BridgeWave Expands Partnerships in EMEA with New Distribution Partners

Leading Distributors of Wireless Communications Infrastructure Embrace BridgeWave's Product Portfolio to Support Growing Demand for High-Speed Wireless Networking

Santa Clara, CA, September 16, 2014 --(PR.com)-- BridgeWave Communications, the leading supplier of millimeter wave backhaul solutions, today announced the addition of new distribution partners in Western Europe, Middle East and Africa that will expand the company’s presence in the region and provide local expertise with its products and solutions.

The insatiable demand for bandwidth due to the growth of mobile connectivity globally has put strains on backbone networks. High speed connectivity is revolutionizing business practices from distributed to centralized servers and cloud computing, while the need for higher bandwidth connections to support electronic medical records, video surveillance (CCTV) backhaul, and enterprise connectivity is causing IT departments to look for cost-effective, high-capacity transport that provides the same speed and latency as fiber, but without the associated fiber capital expenditures. BridgeWave's all-outdoor 6 – 38 GHz microwave products support high capacity traffic, while its 60 – 80 GHz millimeter wave solutions yield gigabit and multi-gigabit connections; all while avoiding the complications and costs of leasing or trenching fiber. As more countries continue to adopt millimeter wave frequency bands, BridgeWave has expanded its distribution partnerships to provide high capacity gigabit wireless solutions for enterprise, government, service provider, mobile broadband and fixed networks.

The company's international presence is strengthened with strategic distribution partners in Italy via Allnet. Italia and in Spain via Landatel, while distribution in the United Arab Emirates is through Comtinu and in Nigeria and Northern Africa via Wavetek. These new channels augment existing distribution partners in the United Kingdom (UK Broadband), Germany (SCALCOM), Middle East (MEConnect) and South Africa (Duxbury). The extensive experience in selling and supporting wireless solutions in their local markets, combined with a high caliber of end user support are reasons why BridgeWave selected these local partners.

"These new partners bring a set of strong relationships with network operators and system integrators that complements and expands our market footprint," said Joe Schraml, vice president of solutions marketing at BridgeWave. "Through these new relationships, BridgeWave is poised to address the needs of our customers world-wide for quicker response times, rapid product delivery and local post-sales support. We are thrilled to work with Allnet, Landatel, Wavetek and Comtinu to accelerate our business in these strategic market segments."
