committed to the development of WiMAX products and continues to invest considerable resource to introduce and enhance technologies to help operators overcome today’s obstacles. In fact, we have more than 1200 engineers engaged in WiMAX R&D and to date, Huawei has deployed 13 commercial WiMAX networks based on WiMAX 16e standards and has established over 30 trials worldwide” added Hossam Samy.

At the event, Huawei also arranged an on-site booth in which it showcased its newest WiMAX technology. Visitors to the booth were able to experience a full demonstration of WiMAX and its benefits. The demo includes VOIP, VOD, Video calls and high-speed broadband services.
