PureWave Quantum 1000 Base Station: The Road to WiMAX Profitability
With the performance of an Macro Base Station, in a small form factor, the PureWave Quantum Base Station is poised to redefine carrier economics. Based on the PureMax Smart Antenna Technology, the Mobile WiMAX PureWave Quantum 1000 Base Station uses up to 4 antennas to greatly improve receive sensitivity, range and capacity.

The unit is also simple to deploy virtually anywhere; on utility poles, walls, rooftops, cell towers, without the need for expensive remote RF heads. It can also operate in conjunction with an ASN-GW or in a stand-alone configuration, with no ASN-GW. This ability makes even small WiMAX deployments profitable.

PureWave Quantum Base Stations operate as part of an open, standards-based eco-system that allows customers to choose best-of-breed components from CPEs to ASN-GW. With its software defined radio (SDR) architecture, over-the-air network software upgrades are easy and convenient, ensuring long-term investment protection.

WiMAX applications
Meeting the growing needs of Public Safety
For first responders such as the police, fire and health workers, wireless broadband is an effective way add more bandwidth to municipal wireless networks and meet growing communication needs on a daily basis, as well as providing critical services during national or natural emergencies.

Serving hard to reach communities

In rural, hard to reach areas, or where the terrain makes physical, wire-line deployment virtually impossible, outdoor PureWave Networks’ Mobile WiMAX Base Stations are an ideal solution. Easy to deploy PureWave Quantum Base Stations are quick and cost effective for delivering wireless broadband access in remote locations.

As part of the US economic stimulus package of 2009, funding is available for rural development through the USDA Rural Utility Service (RUS) and the National Telecommunications and Information Administration (NTIA). Funding for programs within the US has been increased by over 7 billion dollars for projects using wireless broadband equipment.

Enabling public agency co-ordination
Government and military agencies often need to coordinate efforts among various organizations such as law enforcement, traffic control, public health, armed forces and security. PureWave Networks’ unique hardware and software management solutions can create the mobile wireless broadband networks needed for on-demand communications.

Setting up surveillance in problem locations
PureWave Quantum Base Stations open up new possibilities for installing video surveillance in locations previously unreachable, improving public and personal safety that was not possible without sophisticated WiMAX technology or mobile WiMAX networks.
