Strix Talks WiMax Mesh Future
October 3, 2005
Strix Systems of Calabasas, Calif., is one of the many companies making a name for itself in wireless mesh infrastructure equipment. It's a market that In-Stat says is going from $33.5 million last year to $974.3 million by 2009. In fact, the research firm calls it a "potentially disruptive technology" — they mean that in a good way. But can it get there using Wi-Fi alone? Maybe not. This is probably why Strix is already making noise about its future support for the high-speed, long-distance connections that will come with 802.16, also known as WiMax.

MARCONI ANNOUNCES ITS IMS STRATEGY TO ENABLE CONVERGED FIXED-MOBILE CORE NETWORKS
Marconi’s IMS capabilities, which are available for immediate deployment, include a powerful combination of best-in-class products from Marconi and its partners.
Marconi’s IMS architecture enables operators to rapidly deploy services that exploit network functions such as messaging, video, presence, location, and voice to create compelling revenue-generating applications.
“Marconi is future-proofing its products with its IMS architecture, enabling operators to increase their revenues through converged solutions," said Marconi Chief Technology and Information Officer Andy Evans. "This is an important move towards a universally agreed fixed-mobile converged architecture. We believe the Marconi realisation of this vision offers one of the lowest total cost of ownerships in the market.”
