We do, and have been commercially selling 802.16e (mobile-ready WiMAX) - called BreezeMAX 2300 and BreezeMAX 2500 all through this year.
In the licensed pmp space, especially for .16e systems, the answer of "average cost of AP and CPE" is not so simple. There are many types of "CPE" and there really is no "AP." You have complex base station infrastructures in these bands, with multiple levels of diversity. Maybe a very rough number for a fixed/nomadic type base station (360 degrees) might be around $40k. For fixed outdoor CPE, use the numbers you are used to today for quality CPE. For indoor self-install CPE SIM-card based, bought at a retail outlet or mailed by the operator), a rough number might be $250ish today driving lower. PCMCIA cards are around the corner and will be obviously much cheaper. Embedded devices, starting with laptops, are maybe less than a year away for early versions. Embedded consumer devices will come as early as late 2008 and will be produced in decent volumes by 2010. Base stations to support the mobile "personal broadband" devices will be require the addition of tons of things, like ASN gateways, AAA servers, etc. Patrick Alvarion -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Scottie Arnett Sent: Wednesday, August 22, 2007 11:08 AM To: 'WISPA General List' Subject: RE: [WISPA] Leasing 2.3 or 2.5 GHz Licensed Spectrum Who makes equipment for this band and what is the average cost of AP and CPE? -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Jon Langeler Sent: Wednesday, August 22, 2007 12:48 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED]; WISPA General List Subject: Re: [WISPA] Leasing 2.3 or 2.5 GHz Licensed Spectrum Why take it to the member list?
