Redline and Wavesat Advance with Proven Vendor Interoperability

February 12, 2007

Redline Communications Inc., a leading provider of standards-based WiMAX and broadband wireless infrastructure products, and Wavesat, a leading supplier of WiMAX chipsets, software and reference designs, today announced the companies have completed independent interoperability testing between Redline's WiMAX Forum Certified RedMAX base station and Wavesat’s WiMAX Forum Certified Evolutive CPE design. The independent testing confirms the availability of a wide range of fixed and portable WiMAX end-user devices, including PCMCIA cards, USB devices, desktop and outdoor units to support a wide range of applications such as Voice and Video over IP for carrier networks.

The independent testing also confirms Redline as a WiMAX base station vendor for devices based upon Wavesat's certified 802.16-2004 CPE design. Redline and Wavesat will display their WiMAX products at the 3GSM 2007 event in Barcelona from February 12 to 15, 2007, booth 2.1 C58.

"The WiMAX Forum Certified solutions now available are enabling carriers around the world to establish broadband wireless networks today that deliver the services subscribers want and build a profitable business model for operators," said Monica Paolini, Senza-Fili Consulting. "Vendor interoperability will be a key driver in the continued growth of the WiMAX market, providing more choice and ultimately lower cost devices for both operators and their customers. The increased number of fixed WiMAX products now available gives carriers the ability to deliver more advanced services and generate a rapid return on their WiMAX network investments."

"The successful completion of interoperability testing with Wavesat represents Redline's latest milestone in the advancement of our RedMAX products," said Kevin Suitor, Vice President, Marketing and Business Development, Redline Communications Inc. "We continue to experience strong demand for our fixed WiMAX products, particularly from incumbent and competitive carriers in high-growth markets. We are focused on advancing our current technologies to provide additional benefits to our customers and we expect to remain among the leaders in the development of WiMAX technologies based on emerging standards."

"We are extremely proud to welcome Redline to our growing list of base station vendors who have successfully completed interop testing," says Frank Draper, VP Strategic Development for Wavesat. "We see an increasing number of WiMAX CPEs based on our WiMAX Forum Certified Mini-PCI design. As a market leader, we will continue to focus on enhancing our current product portfolio to bring additional cost reduction, easy upgradeability and design flexibility to our unique architecture".
