Nortel Products

Nortel’s WiMAX 802.16e solution will enable a new generation of Internet-savvy consumers to take their broadband connection with them as they go about their day, making the laptop of tomorrow as connected and mobile as the cellular phone of today. WiMAX also extends the mobile broadband access to a variety of consumer devices – USB devices, Home gateway/Router, PDAs, Smartphones, PCMCIA, Compact Flash Cards, MP3 players and many more to come.

From an operator's perspective, WiMAX brings unprecedented spectral efficiency, conserving and extending scarce radio resources to the benefit of regulators and licensees. WiMAX utilizes Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing (OFDM), the most efficient technology available for wireless access and the key enabler of all future wireless systems including 4G and WLAN. WiMAX is the first 4G Mobile Broadband Access technology to go commercial. With the addition of Nortel’s patented Multiple Input Multiple Output (MIMO) antenna technology, upon which the IEEE 802.16-2005 standard is based, WiMAX provides an order of magnitude improvement in performance enabling connectivity for a number of devices for every subscriber while reducing cost – as little as 1/10 the cost-per-bit of 3G technologies.
