CRNT), the #1 wireless backhaul specialist, today announced that its short haul wireless
solution was selected by Vodafone Portugal to support a unique project meant to provide
coverage for Portugal's large scale public events. The Ceragon solution will deliver up to

[http://www.ceragon.com/products-ceragon/packet-hybrid-microwave/fibeair-ip-20-platform/fibeair-ip-20c ]
is the solution of choice that successfully passed all stress tests
performed both in Vodafone's labs and during trials in Vodafone's live network.
"After testing the Ceragon FibeAir IP-20C solution both in the Vodafone labs and live
network, Vodafone Portugal was very impressed by its high capabilities and robustness,"
said Moises Cruz, transmission and core integration manager
[http://www.yatedo.com/s/jobtitle%3A%28Transmission+%26+Core+Integration+Manager%29 ] of
Vodafone Portugal. "Moreover, being an all outdoor platform, we were very pleased with the
simplicity of the installation and commissioning, as it allows Vodafone operations to
reduce set up time and relevant costs."
A revolutionary all outdoor multi-core solution, the IP-20C delivers gigabit capacity
over narrow channels. The Ceragon wireless solutions deliver a number of value added
benefits including: high-capacity over both short and long distances, best
power-consumption per transported bit and robust radio technology for high availability
and reliability. All these factors translate into a lower total cost of ownership (TCO)
for Ceragon customers around the globe.
"We are happy to be selected by Vodafone Portugal and to be able to showcase the
performance of our IP-20 platform in critical real-world conditions via this project,"
said Ira Palti, president and CEO of Ceragon. "Our FibeAir IP-20C solution is the only
system today capable of delivering multi gigabit capacities over a single licensed
frequency channel. As such, FibeAir IP-20C provides the flexibility that mobile carriers
need in order to meet diverse deployment scenarios in both urban and rural settings."
