Tarana and Winncom Technologies recently expanded the reach of Tarana’s Gigabit 1 (G1) platform across six continents, a press release reported.
“We really look forward to offering Tarana products to our global customer base in 2023 and beyond. The G1 platform delivers remarkable capacity and is a great fit for our customers working with CBRS deployments in North America,” Igor Kurochkin, VP of global vendor management and marketing at Winncom, said. “It’s also a great fiber alternative in many countries throughout the CALA and EMEA regions. Winncom's engineering and training capabilities will surely enhance the Tarana offering across the globe as we work together to close the world's digital divide and provide our customers and their end users with the fastest and most cost-competitive services available.”
Since launching in October 2021, G1 now serves more than 200 internet service providers across the globe. The new product is intended to improve internet speeds and scalability.
“The end-to-end broadband access platform was engineered from the ground up for wireless ISPs (WISPs) and has redefined what is possible in fixed wireless. With its unique strengths in canceling both intra- and inter-network interference, as well as achieving high-capacity, stable connections despite obstacles in non-line-of-sight (NLoS) conditions, G1 is allowing WISPs to expand their businesses to both close the digital divide in un- and underserved areas as well as to bring healthy competition to markets with entrenched incumbent operators,” the press release stated.
Established in 1996, Winncom specializes in broadband access system distribution, network design and engineering, and network management systems. The company serves a catalog of ISPs, Tier 2 and 3 carriers, value-added resellers, installers and integrators across 90 countries.
“We see tremendous promise in our Winncom partnership,” Dirk Gates, Tarana’s president, said. “Their global reach, extensive experience in broadband technology distribution and related service offerings will provide great fuel for accelerating G1 adoption worldwide. Together we will bring unprecedented connectivity to a broader range of communities, at a fraction of the time and cost of alternative broadband deployment models.”
