Carriers, Service Providers And Other WiMAX Equipment
Manufacturers Worldwide
Tel Aviv, Israel and Taiwan, 8 January, 2007 -
Alvarion Ltd. (NASDAQ: ALVR), the world’s leading
provider of wireless broadband and WiMAX solutions, and
Accton Technology Corporation (TAIEX: 2345), the Asian
provider of networking and communications equipment, today
announced that together they have formed Accton Wireless
Broadband (AWB) - a new company based in Taiwan - to
develop mass market WiMAX consumer electronic devices in
order to complement Alvarion’s WiMAX offerings while
facilitating the transition of WiMAX and Personal
Broadband services to worldwide availability.
AWB (www.awbnetworks.com) will be an innovative,
fast-moving organization designing and developing high
volume customer premises equipments (CPEs) and other end
user devices based on the 802.16e-2005 WiMAX
specifications, or what is commonly referred to as mobile
WiMAX. AWB will sell its devices to Alvarion to be part of
its Open WiMAX solution 4Motion which uses Best of Breed
systems, as well as other broadband wireless systems and
solutions to be delivered as part of their offerings to
carriers, service providers, and end-users worldwide.
Mass market consumer devices connecting to Open WiMAX™
networks will be the standard technology for business and
personal users to access media centric Personal Broadband
telecommunications services including voice, video, and
data offerings. This cooperation augments Alvarion’s
4Motion™ Open WiMAX solution to include a wide variety of
industry-standard, WiMAX enabled devices and
customer-premise equipment while significantly enhancing
the number and types of self-installable and outdoor WiMAX
CPEs.
“This is a great opportunity to partner with one of the
biggest broadband wireless companies in the world,” said
A.J. Huang, CEO of Accton Group. “The combination of
Alvarion’s market leading core technology and long
deployment history with Accton’s research and development
capabilities in wireless OEM products will greatly
accelerate the introduction of next generation wireless
broadband consumer products with advanced features. We are
extremely pleased to have the opportunity to work with
Alvarion in creating AWB, and in driving it to being a
leading company in WiMAX end user devices.”
With the formation of AWB, Accton is leveraging its IP
networking and communications equipment experience,
high-volume, cost-effective manufacturing, and vast
working knowledge of using strategic partnerships to
design, develop and manufacture innovative, leading-edge
products. Alvarion is contributing its experience from
helping to lead the development of the WiMAX specification
and the development of its own WiMAX products from the
beginnings of the industry, in addition to its current
position as the world’s leading vendor of WiMAX
equipment. Initially, AWB will concentrate on the
production of PCMCIA cards, indoor self-installable, and
outdoor Residential Gateways with an expected release date
in Q2 of 2007.
“Alvarion’s core WiMAX expertise, experience and strong
sales channels combined with Accton’s experience in
consumer electronics, innovation, and creativity will
propel AWB to becoming a world-class supplier of WiMAX
devices and CPEs,” said Tzvika Friedman, chief executive
officer of Alvarion. “In addition, AWB allows Alvarion to
economically expand its leadership in WiMAX CPEs as it
transitions to a mass market, offering a wider variety of
innovative end user devices to our customers. It is a
strategic element of our 4Motion Open WiMAX solution, as
we continue to focus on building all the element of the
4Motion solution. ”
According to a recent Maravedis market research, the WiMAX
and proprietary CPE equipment market will reach an annual
US$3.7 billion in 2012, rising from US$490 million in
2006.
A catalyst for this venture is M-Taiwan, a government
initiative to create a mobile 'Ubiquitous Network'
and provide e-services throughout Taiwan. "The
establishment of this promising AWB joint venture is an
important industry endorsement of the M-Taiwan
initiative," said Ho Mei-Yueh, Minister without portfolio,
Taiwan Executive Yuan. "The winning combination of
Alvarion, the worldwide WiMAX leader, and Accton, a
leading IP device vendor in Asia, is strategic for the
WiMAX industry in creating strong synergies to advance the
creation of a worldwide WiMAX ecosystem while being
something that benefits Taiwan overall.”
