SC “SAF Tehnika” Releases a New SDH Product - CFQ-RG-IDU - the Latest Addition to SAF CFQ Product Line, at the exhibition GSM>3G AfricaCom 2007, Cape Town, South Africa, on November 21


On November 21, at the start of the exhibition GSM>3G AfricaCom 2007, Cape
Town, South Africa, SAF Tehnika will present a new SDH* product - CFQ-RG-IDU -
the latest addition to SAF CFQ product line. This is high capacity data
transmission equipment suitable for any user of STM-1** channel over the
microwave radio. 

The natural result of the telecom market development is a growing demand for
wireless data transmission systems of a higher capacity and spectral
effectiveness, to cater for broadband services as 3G video telephony and high
speed Internet access, etc. 

The new RG-IDU complements SAF Tehnika SDH (CFQ) product line - high capacity
equipment with data transmission speed up to 155 Mbps. 
RG-IDU provides SDH regenerator functionality at a better price point comparing
to the existing SD-IDU. 
Volume deliveries of RG-IDU are scheduled to start in December 2007. The new
product will be offered in the existing markets, as well as to all new
customers. 

“By expanding our SDH product family we are offering ever more choices to our
customers and we are planning to increase our presence in the microwave segment
of the telecommunications market. We are offering building blocks of next
generation mobile and fixed telecommunication networks”, states Mr. Normunds
Bergs, Chairman of the Board. 

During GSM>3G AfricaCom 2007, held in Cape Town, South Africa from November
21-22, SAF Tehnika will present the stand and exhibit the existing products as
well as the new SDH product - CFQ-RG-IDU. GSM>3G Africa is the premier
Pan-African communications event which comprises a high-level conference
programme and separate co-located networking exhibition which is the best place
to build new contacts, strengthen relations with the existing customers and,
beyond doubt, to get a picture of their own share in the respective industry,
as well as their competitors.
