ADTRAN Expands Wireless Offering With DS3 and Quad T1 Radios.Business Editors & Technology Writers Networld+Interop and COMDEX The former, premier computer trade show in the U.S. Although it grew into an end user event, it was originally created for dealers and distributors (it was the COMputer Dealers EXposition). Atlanta 2002 BOOTH #521 HUNTSVILLE, Ala.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Sept. 10, 2002 TRACER tracer, an identifiable substance used to follow the course of a physical, chemical, or biological process. In chemistry the ideal tracer has the same chemical properties as the molecule it replaces and undergoes the same reactions but can at all times be detectible 4000 Series Radios Deliver Broadband Speeds Using License-free Technology ADTRAN(TM), Inc. (Nasdaq:ADTN ADTN Administrative Data Transmission Network ADTN Administrative Data Telecommunications Network ) today unveiled the latest members of its TRACER(R) Series of fixed wireless products, the TRACER 4305 DS3 radio and the TRACER 4206 Quad T1 radio. The TRACER 4305 is a license-free, compact, point-to-point radio offering 45 Mbps of full-duplex connectivity at a significantly lower cost than competing products. The TRACER 4206 offers up to four T1s of bandwidth for cost-effective high-speed voice, video, or data applications. Both the TRACER 4305 and 4206 eliminate monthly recurring costs and reduce capital expenditures to provide a rapid return on investment. These economical broadband solutions are used by wireless carriers and in corporate networks where rapid deployment and cost savings are essential or where high-bandwidth infrastructure is inadequate or nonexistent non·ex·is·tence n. 1.

The TRACER 4305 and 4206 radios are each housed in a space-saving 1U chassis, which is one-half the size of comparable rackmount solutions, helping to conserve valuable cabinet/rack space. Both radios operate in 5.8 GHz license-free bands eliminating the delays and expenses associated with frequency coordination and licensing, and allowing the fastest possible delivery of high-bandwidth connectivity. Using these high-capacity wireless connectivity solutions, locations that were previously unreachable by copper or fiber networks can now be seamlessly integrated into existing infrastructures. TRACER DS3 and Quad T1 radios offer customers a wealth of advantages in both enterprise and wireless carrier applications. For enterprise users, they alleviate bandwidth congestion The condition of a network when there is not enough bandwidth to support the current traffic load. congestion - When the offered load of a data communication path exceeds the capacity. between remote locations and can be coupled with ADTRAN Integrated Access Devices to provide voice, data, and video connectivity. Service providers also reap benefits by gaining control of their networks and eliminating the need to purchase circuits from other carriers. Additionally, when combined with ADTRAN's Total Access(R) OPTI-3(TM) OC3 Multiplexer, the TRACER 4305 can extend fiber ring services over wireless DS3 at distances up to 15 miles. Likewise, the TRACER 4206 can be coupled with a variety of ADTRAN voice, video, and data products for connectivity at distances up to 30 miles. "The TRACER 4000 Series products have been engineered to minimize interference and achieve carrier-class quality and reliability in a form factor that conserves valuable rack space," said Dan Pritchett, ADTRAN director of wireless products. "They provide the performance required to meet the growing needs of carrier and enterprise applications much more economically than similar transport alternatives." The TRACER 4305 and 4206 are both backed by ADTRAN's industry-leading five-year warranty. The TRACER 4305 has a list price of $10,995 and is currently shipping. The TRACER 4206 has a list price of $7,995 and will be available in October.
