CommAgility Partners to Present Wireless OEMs an Ideal Development Platform
BARCELONA, Spain, February 15 - PT (Nasdaq: PTIX), a leading global provider of advanced network
communications solutions, today announced the introduction of the AMP5072 1U
MicroTCA(R) Application-Ready System. The AMP5072 is specifically designed
for LTE and WiMAX equipment manufacturers, and features Serial RapidIO(R)
fabric with System Timing Module for wireless base station synchronization.
These systems integrate all the hardware components, Operating System, and
software protocols, and are ideal for wireless application development.
PT is the leader in Application-Ready Systems consisting of tightly
integrated hardware and software. The company's comprehensive solutions
provide every key component except the application itself. In fact, no other
vendor provides its own Carrier Grade Linux(R) (NexusWare(R)) with wireless
protocols and software, integrated in a rugged, standards-based platform. The
solution has already been chosen by Harris-Stratex, now known as Aviat, who
use the IPnexus(R) Application-Ready Systems in a WiMAX ASN Gateway
application.
PT's cost-effective, high performance, small footprint, 1U MicroTCA
platforms are highly tuned for wireless applications such as LTE eNodeB and
EPC solutions, as well as WiMAX base station and ASN/CSN solutions. "LTE and
WiMAX Base stations are expected to grow profoundly in number over the next
few years," said Edward Young, Managing Director at CommAgility. "The
CommAgility Digital Baseband AMCs, integrated with PT's Application-Ready
Systems, provide a top performance, highly flexible and cost effective
platform that allows equipment manufacturers to rapidly deliver solutions to
market."
John Grana, PT's Senior Vice President of Product and Technology
commented, "At PT, we've always prided ourselves on anticipating market
requirements and providing our customers what they need to meet those
demands. In essence, we must stay not one, but two steps ahead in our
technology innovations. We are gratified to see such immediate acceptance of
our LTE and WiMAX Application-Ready Systems."
