SkyCross Announces Design Wins for Samsung WiMAX PC Cards
VIERA, Florida, March 1, 2007—SkyCross, a global wireless company providing antenna-centric RF solutions, today announced that it is supplying both the internal and the external WiMAX antennas for the Samsung SPH-H1100 and SPH-H100 PC cards. These cards operate on the WiBro network, which is a WiMAX-compliant standard for last mile broadband connectivity in South Korea. This announcement comes on the heels of the introduction of a WiMAX product line offered by SkyCross, which includes the first antennas designed and manufactured for this protocol.
The antennas in the Samsung data cards work together to provide better diversity gain, resulting in enhanced reception and broader coverage. SkyCross technology adapts to the space allotted for the antenna and other components in a device to maximize not only the performance of the antenna but also the efficiency of the overall RF system.
“SkyCross continues to exhibit technology leadership and strong customer support that allow leading manufacturers to introduce next-generation technologies quickly,” said Dr. Chris Morton, CEO of SkyCross. “We are pleased to be a part of this WiMAX initiative and look forward to providing solutions for future wireless broadband connectivity including 4G and beyond.”
