to spearhead the North American entry of a well-funded, new market
entrant. Founded by several of the wireless telecommunications
industry's top scientists and executives, the company, barely a
year old, has already won awards for innovation by a top
American-based global silicon company. Our technology has already
earned network validation and approval by one of the largest
mobile carriers on the planet. The time is right to introduce
ourselves North American customers, who are hungry for solutions
that will allow them to leverage the emerging LTE future without
blowing up their business models.

I heard someone is launching something better than Telrad on
Monday. We'll see what it is!

I’ll pipe in.
We were/are an early adopter of LTE. I can
tell you that buying into the Telrad system has been a
very good move for us. As of today, almost 450
Subscribers and 30 sectors deployed in 2.3Ghz and
3.65Ghz. We have a total build commitment consisting of
70 sectors and 2 EPC cores on our network. From there…who
knows.
We have been deploying 4 sectors with Back to
Back frequency reuse using 2 eNodeB’s in split mode. Once
we fill it up, we will deploy additional AP’s and continue
to fill…..then once MU-Mimo is running we will double our
subscriber possibility.
Now that we have Breezeview running and ACS,
we have complete visibility into our UE’s and
infrastructure. The piece we need to get integrated is
Powercode and the EPC.
Was the LTE piece sold too early???…YES… Is
it ready for commercial deployment now?….YES. Because of
early adoption, we certainly appreciate the features and
stability of the platform and EPC at this point. Thanks to
other customers that adopted early, like us, many bugs and
issues have been resolved.
Another point to remember is that the
technology has been heavily deployed by National Carriers
in the WiMAX flavour as Alvarion…the hardware is hardened
and works well in extremely cold temperatures and
heat….and lightning resilient because of field
proven/hardened components.
LTE is absolute magic…. Our installers are
loving a working, predictable platform now that we have a
strong understanding of capabilities and I love the fact
that new features are a software upgrade away. We are
filling our schedules with customers that have been
waiting a long time for our deployment. I can tell you we
wasted a lot of money with other platforms/vendors, but I
am very happy with our decision to go with Telrad.
Also, kudos to Telrad. They have been
absolutely terrific on the customer service front too…we
had some very weird issues just before Christmas, they
sent Guy from Israel on boxing day and we spent a week in
the field diagnosing problems and solving them. Most of
the problems were related to outside interference and on
tower interference. This field diagnosing and knowledge
level that Guy has in the product definitely instilled
confidence in the product and sealed my faith in the
decision I made to move forward with them.
Cheers,

We deploy mainly LOS with canopy
450 5ghz. However the telrad equipment has been
amazing at connecting clients that are buried in
trees. I'm extremely satisfied with the performance of
the system...when it works. I added the qualifier of
"when it works" because I feel like we've been a bit
of a beta tester. It's a very new product on the
bleeding edge and it's getting better all the time but
we definetly bled more blood than I would have liked.

It seems as if the telrad discussions have
gone cold, seriously looking at it for a new
deployment but wanted to get some feedback
from current users, Gino? Etc
They have priced me out at about 45k for 4
radios, 4 sectors and the basic EPC. $285 for
the CPE. This is a fortune compared to
anything else, but if you can truly reach many
more customers and load the aps higher it may
pincel out for me...
So what's the word ?
