Alliance Systems Introduces WiMAX ATCA and MicroTCA Solutions.


PLANO, Texas Plano (IPA: /ˈpleɪnoʊ/) is a wealthy suburb of Dallas, Texas, located to the north, mainly within Collin County, but also extending into Denton County. According to the 2000 U.S.  -- Alliance Systems, Ltd. introduces new turn-key solutions for the wireless communications wireless communications

System using radio-frequency, infrared, microwave, or other types of electromagnetic or acoustic waves in place of wires, cables, or fibre optics to transmit signals or data.
 market using Worldwide Interoperability for Microwave Access (WiMAX), Advanced Telecom Computing Architecture (ATCA See AdvancedTCA. ), and MicroTCA standards. Alliance Systems' newly designed fully-integrated WiMAX solutions enable application vendors, OEMs (Original Equipment Manufacturers), and TEMs (Telecommunications Equipment Manufacturers) to quickly go to market with carrier-class WiMAX solutions based on open-standards ATCA and MicroTCA architecture.

Service providers, OEMs, and TEMs can deploy WiMAX applications by utilizing the Intel NetStructure([R]) WiMAX Baseband Card. The Intel([R]) building block is a standards-based solution with an Application Programming Interface (API) that allows for quicker and more efficient development. Customers can also minimize system integration and development costs by leveraging Alliance's fully-integrated WiMAX solutions. And Alliance's WiMAX solutions enable customers to upgrade to mobile wireless capability in 2007 while maintaining the same hardware.

With the Intel NetStructure WiMAX Baseband Card, Alliance's WiMAX solution enables customers to focus purely on application development eAE programming directly to API and eliminating any component-level programming. Many developers would spend months and years developing the hardware and software that is already available today from Alliance Systems.

Alliance Systems WiMAX base stations consist of platforms that range from 1U or 3U MicroTCA to fully-redundant 5U to 14U ATCA systems, offering high-density broadband subscriber support. To build out these fully-integrated WiMAX ATCA and MicroTCA solutions, Alliance Systems base stations include the Intel NetStructure WiMAX Baseband Card, along with single board computers (SBCs) and Chassis Management Modules (CMMs) from Intel, integrated software Separate software components or applications that have been combined into one package. See integrated software package.  and best-of-breed hardware and software technologies including real-time carrier-class operating system operating system (OS)

Software that controls the operation of a computer, directs the input and output of data, keeps track of files, and controls the processing of computer programs.
, in-memory database A database that keeps all active records in main memory rather than on disk. Accessing in-memory records is considerably faster than retrieving them from the disk. , and middleware failover software. Open Base Station Architecture Initiative (OBSAI) compliant and certified to interoperate with Intel([R]) PRO/Wireless 5116 broadband interface, Alliance WiMAX solutions are the best choice for immediate wireless broadband High-speed wireless transmission of data. What is "high" speed is always a changing number. Wireless systems are typically slower than land-based, wireline networks. In the past, wireless broadband started at 250 Kbps, whereas land-based broadband was generally considered to start at T1  operation.

Systems can be developed for full redundancy or for best value, depending on the service provider's wireless topology. ATCA hardware can be configured for high availability Also called "RAS" (reliability, availability, serviceability) or "fault resilient," it refers to a multiprocessing system that can quickly recover from a failure. There may be a minute or two of downtime while one system switches over to another, but processing will continue. , whereas MicroTCA hardware can be minimally configured for best value WiMAX solution. Depending on the customer's need, Alliance Systems has the right solution.
