City of Oxnard Deploys BridgeWave GigE Links to Clear Construction Hurdles
Santa Clara, CA – October 10, 2006 - BridgeWave Communications, Inc. announces that the City of Oxnard, California has installed four BridgeWave GE60 gigabit wireless bridges to ensure network continuity throughout city building reconstruction. BridgeWave point-to-point wireless links connect LANs between buildings at full-rate Gigabit Ethernet LAN speeds, with the security and reliability of fiber cabling.
“I needed a fiber alternative solution that could be quickly implemented, would support the rigid building construction plans and avoid any potential fiber cuts that might be caused by the heavy equipment moving around the area. Backhoes and bulldozers are threats to any terrestrial fiber connection and my team did not have the time or money to install alternative fiber routes,” stated Tara Willis, the City’s IT Systems Administrator. “The BridgeWave wireless network performs flawlessly and our employees enjoy the benefits of an ultra fast network throughout the City’s campus buildings.”
WirelessGuys, a BridgeWave Certified Value Added Reseller, installed the links for the City. “After completing a thorough site survey, our technicians were able to complete a gigabit wireless ring with all of the mounting construction and fiber terminations in less than three weeks,” reported Steve Williams, President of WirelessGuys. “This enabled the City planning team to stay on schedule so that the demolition and reconstruction could continue unimpeded.”
