Andrew Solutions, the CommScope
division, that is a global leader in wireless communications systems
and products, has been named 'In-Building Wireless Vendor of the
Year' in this year's Telecom Asia Readers' Choice Awards. The
award was given, based on nominations from a panel of more than 60
wireless industry analysts, consultants and service providers, as
part of an annual event recognizing the innovations and contributions
to the industry of the top telecom vendors operating in Asia Pacific.
“Building off of its years of
after-market indoor wireless solutions expertise, Andrew Solutions
upped its game this year by helping CommScope launch its Wired for
Wireless solution, which targets the indoor coverage issue during the
construction phase of the building,” said John Tanner, Global
Technology Editor, Telecom Asia. He further added, “By helping
customers plot out indoor coverage, as part of the building's
design, Wired for Wireless not only promises more cost-efficient
wireless coverage, but also a wireless infrastructure designed to
ensure optimal coverage regardless of the outside network's
technology evolution.”
The Wired for Wireless solution
provides owners and developers of new buildings and campuses with the
necessary infrastructure, in advance, to eliminate weak or blocked
signal areas from the outset and prepare them for better wireless
coverage over the structure's lifetime. By implementing the Wired
for Wireless solution during the construction phase, customers reduce
the installation and design costs of a wireless system, eliminate the
need for costly and time-consuming radio frequency (RF) site surveys,
and protect wireless performance inside the building from future
changes to the outdoor network.
Also in 2010, CommScope's Andrew
expanded its customer support for notable coverage and capacity
projects in the Asia-Pacific region, including continued work on
China's high speed railways, wiring up part of the forthcoming
'Taiyuan-Zhongwei-Yinchuan' line, a digital train radio system for a
metro network in Australia and a TETRA network for mission critical
security operations to a major casino in Macau's Cotai Strip.
“We are extremely proud to receive
this 'Vendor of the Year' award from Telecom Asia, a leading observer
of the telecommunications industry, whose readers are some of the
most experienced and knowledgeable in the industry,” said Navin
Vohra, VP-Sales, Andrew Solutions Asia Pacific. He further added,
“With mobile devices becoming as indispensable for business
operations as electricity and plumbing are for building operations,
we believe the broad range of coverage and capacity solutions from
CommScope's Andrew is the most sensible way to prepare a building
or campus for the advanced wireless requirements that people expect,
today and tomorrow.”
