IMS Research ranked Alvarion number one supplier in European market for wireless infrastructure equipment used in video surveillance


Johannesburg, 16 Nov 2010

Alvarion, the world's leading provider of 4G networks in the broadband wireless access (BWA) market, today announced it was ranked the number one supplier of wireless infrastructure equipment used in video surveillance in Europe, by IMS Research, in its latest report: “The EMEA Market for Wireless Infrastructure Used in Video Surveillance” (published August 2010).

“The main advantage of wireless infrastructure over wired systems is the cost savings associated with not trenching and laying cable. This means wireless infrastructure is well suited to video surveillance systems where cameras are required across a large area that has no existing network,” comments Niall Jenkins, Senior Analyst at IMS Research. “The video surveillance market, and in particular IP video surveillance, is fast growing, and as wireless networking increases its penetration into this market, the opportunity for wireless infrastructure equipment vendors will continue to grow.”

Alvarion's video surveillance portfolio offers a carrier-class, robust, secure and reliable solution, which is field proven in municipalities, enterprises and industrial markets around the world. Alvarion's complete portfolio includes the market leading 4G WiMax 802.16e solution, BreezeMAX Extreme for the 4.9GHz and 5GHz frequency range, BreezeACCESS VL and BreezeNET B, which are optimised for wireless video surveillance applications.

“IMS Research's latest video surveillance ranking proves our innovation in bringing cost-effective wireless broadband solutions for security applications,” said Ofer Karp, president of the Wireless Business Division at Alvarion. “Video surveillance is a routine issue in security planning and there is a constant search for innovative and intelligent technologies to improve security, particularly over several remote sites. Our fixed and mobile solutions support a wide range of frequency bands and provide a very attractive business case for video surveillance deployments.”

Alvarion has established partnerships with leading suppliers of security and video surveillance solutions around the world. Through the wide network of partners, Alvarion can offer its customers end-to-end solutions providing a range of benefits, including quick and easy integration and interoperability with many cameras and applications.
