The Congress is taking place at the Roosevelt Hotel, New Orleans from 8-10 June and Zinwave can be found on Booth Number 220. Zinwave is also an associate sponsor of the event.
Ian (pictured) has over 30 years’ experience in the wireless and international telecommunications industries. During his session he will explain the significance of supporting IP driven services such as LBS on an integrated DAS infrastructure, as well as their potential business value for stakeholders. According to industry research, the LBS market is predicted to be worth over $5b by 2019.
Apart from leading Zinwave through a successful acquisition by McWane, one of the largest privately held companies in the US and owners of a global group of wireless technology companies, Ian has held senior positions at a number of respected companies in the telecoms sector. These include LGC wireless (where he built the company to $100million in five years prior to its acquisition by ADC), interWAVE Communications and Nortel Networks.
Zinwave has recently launched UNItivity, a Unified Connectivity platform that integrates its unique wideband DAS technology with IP capabilities to deliver an end-to-end solution that supports any combination of wireless and IP services between 150MHz-2700MHz on a single hardware layer, regardless of protocol or modulation scheme.
Additionally, Unitivity is the only system to support multiple FDD and TDD LTE services simultaneously across any spectrum allocated globally. It is also the only system to potentially provide LBS functionality circa 300 m² without compromising the performance of its core DAS capabilities.
Comments Ian Sugarbroad, CEO of Zinwave; “UNItivity is a unified communications platform in the true sense of the word. It provides integrated support for wireless, high capacity Wi-Fi and LBS in an install once solution, offering significantly reduced CAPEX and OPEX compared to traditional DAS installations. Furthermore, other DAS vendors would require a Wi-Fi overlay or equivalent to offer LBS capabilities, resulting in highly complex and expensive infrastructures.”
