10 February 2009: Herzliya, Israel – Comsys Communication & Signal Processing Ltd., leader in wireless baseband solutions, announced today that they will be demonstrating multimode data handover between Mobile WiMAX and cellular networks as well as a customer commercial handset running their Mobile WiMAX/EDGE solution at Mobile World Congress in Barcelona on 16 – 19 February 2009. The demonstrations will take place at the Comsys Mobile booth - #2B73, Hall 2 - and all industry stakeholders are invited.
The multimode data handover between Mobile WiMAX and GSM-EDGE networks demonstrates how service continuity is achieved over Comsys Mobile’s ComMAX™ CM1100 mobile WiMAX baseband processor in conjunction with any third-party legacy cellular baseband, or independently with the CM1125 WiMAX/EDGE processor, thus providing a multimode solution that enables the user to always be connected.
Comsys Mobile will also be showing commercial multimode devices supporting both mobile WiMAX and GSM-EDGE networks. Visitors will be able to experience live demonstration of the CM1125 running in the ECS EliteGroup’s S370 Personal Internet Communicator.
“Our booth at Mobile World Congress will be a must-see attraction for industry stakeholders in the WiMAX community,” commented Ehud Reshef, Director WiMAX Product Marketing at Comsys Mobile. “Visitors will be able to see a range of mobile WiMAX devices, supporting WiMAX and GSM/EDGE and incorporating Comsys Mobile’s unique baseband processors. Integrating them in customer devices highlights the maturity and uniqueness of our product offering, and demonstrates in an extremely tangible way the viability of WiMAX/EDGE service continuity.”
