Public Profile

BridgeWave Communications is the leading supplier of Gigabit Ethernet outdoor wireless connectivity solutions. The company’s exclusive AdaptRate™ technology and Forward Error Correction capabilities deliver the highest availability, at the longest distances, for full-rate GigE solutions. BridgeWave’s point-to-point, fixed wireless solutions are ideally suited for a wide variety of enterprise, service provider, healthcare, education, public safety and government/military network applications. With more than 1,000 gigabit radios deployed worldwide, BridgeWave delivers the highest levels of product quality and reliability. BridgeWave systems consist of wireless transceivers that act as simple media-converters (copper-to-wireless) between standard cable modems (at the subscriber end) and standard CMTS (cable modem termination system) routers at the operator's operation center. Backbone fiber distribution is accomplished using standard cable industry transmission equipment that can cost as little as one-fifth the cost of SONET/ATM equipment. Rather than providing a proprietary networking solution, BridgeWave provides wireless transceivers that are designed to seamlessly integrate with standard networking equipment, providing operators with substantially lower costs and network complexity. BridgeWave Communications produces ultra low cost gigabit speed wireless solutions from design to manufacturing, enabled by BridgeWave developed millimeter-wave (MMW) MEMS technology. BridgeWave solutions utilize high-frequency radio spectrum in the 60-90GHz range, now being allocated by the FCC, enabling multi-gigabit per second wireless connectivity over distances of up to 500-2000 meters
