LITTLE FALLS, New Jersey, May 18, 2016 /PRNewswire/ --

    Ceragon Networks Ltd. (NASDAQ: CRNT [http://www.ceragon.com/investor_relations.asp ]),
the #1 wireless backhaul specialist, today announced that a leading mobile operator in the
Southern Cone of South America is continuing its multi-country, large scale 4G LTE
expansion and modernization project using the IP-20 Platform. Following a successful
rollout in 2015, this longstanding Ceragon customer placed follow-up orders totaling over
$4.9 million, year to date, that began shipping in Q1 2016.

    The South Cone operator utilizes Ceragon's solutions for its wireless backhaul needs

as well as offers the operator the shortest time to market of its 4G services, thereby
maximizing its 4G service revenue potential. The Ceragon solution additionally allows the
operator to enhance its customers' quality of experience via its exceptional high capacity
and proven reliability. With its low footprint solutions, Ceragon enables the operator to
save on site real-estate costs, which optimizes its infrastructure investment, delivers
significant CAPEX and OPEX savings, and ensures long-term scalability with ample site
headroom.

    "We are pleased to receive repeat orders from this longstanding customer as it
confirms our products meet its high performance standards and allows it to achieve the
highest value" said Ira Palti, president and CEO of Ceragon. "Our advanced IP-20 Platform
is not only quick and simple to implement, but delivers ultra-high capacity at minimal

which is exceptional. It is rewarding to contribute to our customers' ongoing expansion
