RADWIN Chosen by Iberbanda to Expand Network Coverage

Backhaul provider RADWIN has been selected by Spanish wireless service provider Iberbanda, to provide its sub-GHz backhaul system.

In the deal, Iberbanda has deployed the RADWIN 2000 point-to-point 5.x GHz systems to drive high-capacity access services with guaranteed quality of service to corporate clients in underserved parts of Spain. The first phase of network rollout is underway in Galicia and Navarra.

The RADWIN 2000 sub-6 GHz solutions deliver up to 200 Mbps at ranges of up to 120 Km/75 miles. The radios incorporate advanced technologies such as OFDM and MIMO as well as a unique air interface, enabling superior performance in challenging environments including non-line-of-sight paths, severe weather and interference zones.

Ricardo Gómez Villagrán, CEO of Iberbanda stated: “We evaluated a number of vendors and chose RADWIN after it won the RFP and successfully passed our testing and homologation process. RADWIN 2000 links deliver unparalleled performance and high-capacity. They allow us to fulfill our mission of providing corporations located outside the main communications hubs with the high-speed broadband services that they deserve.”

Sharon Sher, RADWIN’s President and CEO, stated: “Being selected by Iberbanda is proof of the unmatched performance our solutions provide as well as the fast return of investment they ensure for our service provider customers. We are pleased to support Iberbanda’s commitment to provide high-speed broadband services throughout the country to bridge the digital divide. Our solutions enable service providers and ISPs to extend their network footprint to remote and rural areas and serve a large customer base – rapidly and more cost-effectively than any other wireline or wireless alternative.”
