RADWIN Connects Asia to Europe


TEL-AVIV, Israel, May 23/ -- RADWIN's WinLink(TM) 1000 Wireless Broadband Solutions Link Together Turkey's Bogazici University's European and Asian campuses across the Bosporus Strait

RADWIN (www.radwin.com), a leading provider of advanced wireless broadband solutions, today announced that Turkey's prestigious Bogazici University chose its WinLink(TM) 1000 systems to connect the University's Kandilli campus in the Asian side of Istanbul to the Bebek campus, located across the Bosporus strait in the European side of Istanbul. The WinLink(TM) 1000 wireless broadband systems provide voice and data - up to 4 E1s/T1s and Ethernet - with high capacity and long range (up to 80 Km) at a fraction of the cost of alternative solutions.

"Our goal was to link together two campuses, but the fact that they were separated by the Bosporus strait presented a huge challenge," said the IT staff of Bogazici University. "To overcome this obstacle we needed a technologically advanced, high performance yet affordable solution capable of successfully transmitting over water. After a thorough competitive evaluation, we chose RADWIN's point-to-point wireless systems."

DATAFON ILETISIM - a leading local turnkey system integrator and RADWIN's certified partner - deployed the WinLink(TM) 1000 in mere hours. Ibrahim Acar, Chairman of DATAFON ITLETISIM and TERRA DIS TICARET A.S, stated:
"WinLink(TM) 1000 are exceptionally reliable and robust, and uniquely capable of transmitting across water with no degradation in performance. All these qualities made the systems the ideal match for Bogazici University's needs."

The IT staff of Bogazici University concluded: "WinLink(TM) 1000 successfully rose to the challenge of transmitting over the Bosporus strait.

The links were deployed in record time, and today handle traffic for more than 1,000 computers. With these system in place, students and faculty can enjoy high-quality, high-speed broadband connectivity at a much lower cost than any other alternative. As we look to connect more university buildings, RADWIN will be our number one choice."
