Kitted Solutions Leverage PCTEL High
Rejection GPS Antenna Technology and Optical Zonu Link
Hardware
PCTEL, Inc. (NASDAQ:PCTI), a leader in Performance Critical
Telecom solutions, announced today its turnkey GPS Fiber Transport
Solutions. These kitted solutions feature hardware from Optical
Zonu. The GPS Fiber Transport solutions deliver reliable GPS
signals from PCTEL’s high rejection GPS antennas to cellular base
stations located up to five (5) miles away. The increased fiber
transport range frees in-building and small cell networks from
design restraints. The improvement over coaxial cable
configurations translates into greater deployment flexibility and
decreased costs.
“Optical Zonu has selected PCTEL as a primary sales channel
partner,” said Gary Grimes, Optical Zonu’s Director of Sales, RF
Solutions. “We chose PCTEL because they already provide
carrier-approved antennas, they are established with many of our
customers as a source for the complete GPS Fiber Transport
installation kit, and they have proven to be responsive to customer
needs,” added Grimes.
“PCTEL’s easy-to-install fiber transport solutions leverage our
leadership in high-rejection GPS antenna technology and our
application engineering capabilities,” said Rishi Bharadwaj, Vice
President and General Manager of PCTEL's Connected Solutions.
“Optical Zonu is the leader in this field, and we are proud to
include their products as part of our solution,” added
Bharadwaj.
PCTEL’s GPS Fiber Transport Solutions are fully customizable for
the particular needs of public or private wireless networks. A
major wireless carrier has approved PCTEL’s first configuration of
a GPS Fiber Transport Solution kit. The key solution components
have been approved by multiple carriers. In addition to GPS
antennas and Optical Zonu hardware with an IP67-rated enclosure,
typical kits often include PCTEL’s RF surge protection, low loss RF
coax assemblies, and fiber optic cable assemblies and
splitters.
PCTEL will demonstrate its GPS Fiber Transport Solutions
at IWCE, booth #2156, March 23-24 in Las Vegas,
Nevada. For more information about PCTEL’s antennas and site
