ELVA-1 Receives Additional Certificates of Conformity For Its 71-76 GHz / 81-86 GHz and 92-95 GHz Radio Links

St. Petersburg, Russia (PRWEB) April 7, 2008 -- ELVA-1 Millimeter Wave Division continues to expand its presence in broadband markets throughout the world. The Russian certification makes ELVA-1 the first manufacturer to offer certified 71-76 GHz/81-86 GHz and 92-95 GHz gigabit wireless links to customers in the Russian Federation, and positions them to become a major participant in the large and rapidly-developing Russian wireless communications market.

The process of Russian certification was detailed and lengthy. ELVA-1 had to first obtain development and manufacturing permits, then assist in creating new Russian equipment regulations for these high frequency, high data capacity radio bands. For certification, their equipment was finally subjected to stringent performance testing. ELVA-1 now has all necessary certifications for worldwide acceptance by government technical agencies: American (FCC), European (ECC) and Russian (MITC) for their PPC-1000, PPC-80/70 and PPC95/92 radio links, providing point-to-point wireless connectivity at 100 Mbps Fast Ethernet, 155 Mbps STM-1 and 1250 Mbps Gigabit Ethernet capacities.

ELVA-1 Radio Links have become very popular among Internet providers in many countries. Recently, the company's PPC-1000 Gigabit Ethernet mm-wave links were successfully implemented for Internet service in Hungary, Czech Republic, Poland and Latvia. More purchase orders from other European countries are currently being filled. In addition, ELVA-1 is the only manufacturer in the broadband market to offer multi gigabit-per-second, 40.5-43.5 GHz radio links.

ELVA-1 gigabit radio links give nothing away to terrestrial fiber in speed and reliability of deployment. With a cost that is far below the average for outdoor fiber installation and service, gigabit capacity radio links are much more cost-effective. Their fiber-class data rate, ease of installation and affordable cost make ELVA-1 high-capacity millimeter-wave radio links ideal solutions for WiFi or mobile network backhaul links, business WAN or IP telephony gateway connections, metropolitan area networks and rapid-deployment emergency communications.

To attract the attention of European customers to our outstanding new equipment, ELVA-1 announces a special "E-band GigE Radio Link" promotion. During this promotion, the list-price for PPC-1000-E Gigabit Ethernet links with 60 cm antennas is reduced to as low as 23,900 Euros. Moreover, if a customer will allow us to publish information about his PPC-1000-E testing and usage, we will provide the first link at just half price! During this promotion, PPC-1000-E Gigabit Ethernet links will be available through several EU value-added resellers who are responsible for local ELVA-1 sales, support and customer order placement.
