The new customer's legacy TDM radios are being replaced with DragonWave Harmony Trunk radios in order to provide backhaul scalability needed to support its ongoing LTE deployments. Turning up Harmony Trunk in 500 Mbps and 1 Gbps configurations enables the carrier to deliver increased high capacity data services in its mobile network today, while also establishing a solid foundation to support further expansion of its wireless network. DragonWave is working with local partner Trans Industrias Electronicas S.A. to provide an end-to-end solution that includes engineering, deployment and in-country support. The Harmony Trunk solution was selected for its high capacity, long reach, and all-indoor capabilities that suited the end customer's network environments.

"DragonWave was selected after determining that the Harmony Trunk solution best met the operator's capacity and reach requirements," said Alfredo Eimer, CEO of Trans Industrias Electronicas S.A. Our partnership with DragonWave provides our valued customer with the local services and support they expect from their vendors so that they can continue to provide high-quality, reliable service delivery to its growing customer base."

The DragonWave Harmony Trunk is a hybrid microwave solution that enables operators to migrate from full-TDM, to Hybrid, to full-IP via a simple software configuration, and to transport TDM and IP signals natively over the air without any encapsulation or mapping.

"Harmony Trunk is uniquely suited to support this key customer's capacity requirements for its LTE network deployment," said Peter Allen, CEO, DragonWave. "It's also rewarding to establish yet another direct relationship with a customer previously purchasing equipment through Nokia and Siemens, and is in step with our plans to directly serve our end customers by delivering and supporting next-generation DragonWave products to meet operators' network growth requirements."
