interWAVE Launches 3G CDMA 2000 Product Line With Acquisition of
GBase Communications
September 11, 2002
interWAVE Communications, makers of compact cellular communications
systems, announced that it has signed an agreement to acquire substantially
all of the assets of a 3G CDMA 2000 company, GBase Communications
(GBase) of Walnut Creek, California for 4.5M of interWAVE shares.
GBase is a developer and manufacturer of CDMA 2000 Base Station
Systems (BSS) and Packet Data Serving Nodes (PDSNs) for 3G markets,
under a license from Qualcomm, Inc.
"We are extremely pleased with the acquisition of this CDMA 2000
product family with state of the art 1XRTT and EVDO capabilities
to add to our cellular product line. We have been seeing an increasing
momentum behind CDMA 2000 over the last few years, with a subscriber
growth rate of over 35% per year. The overall market potential of
the infrastructure market for CDMA 2000 is over $5B per year. The
CDMA 2000 high bandwidth performance of cellular data services of
over 2 Mbits per second, positions it as one of the pivotal technologies
over the next few years. We are pleased to welcome Kiomars Anvari,
founder and CEO of GBase and his team to interWAVE. Kiomars, with
his extensive background in cellular and his elite team of 3G experts,
is a strategic addition to interWAVE," said Priscilla Lu, Chairman
and Chief Executive Officer of interWAVE. "This acquisition will
accelerate interWAVE's position in the 3G CDMA 2000 market, and
opens up opportunities in North America, China, Latin America, Korea,
Japan and many other countries."
This product family of CDMA 2000 acquired from GBase, is backward
compatible with CDMA IS-95. It consists of a unique, patented IP
based architecture of CDMA 2000 Base Transceiver Stations combined
with Base Station Controller capabilities connected to the soft
switch and PDSN over IP. This IP based CDMA 2000 network solution
can be integrated to legacy wireless network through SS7 Signaling
Gateway (SG). The GBase solution is scalable and supports compact
BSSs for in-building enterprise and outdoor campus network markets.
It can also be configured to support a multi-carrier sectorized
BTS for public micro and macro networks.
