ZTE Receives WiMAX Forum 3.5GHz Wave2 Certification

ZTE Corporation (ZTE), a provider of telecommunications equipment and network solutions, has disclosed that the WiMAX Forum has awarded its 3.5GHz WiMAX 16e System equipment – the ZTE B9100+R9100 base stations, the Wave2 Qualification Certification. As per company claims, ZTE is the first company to have passed the Wave2 Certification for its 3.5GHz WiMAX 16e system.

The WiMAX Forum drives a common global standard for certification of interoperable high performance IP-based broadband wireless equipment supporting stationary, portable and mobile applications. Through this certification, interoperability and mass production is promoted, which in turn will lower the price and ensure a widespread adoption of WiMAX Forum Certified equipment. To achieve official WiMAX certification, the equipment, which includes the base station and the subscriber unit, must demonstrate both conformance and interoperability.

ZTE B9100+R9100 is a distributed base station system developed on MicroTCA hardware platform equipped with technical features such as easy upgrade path, a compact design, and with the lowest total cost of ownership (TCO) in the industry. It supports advanced MIMO (Multiple-Input-Multiple-Output) technology, which enhances signal transmission quality of single base station.
