Aviat Networks – a leading expert in wireless transport and access solutions – recently announced it has received orders totaling over $50 million from two separate U.S. State governments for statewide public safety networks. These projects include a mix of high-power microwave radios, high-availability routers, and management software with turnkey services for design, installation, support, and ongoing managed services.
By deploying the highest-power microwave radios in the industry, these customers will be able to utilize smaller antennas to reduce tower-related costs and support more data throughput for advanced services while maintaining the highest link reliability essential for this critical public safety network. And Aviat’s Frequency Assurance Software (FAS) will be incorporated into these statewide network upgrades to protect first responders from potential Wi-Fi 6e interference and Health Assurance Software (HAS) to ensure reliable and robust communications throughout the networks.
Aviat is deployed in more than 50% of all U.S. statewide microwave networks, giving us confidence about future business prospects from government funding sources allocated and distributed through U.S. States, including ARPA (American Rescue Plan Act) and BEAD (Broadband Equity Access and Deployment) programs.
KEY QUOTES:
“It is our honor to support our first responders and we are grateful these U.S. State government agencies put their trust in Aviat. We are committed to providing mission-critical network functionality with highest reliability to deliver the advanced technology and services these customers require.”
— Pete Smith, President and CEO, Aviat Networks
