~ Narrow-Band Long-Term Evolution (NB-LTE)

Narrow-Band Long-Term Evolution (NB-LTE)

Nokia, Ericsson and Intel Working Together on Next-Generation Wireless Connectivity for Internet of Things Market Segment
Nokia, Ericsson and Intel Corporation support Narrow-Band Long-Term Evolution (NB-LTE) technology
as the ideal wireless connectivity solution for the growing Internet of Things (IoT) market segment

NB-LTE is an optimized variant of the widely deployed 4G LTE technology,
claimed to be well-suited for the IoT market segment because of its low implementation cost, ease of use and power efficiency.
Nokia plans to work closely with Ericsson and Intel to develop and
bring to market the products needed for the commercialization of NB-LTE timed with market demand.

Development to bring consumers benefits such as enhanced and improved connectivity of devices, and at lower cost.
Seen as another extension of Nokia's aim to improve people's lives through a programmable world
where billions of people, things, sensors and devices are connected.

Cellular networks cover 90 percent of the world's population.
Said to make sense to leverage this global footprint to support and drive IoT adoption
through the standardization of Narrow-Band LTE.
/ Stephan Litjens, vice president, Portfolio Strategy & Analytics, Nokia Networks./

Ericsson is driving the ecosystem to accelerate IoT growth and ensuring a global foundation
for a vast range of new IoT applications for consumers, industry and government.
/Thomas Norén, vice president and Head of Product Management, Business Unit Radio, Ericsson/

Intel intends to support commercial roll-out of the technology with a roadmap
for NB-LTE chipsets and product upgrades that will enable slim form factors.
The products will add to Intel's growing LTE portfolio.
Nokia and Ericsson will provide the required network upgrades to support an extension of existing LTE networks
with NB-LTE optimized for low power Machine-to-Machine communication.
/Stefan Wolff, vice president, Platform Engineering Group and general manager of the Multi-Comms Business Unit, Intel/

Contact from Michael Dunn at SnapRoute
From: mdunn@snaproute.com
To: cto@yourdragonxi.com
Hello CTO,

Thank you for reaching out, we appreciate your interest in SnapRoute.
Here are SnapRoute we are excited to partner with you to find a better way to run your network.
Whether you have one switch or multiple data centers, we can help.

A little about us,
we have open sourced the world’s first L2/L3 stack written from the ground up in Go »Go
Using FlexSwitch companies can gain control of the network, create operational efficiency
that makes life easier for the operator, all while leveraging the benefits of open source.

I would love to set-up a time to discuss your needs and
find out more how SnapRoute can help you.

Please send me your contact information and
we can schedule a time to talk in more detail.
If you have specific technical questions and
would prefer we can communicate via email.

Thanks again for your interest and I look forward to speaking with you soon.

Thanks,

Michael Dunn

Nokia strengthens public safety in San Diego with advanced communications network

San Diego's data network is providing backhaul capabilities for San Diego's P25 digital trunked radio system
to help strengthen the responsiveness of the city's emergency personnel.
The city is also expanding the network to support a variety of additional municipal agencies and services in the United States' 8th largest city.

The new network will provide high-speed, high-capacity data connections between San Diego's municipal facilities,
enabling enhanced voice and data communications, as well as video surveillance for first responders such as
police and fire departments and supporting other applications including SCADA (supervisory control and data acquisition).

Agreement highlights Nokia's growing focus on delivering mission-critical networks
for markets beyond traditional communications service providers.
»nokia-identified-as-no1-vendor-of-4g-public-safety-technology

Public safety in particular represents an attractive opportunity
as both national and regional governments seek to modernize their aging communications infrastructure for first responders,
an area where Nokia is particularly well positioned according to a recent study by Current Analysis.

Nokia is supplying San Diego with its,
7705 Service Aggregation Router,
7210 Service Access Switch,
7750 Service Routers and
9500 Microwave Packet Radio to manage
Ethernet, TDM and video services, and to support
the transition to an all-IP network.
The network is managed by Nokia's 5620 Service Aware Manager.

Nokia is also providing professional services such as network design and engineering,
frequency planning and licensing, tower construction, installation and commissioning and field maintenance.

The new IP/MPLS-based network will help support critical services for San Diego's 1.3 million residents
Municipal communications networks, particularly in large cities like San Diego,
are facing enormous demands as more bandwidth-intensive applications such as video are utilized for public safety and other municipal services

Navy looks for companies to build optical communications between aircraft and submarines
SAN DIEGO
U.S. Navy researchers surveying industry for companies to design and build
a full-duplex optical communications system
to enable manned and unmanned aircraft to communicate with submarines and unmanned underwater vehicles (UUVs).

Space and Naval Warfare Systems Command (SPAWAR) in San Diego issued a sources-sought notice
for the Modular Optical Communications (OCOMMS) Payloads project,
which seeks to design a communications system to provide optimal connectivity between submarines and aircraft

Optical communications links would be better than radio waves for this application
because optical offers sufficient attenuation to penetrate water to undersea systems at useful depths,
while RF systems require an above water antenna

Communications through such an air-water-interface (AWI) have the potential for very high data rates and
inherently low probability of intercept and low probability of detection (LPI/LPD).

Navy researchers have in mind an optical communications system that can communicate at speeds
no slower than 1 kilobit per second between a submersible and an aircraft
at ranges farther than 15 nautical miles through the air, and
to depths greater than 100 feet through the water.
