Airspan connects Spanish WiMax networks

Airspan Networks reveals that the government of La Xunta, Spain, has selected Airspan equipment to create two networks, one to be used for the municipality to remotely connect offices throughout the region, while the second will connect several industrial zones and businesses to WiMax, says BBW Exchange.

Providing the backhaul solution to connect over 200 remote branch offices to the government IT network, Airspan, working with partner Colabora Ingeneiros, has enabled the municipality to extend government services such as social, economical and healthcare support to its citizens.

In addition, the government has extended a WiMax network through 32 industrial centres, enabling SOHOs and SMEs to access high-speed broadband Internet connections up to 6Mbps and Internet telephony.

Digital CCTV solutions and DV-IP servers from Dedicated Micros are enhancing Sun Microsystems' security of its offices as well as saving the company millions of dollars, says Source Security.

Steve Kruschke, Sun's manager of new security technologies and applications, says: "We wanted leading edge digital technology to leverage our IP network infrastructure, and we needed a matrix solution to control multiple video servers from centralised regional control rooms”.

At Sun, all employees use ultra-thin clients called Sun Rays, which have no local operating system to manage and administer. Sun Rays process only keyboard input and screen output, leaving all of the application processing and storage to the server.

Wesley Clover Solutions will deliver its trading-specific total VOIP solution for the hedge fund's world headquarters in Manhattan, states TMCnet.

The integrated solution provides a common digital interaction and coordination space for all 60 members of the firm's staff.

It permits them to utilise instant messaging, access the system from distant locations provided they have wired or wireless access to the Internet, and the ability to use telepresence, which makes the caller and receiver realistically believe that they are present in the actual office environment.
