EBlink Supports Orange Niger's Network Expansion Program With Wireless Fronthaul System InstallationPARIS --(Business Wire)-- EBlink, the leading supplier of alternative solutions for base station sites in mobile communication networks, today announced that it recently installed its wireless fronthaul solution in Orange (News - Alert) Niger's network. The EBlink wireless fronthaul solution, which is available to mobile network operators (MNOs) worldwide, provides a connection between the base station and the network antenna through a wireless link. This modular system, which helps MNOs control both operating and capital costs, can be deployed in single-sector or multi-sector configurations. "This project with our global partner Orange showed once again how EBlink's wireless fronthaul solution, which can be designed and adapted to virtually any physical or environmental situation, cuts operator costs and reduces installation time," said EBlink CEO Alain Rolland. "In addition to a olution that helps get our network expansion up and running sooner than traditional coaxial cable systems, we wanted equipment that would prevent feeder loss and degradation in a hot and humid climate," said Orange Niger's CTIO Claude Arrigoni. "We are very pleased with the installation and performance of EBlink's wireless fronthaul solution." EBlink's solution allowed Orange Niger to avoid time-consuming and costly civil works, such as digging trenches and installing cable, to connect the base station and the network antenna.
