Wireless Transport Solutions using Microwave
NEC is the leading global provider of point-to-point microwave solutions and has been delivering Wireless Transport solutions for over 30 years that enable safe, secure, reliable and versatile networks that provide the underlying fabric of our new digital world.
As mobile services evolve beyond Long Term Evolution (LTE), it is paramount to provide solutions that realise high capacity, effortless connectivity, and ease of maintenance to all customers equally and affordably, with the flexibility to adapt to their diverse needs and requirements.
NEC’s microwave transport solutions offer unmatched reliability that are field proven over the years. Together with advances in radio technology and leading software-defined networking (SDN) expertise, NEC provides highly dependable and intelligent converged solutions that satisfy current and future mobile requirements.
With over 3 million iPasolink terminals shipped to date that are 100% made in Japan, NEC offers unparalleled quality and reliability to deliver connectivity in mission-critical networks.
Who uses NEC Transport Solutions?
NEC’s Microwave solutions are used extensively in any situation where communication is required between two points that have a clear line of sight (LOS). They are used for critical voice applications, mixed voice and data and pure data applications. Microwave links are quick and easy to deploy and offer a very convenient way to establish connectivity quickly and reliably where fibre is not cost-effective, not possible, or as fibre redundancy.
Microwave solutions are used widely across the following sectors:
