BelAir Networks Named Wi-Fi Mesh Market Leader for Third Straight Quarter by Dell’Oro Group

Cable Operators, Telcos, and Security Service Providers Drive BelAir’s Continued Success

(Vocus) May 29, 2008 -- BelAir Networks, the leading provider of mobile broadband mesh networks, was named the worldwide wireless mesh node market leader based on revenue for the third consecutive quarter (http://www.belairnetworks.com/about_belair/press_releases_view.cfm?p_id=141) , according to Dell’Oro Group’s recently released Q1 2008 Wireless LAN quarterly report. The company also maintained its leadership position for units shipped in the first quarter of 2008. BelAir Networks (www.belairnetworks.com) is experiencing strong momentum in public safety networks, municipal networks, port security, mass transit and ITS installations, hotel and venue networks, defense applications, and industrial plant deployments around the world.

Consistent with BelAir Networks commitment to delivering carrier-grade technology in a market typically associated with enterprise-grade products, the company’s market-leading status is due, in part, to their unique success with major telecom, cable and security service providers. ADT Security Services, the largest provider of electronic security services, has deployed BelAir Networks wireless mesh nodes to support a video security network throughout the 15 square miles that comprise the Port of Richmond’s perimeter and facilities. They are also currently deploying BelAir nodes for a public safety network in the City of Richmond, CA.

"What we are seeing today is a proliferation of successful networks that are a very different from the original thinking about city-wide Wi-Fi models,” said David Park, VP Product Marketing, BelAir Networks. "Service providers are demanding proven, high-performance, reliable and scalable wireless mesh solutions and this demand represents continued growth opportunities for BelAir Networks."

BelAir Networks is the leading provider of mobile broadband mesh network solutions with more than 450 deployments worldwide, including leading cities such as Minneapolis (http://www.belairnetworks.com/resources/pdfs/Minneapolis_%20BDMD00013-A01.pdf), St. Louis, San Antonio, London, and Toronto (http://www.belairnetworks.com/Toronto/video.cfm) as well as high-profile venues such as Lincoln Center in New York and Dolphin Stadium (http://www.belairnetworks.com/Dolphin_Stadium/video.cfm) and in mission-critical Defense applications including the Space and Naval Warfare Systems Center.
