Quick and easy to deploy, the Newbridge broadband wireless access solution enables operators to capture new markets and revenue immediately. Its multiservices platform supports the simultaneous delivery of data, Internet, voice and video, and its integrated network and service management permits one-platform management of both wireline and wireless resources. Value-added applications also provide a host of differentiated business and residential services.

Key components of the Newbridge broadband wireless solution are the 28110/28120 MainStreet NIUs (network interface units). NIUs provide the native termination interface to the customer's in-building network.

The broadband wireless product portfolio is a family of products that are designed to work together. NIUs are connected to multiservices base stations via wireless links, and the base stations are, in turn, connected to the backbone network through wired or point-to-point wireless links. The system provides a communications infrastructure with both narrowband WAN and broadband ATM points of attachment. The entire network is managed, end-to-end by the industry-leading MainStreetXpress
