The Flex4G-5000 offers operators an alternative to fiber in dense urban areas, and provides public and private network operators with a backhaul system that quickly scales to meet future capacity requirements.
“Minerva has led the expansion of the wireless market throughout the Middle East, and their reputation for offering the best in wireless solutions to their customers is well established,” said Sanjay Nagpal, senior vice president, global sales and marketing, REMEC Broadband Wireless Networks, BridgeWave Communications, and SAGE Satcom. “Their broad network of enterprise and service provider customers, along with their technical expertise and service-oriented approach to business, complements our own business strategy and expands our reach into the Middle East and African markets.”
BridgeWave will soon announce two new products built on custom ASICs.

The first of these is a high capacity licensed microwave system supporting 6-38GHz frequency bands. The next is an 80GHz system, which will deliver 10Gbps capacity for true fiber replacement.
