Alpha Omega Wireless Becomes Premier Partner with Firetide


August 21, 2010, Sacramento, CA - Alpha Omega Wireless, Inc.

Alpha Omega Wireless, Inc. announces it will be expanding its product and solutions offerings by partnering with Firetide, Inc. a world leader in wireless mesh product solutions. AO Wireless will become a Premier Partner with a high level of commitment to the partnership. Firetide Premier Business Partners have in-depth outdoor wireless backhaul knowledge, market expertise, and the ability to provide full customer support. 

Firetide Premier PartnerPresident Joe Wargo says, "We are excited to expand our offerings in the wireless mesh network solutions by partnering with Firetide. We have a long history of providing effective and reliable wireless backhaul networks for video backhaul. Firetide is an industry leader in manufacturing wireless Ethernet bridge and wireless mesh radio systems that excel in wireless backhaul of video. Over the years they have perfected their wireless mesh protocol for the efficiency of data and video over wireless backhaul.

Firetide has developed their wireless mesh radio platforms to not only provide low latency, high throughput data backhaul, but have also have focused the unique characteristics of transmitting video over wireless bridges. Many wireless Ethernet bridges, whether point to point, point to multipoint, or wireless mesh, have not been successful in passing video due to the IP video cameras operating in multicast. Firetide has developed a unique method of passing video traffic and has focused a lot of research and development in providing a highly reliable system.”

Alpha Omega Wireless Opening New Office In Austin Texas


May 30, 2010, Sacramento, CA - Alpha Omega Wireless, Inc.

Alpha Omega Wireless, Inc. announces it will be expanding its operations in Texas. Currently, Alpha Omega Wireless operates out of its headquarters in Sacramento, CA and provides a service coverage area of the state of California and Nevada. By the end of June 2010 Alpha Omega Wireless will be operational in Texas and will have an office based in Austin. 

President Joe Wargo says, "We are excited to expand our operations of providing outdoor wireless backhaul solutions in the state of Texas. We have chosen to base our office of operations in Austin. Our primary focus will be to service the southern part of Texas. Austin is a great area for technology companies like ours and will allow us to service the Austin, San Antonio, Houston metro areas and areas in between.

Texas makes great sense for our  company to expand to. We have been asked by many of our manufacturing partners to provide wireless installation and support services in this area. Texas has a huge demand for wireless backhaul like point to point wireless, point to multipoint wireless Ethernet bridges, and wireless mesh. There are a lot of two-way radio and SCADA integrators in the area but not any companies that offer the full outdoor wireless integration for broadband wireless networks like offered by AO Wireless."

Alpha Omega Wireless now supports the SAF Phoenix TDM and IP System


May 5, 2010, Sacramento, CA - Alpha Omega Wireless, Inc. (http://www.aowirleless.com) announces that it is now carrying the new SAF Tehnika' CFIP Phoenix, a TDM and IP split mount, point to point wireless backhaul radio system. The CFIP Phoenix is a licensed microwave link that also can be deployed as an unlicensed wireless bridge in the 24GHz frequency band.

SAF CFIP Phoenix

The CFIP Phoenix is a high capacity point to point wireless backhaul radio system that provides up to 366Mbps full duplex (720Mbps aggregate throughput) of Ethernet IP connectivity and up to 20 T1/E1 TDM channels. The spit mount wireless backhaul system includes an industrial grade fanless design that increases reliability and enables low power consumption. SAF's ACM (Adaptive Coding and Modulation) and ATPC (Automatic Transmit Power Control) provides for high availability and high density deployments. The microwave link can have up to 4093 concurrent VLAN traffic that allows building many port-to-port networks paths for specific client services. It also supports Jumbo frame size supports 9728 bytes, which allows using longer header info (VLAN, MPLS) and transmitting more useful content and less headers, thus gaining on total throughput.

President Joe Wargo says, "The CFIP Phoenix allows for an easy transition from previous legacy TDM licensed microwave links. Clients can now make the switch to IP wireless backhaul while maintaining their legacy TDM traffic. The wireless bridge system can also be configured in a 1+1 to provide complete failover redundancy and can be trunked together at the IDU (Indoor Unit), which has 4 gigabit Ethernet ports, to provide double capacity. We have many clients in the government and utility space that still use TDM circuits and need IP as well. The CFIP Phoenix provide the best of both in one licensed microwave link.

The SAF CFIP Phoenix allows us to perform a wireless installation of 100Mbps full duplex and can software upgrade the radios up to 360Mbps full duplex (720Mbps aggregate throughput) protecting the clients CPEX investment."

Alpha Omega Wireless Presents Green Wireless to School District


April 15, 2010 - Alpha Omega Wireless, Inc. (http://www.aowireless.com) an Outdoor Wireless Integrator presented at Manteca Unified School District's, located in Manteca CA, "Planet Green Party." Manteca Unified School District ("MUSD") holds an annual event in celebration of Earth Day to have vendors come and demonstrate how various industries are becoming more environmentally friendly.

Solar powered  wireless

Alpha Omega Wireless ("AO Wireless") was asked to present to 2000 students on how wireless backhaul, point to point wireless bridge, technology can be considered a green technology. AO Wireless gave a presentation on the environmental impact differences between deploying other backhaul technologies, such as: copper and fiber, compared with doing a wireless installation of a microwave link using a point to point Ethernet bridge (see "Going Green with Solar Powered Wireless Backhaul" article at http://www.aowireless.com/blog/bid/38356/Going-Green-with-Solar-Powered-Wireless-Backhaul).

AO Wireless also demonstrated the low power consumption of using wireless backhaul and how wireless Ethernet bridge technology is environmentally safe (see "Is Wireless Safe? - The 5 Misconceptions - Part 4" at http://www.aowireless.com/blog/bid/35855/Is-Wireless-Safe-The-5-Misconceptions-Part-4).

The students had fun interacting by putting on tower safety climbing gear and being able to see and touch licensed microwave radios and antennas that they normally only see on towers in the distance.

Alpha Omega Wireless Focuses on 24GHz Point to Point Wireless


April 12, 2010, Sacramento, CA - Alpha Omega Wireless, Inc. (http://www.aowirleless.com) announces its focus on utilizing the FCC's unlicensed wireless 24GHz frequency band for point to point wireless Ethernet bridge solutions. AO Wireless has chosen SAF Tehnika, an Eastern European manufacturer of point to point licensed microwave wireless radio systems, to resell and perform wireless installations in the United States.

President Joe Wargo says, "The 24GHz wireless spectrum band is an unlicensed frequency that is heavily underutilized in the United States. Like licensed microwave, a point to point wireless Ethernet bridge in the 24GHz unlicensed wireless band provides carrier grade wireless backhaul.The 24GHz wireless backhaul is ideal for point to point wireless bridges up to 2+ miles. With the SAF Tehnika CFIP Lumnia we can provide up to 360Mbps Full Duplex (720Mbps aggregate throughput) in areas where there is a lot of wireless interference. The unlicensed wireless 5.8GHz band is becoming heavily saturated and it's becoming difficult to deploy wireless Ethernet bridge links in many areas. Because the 24GHz band is unlicensed we can deploy wireless backhaul links in a day with out the need to wait for a FCC license.

There are many applications that need 100Mbps full duplex connectivity or greater. We also use millimeterwave 60GHz gigabit wireless radios for shorter applications, but not ever client needs gigabit wireless connections. The SAF Lumina allows us to perform a wireless installation of 100Mbps full duplex and can software upgrade the radios up to 360Mbps full duplex (720Mbps aggregate throughput) protecting the clients CAPEX investment."
