The acquisition reflects the growing importance of universal coverage for consumer, corporate and public safety cellular networks and consolidates Axell Wireless' position as one of the largest manufacturers of wireless coverage solutions globally. Today Axell Wireless is the market leader in public safety systems covering such standards as Tetra, Tetrapol, P25 and GSM/R and aims to replicate that position in related markets within three years.
Dekolink's digital repeater filter technology (sometimes referred to as SDR - Software Defined Radio) is the most advanced and flexible in the industry, allowing an almost infinite number of possibilities for filtering radio channels and other blocks of RF spectrum. Axell Wireless intends to embed this technology in all of its products covering solutions from FM and UHF through to LTE and WiMAX. Dekolink's SDR technology has been core to its success around the world and in particular the Americas, with approximately 30,000 units installed in a variety of applications.
