Motorola's Canopy(TM) Wireless Broadband group was awarded PART-15.ORG's Wireless Manufacturer of the Year Award during the WISPCON V conference, held earlier this month in suburban Chicago.
The award is bestowed for outstanding contributions to design, practice, techniques, or theory, as evidenced by publications, patents or equipment design in wireless control systems engineering, wireless sciences or technology. The Wireless Manufacturer of the Year Award is presented to a hardware or software manufacturer that has:
-- Demonstrated a commitment to the Wireless Internet Service Provider (WISP) community through the manufacturer's product lines; -- Delivered an exceptional technical support program; -- Enriched the WISP community through innovation of new technologies; -- Encouraged the WISP community for product enhancement; -- Maintained exceptional supply channels.
"It was just two years ago this month that Motorola's Canopy team announced the new product line at the very first WISPCON held in March 2002. It didn't take long for the wireless service providers to jump on this new and exciting technology," said Michael R. Anderson, chairman of PART-15.ORG. "Currently, Motorola's Canopy products are leading assets used by our industry in providing wireless broadband services to rural, suburban and inter-city areas."
Accepting the award for Motorola's Canopy Wireless Broadband group were Tony Kobrinetz, vice president and general manager, and Gary Schulz, chief engineer.
"We are flattered to be named Wireless Manufacturer of the Year by PART- 15.ORG since it is where our fixed wireless broadband roots were planted in 2002," said Schulz. "The Canopy platform has continued to grow in the independent service provider community, providing internet access solutions to people everywhere. This success has allowed us to extend our portfolio with additional Canopy solutions designed for traditional carriers and enterprise customers," said Schulz.
"We are in the midst of a wonderful evolution of wireless broadband. Technological advances, as well as an uptake in interest by the carrier and private network segments, are ensuring that the broadband of tomorrow will provide multiple service offerings, such as voice over Internet protocol, video, portability and eventually mobility," said Thomas Gruba, director of global marketing for Motorola's Canopy Wireless Broadband group.
