College Station, Texas and Milpitas, California — April 30, 2024 — ISP Supplies, a global distributor of telecom equipment, and Tarana, creator of next-generation fixed wireless access (ngFWA), officially announced their partnership to expand the reach of Gigabit 1 (G1) — Tarana's ngFWA broadband platform — around the world.
COLLEGE STATION, Texas and MILPITAS, Calif., May 14, 2024 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- ISP Supplies, a global distributor of telecom equipment, and Tarana, creator of next-generation fixed wireless access (ngFWA), officially announced their partnership to expand the reach of Gigabit 1 (G1) — Tarana's ngFWA broadband platform — around the world.
Founded in 2010, ISP Supplies provides comprehensive solutions for both wired and wireless network needs — including design, sales, inventory, and support services — to ISPs, system integrators, and numerous vertical markets. The company offers worldwide shipping from its warehouses in the US and Canada.
ISP Supplies is dedicated to delivering technology that not only adds value for their customers, but also operates seamlessly. Their support team holds Tarana's products in high regard as they consistently perform as advertised, something Steve Discher, Owner/Founder at ISP Supplies, shared is "a rarity in the wireless industry today."
To achieve this, Tarana spent more than a decade of R&D rethinking fixed wireless access, which had historically fallen short in delivering fast, reliable broadband to end users. Long-battled industry challenges like physical obstructions (such as trees or buildings) and competing radio interference prevented legacy wireless technologies from truly closing the digital divide where fiber was too time-consuming or costly to deploy. ngFWA, however, has unprecedented performance in both non-line-of-sight (NLoS) conditions and heavily radio trafficked environments, making it an excellent tool for delivering broadband in challenging-to-serve locations.
As Steve Discher notes, "Tarana's technology is revolutionary, exceeding all expectations for multipoint wireless networks. G1 is a genuine rival to fiber deployment, a feat that previous wireless vendors only claimed but never achieved in terms of speed and reliability."
Since its launch in late 2021, Tarana G1 has been embraced by more than 200 operators in 23 countries. Initially operating in just CBRS and 5 GHz spectrums, G1 was also the first FCC-certified outdoor wireless product in the new unlicensed 6 GHz band. Additionally, Tarana's recently released "x2" mode of operation enables operators to deliver true gigabit speeds in 6 GHz, and still at a fraction of the cost or time to deploy fiber.
For these reasons, many ISP Supplies customers have eagerly anticipated the addition of Tarana products to the distributor's offerings. Now they will be able to leverage G1's breakthroughs to enhance their wireless networks, providing subscribers with significantly improved online experiences.
Brad Smith, General Manager at ISP Supplies, shared, "We are excited about our partnership with Tarana. We have a shared commitment to supporting operators and enabling them to compete with top-tier fiber providers on a global scale. We are confident that this collaboration will have a long-lasting impact on expanding access to high-bandwidth internet in underserved areas worldwide."
Mike Calabrese, VP of Worldwide Sales at Tarana, added, "We are very happy to add ISP Supplies to our network of channel partners. Their expertise and telecom experience spans many countries, and we can't wait to expand the reach of G1 to the communities served by their customer base."
