Motorola Expands wi4 WiMAX Access Point PortfolioSmaller, more powerful, carrier class wi4 WiMAX access point (WAP) 450 provides enhanced coverage and capacity

SINGAPORE, April 8, 2008 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- Motorola Inc. announced today that it is expanding the Motorola wi4 WiMAX access point portfolio with the introduction of the new 802.16e Wave 2-ready WAP 450. The WAP 450 access point uses the recently announced 4G common broadband base control unit. The WAP 450 has a smaller common equipment cabinet and a more powerful tower-top RF module that can improve coverage and capacity by delivering up to 10 watts of power output per sector at the antenna port. The 10 watts of power at the antenna port in WAP 450 is comparable to 20 watts or more power of a traditional ground base station which typically looses half of its power in the RF cables. The new product will be available in the 2.3 GHz, 2.5 GHz and 3.5 GHz frequency bands commonly used by WiMAX operators worldwide.

The WAP 450 is WiMAX Wave 2-ready and incorporates diversity antenna techniques which allow the realization of Multiple-Input, Multiple-Output (MIMO) capability offering greater range performance, improved in building penetration along with full mobility support.

With an ultra light infrastructure, highly integrated design, thin fiber connection that eliminates heavy coaxial cables and operates with very low power consumption, the WAP 450 increases the speed and flexibility of installation, and maintains a simple infrastructure design for operators.

"The WAP 450 also provides performance and cost advantages to operators so they can reduce capital and operating expenditures while extending coverage and enabling more data-rich and bandwidth-intensive applications to satisfy their customers' demands," said Adolfo Masini, vice president, Home & Networks Mobility, Motorola Inc.

Motorola's WAP 450 is a carrier class solution that endures network expansion cycles. As the operator's WiMAX network evolves, the dynamic broadband capabilities continue to give operator a high performance not only during the initial coverage stage but also during the capacity & network expansion stage.

High power WAP 450 comes with dynamic broadband capability that mitigates interference, dynamically changes capacity between cell edge and core as network evolves, and gives flexibility of selectable channel bandwidths. The WAP 450 is scheduled to be available in Q4 2008 in the 2.3 GHz and 2.5 GHz bands and Q1 2009 in the 3.5 GHz frequency band.

Motorola's wi4 WiMAX solutions are designed to support fixed, portable, nomadic and mobile applications. Motorola's Flexible wi4 WiMAX Access Point portfolio can be easily configured to support a wide range of coverage, capacity, and application scenarios utilizing an array of options including tower-top and tower bottom power amplifiers, distributed electronics, MIMO and smart antenna techniques.

Motorola currently has 19 WiMAX 802.16e contracts for deployment of various WiMAX solutions in 18 countries worldwide. For more information about Motorola wi4 WiMAX solutions, please visit: http://www.motorola.com/wimax.

Fitel targets to complete and start testing the WiMAX base stations in the downtown area of Taipei by first half of 2008. The M-Taiwan project is a government initiative to accelerate WiMAX ecosystem development and create a city-wide broadband network to support wireless broadband services to consumers.

Charlie Wu added, "Motorola is a leading provider of WiMAX technology, and we are pleased to work with them in the design, supply and deployment of a high performance, reliable and scalable WiMAX network for advanced applications and future expansion. Working with Motorola has an added benefit in that we also become part of the global WiMAX ecosystem."

AMP Capital Investors met en oeuvre la solution de gestion de données d'Eagle dans la première phase d'un projet de longue durée

BOSTON, April 9 /PRNewswire/ --

- La phase de projet a été exécutée au moment prévu

Eagle Investment Systems LLC, important fournisseur de technologies de services financiers et filiale de The Bank of New York Mellon Corporation, a annoncé aujourd'hui qu'elle avait terminé la première phase d'un projet en collaboration avec AMP Capital Investors qui consiste à mettre en oeuvre la solution de gestion de données d'Eagle dans la plate-forme de gestion des investissements.

AMP Capital Investors est un gestionnaire australien d'investissements spécialisés de premier plan qui comptait plus de 111 milliards de dollars (dollars australiens) en actifs sous gestion au 31 décembre 2007. La société a engagé Eagle dans le but de mettre en oeuvre sa solution de gestion de données visant à centraliser, à nettoyer et à valider ses données d'investissement afin de s'assurer le partage cohérent d'informations au sein des systèmes de gestion des investissements.

<< Lorsque nous avons entrepris ce projet il y a un an, nous avons compris qu'Eagle offrait les ressources et solutions nécessaires pour notre plate-forme >>, a affirmé Henry Capra, directeur financier d'AMP Capital Investors. << Ainsi, nous avons complété la première étape du projet selon notre plan initial. Eagle a fourni des ressources spécifiques dès le tout début, ce qui nous a aidés à assurer une transition en douceur de nos données. >>

<< La solution de gestion de données d'Eagle est une partie essentielle de la plate-forme globale étant donné que les données constituent l'élément rassembleur de ces systèmes >>, a déclaré M. Capra.

<< Nous sommes très heureux de la façon dont la première phase du plan s'est conclue et nous sommes impatients de construire une relation à long terme avec AMP Capital Investors, au fur et à mesure qu'ils continueront à concevoir leurs solutions >>, a mentionné John Lehner, président d'Eagle.

<< Le projet d'AMP Capital Investors revêt une grande importance. Cela n'a pas été une mince affaire d'atteindre cette étape importante >>, a affirmé John Legrand, directeur général des régions EMEA et Asie-Pacifique pour Eagle. << La relation qui s'est développée entre AMP Capital Investors et Eagle tout au long du projet est devenue une alliance solide. Le succès de cette phase est directement attribuable à une équipe de projet ouverte d'esprit et engagée ainsi qu'aux sponsors des deux sociétés. >>
