Release Details
New Zealand's TeamTalk Selects Eclipse Radios from Harris Stratex Networks as Part of National Network Expansion
TeamTalk will deploy the Eclipse radios as part of its network expansion throughout New Zealand. Harris Stratex will also provide a complete range of consulting services and support to TeamTalk. TeamTalk is a majority shareholder of fiber-optic carrier CityLink, and wireless broadband operator Araneo—the latter will utilize TeamTalk’s expanded transmission network for its own linking needs.
The radios will provide access link capabilities, using Eclipse’s compact nodal configuration to enable operators to aggregate and concentrate traffic with no need for additional equipment. They provide significant reductions in the complexity of network deployments, such as those used by TeamTalk.
“Eclipse radios are perfect for our continued network expansion. We see growing customer demand for our value-add data products such as XLERATE™ and we expect the demands on the network to increase. Eclipse allows us to expand the network in line with this demand.” said David Ware, founder and CEO of TeamTalk. “Harris Stratex is providing us with the ideal products, technology and support we require to deliver the kinds of innovative mobile and data services customers expect from TeamTalk.”
“TeamTalk has led the development of advanced mobile radio network products throughout New Zealand and is recognised as one of the more innovative operators worldwide,” said Raj Kumar, vice president, Asia Pacific Sales and Services, Harris Stratex Networks. “TeamTalk delivers dependable and valuable services to their customers and we recognize the importance of being a reliable and responsive partner to them. We look forward to continuing our close and mutually beneficial relationship with them as they continue their expansion program nationwide.”
