TEL AVIV, Israel, November 11, 2010 - RADWIN (www.radwin.com), the global provider of Backhaul and
Broadband Wireless Solutions, today announced that it has signed a multi-year
agreement with Wireless Business Solutions (WBS), the holding company of
iBurst. iBurst is South Africa's leading wireless broadband service provider.
Under the terms of the agreement, RADWIN will provide thousands of links to
enable iBurst to build metro Ethernet rings and provide last mile
connectivity to its high-end corporate clients. iBurst has been deploying
RADWIN's solutions in large numbers since 2007.
RADWIN's solutions deliver up to 200 Mbps throughput and operate at

built-in Ring topology that was designed specifically for the ISP market and
saves the need to use switches at the customer's premises.
"We have been deploying RADWIN's links since 2007 and they have exceeded
our expectations in terms of price, performance and reliability," said Sasan
Parvin, CTO of iBurst. "Our valued corporate customers depend on us to
