Siklu's EtherHaul Microwave Backhaul Solution Boosts Network Performance While Reducing Costs by 80%

EtherHaul enables service providers to meet growing bandwidth requirements and migrate to next generation networks

PETAH TIKVA, Israel, February 15, 2010 - Siklu, a pioneer in the mobile wireless backhaul revolution, announced
the launch of its EtherHaul(TM) solution, providing gigabit per second
wireless connectivity at a total cost of ownership that is 80% lower than
comparable solutions. With the flexibility to integrate with 2G, 3G and 4G
Networks, and incorporating capabilities to support future topologies,
EtherHaul enables service providers to meet today's growing traffic demands
and to evolve their network to meet future requirements. In addition, Siklu's
environmentally friendly design results in easier and quicker deployment and
adoption.

"Demand for wireless broadband service on cellular networks is expanding
exponentially, driven by the growing presence of smartphones and other
advanced mobile wireless devices," said Jennifer Pigg, Vice President in
Yankee Group's Anywhere Network research group. "Today the backhaul
represents the most significant bottleneck in the mobile network.
Millimeter-wave solutions can provide the needed capacity and also alleviate
frequency congestion. However, up until now the capital cost of current
solutions has prohibited service providers from mass deployment." Siklu's
carrier grade and cost efficient millimeter-wave backhaul solution helps
mobile carriers economically meet the ever growing demand for bandwidth.

Siklu's EtherHaul solution leverages silicon-based technologies and
millimeter-wave technology advantages to create a solution that is both
uniquely cost effective and significantly enhances network performance. Tier
one operators in Europe and Israel are currently running trials with
EtherHaul.

"EtherHaul has redefined mobile backhaul by revolutionizing every aspect
of system design resulting in lower equipment cost, installation time and
fees, form factor, and ongoing maintenance and operations to achieve this
dramatic reduction in the cost of ownership," said Gaby Junowicz, VP of
Marketing and Business Development at Siklu. "In addition to providing the
lowest price point in the industry, EtherHaul supports today's growing
traffic demands along with the capabilities and flexibility to scale-up to
meet the expanding bandwidth requirements that will result from the migration
to next generation LTE and WiMAX networks and the introduction of new
services."

Siklu's innovative solution has been selected to be a finalist at the
Mobile Innovation Grand Prix Final, which is part of the prestigious Global
Mobile Awards, held at the GSMA's Mobile World Congress in Barcelona in
February 2010.
