Cogent Distribution introduces SAF’s long-range 60GHz solution

Press Release: Cogent Distribution introduces SAF’s long-range 60GHz solution. In the fast-paced world of wireless and communications, distributors must find new products that address market needs, get them to the market quickly, at the right price and the right time, and keep ahead of the game. Value-added distributor Cogent Distribution Ltd is doing just that as the company continues its 60GHz story with the introduction of SAF Tehnika’s FreeMile 60 long-range 60GHz microwave radios.

The FreeMile 60 is a robust and versatile 60GHz full outdoor unit designed for high capacity point-to-point and point-to-multipoint microwave networks, operating at a range of up to 6 km (3.5 miles). In multipoint mode, the FreeMile 60 Base Station can deliver multi-Gigabit speeds to up to 32 connections per sector at a fraction of the cost of deploying fibre. FreeMile 60 is therefore ideal for video surveillance networks requiring high-capacity upload bandwidth, as well as IoT communications, and last mile internet.

Quotes from Jim Kernahan and Nikolay Redin

Cogent Distribution’s Managing Director, Jim Kernahan said: “We have a long-standing relationship with market-leading manufacturer SAF Tehnika and value their product excellence and reliability, so we’re excited to place the FreeMile series as our primary long-range 60GHz product. It’s a highly competitive product when compared to more costly competitor solutions and we’re confident it will be a key product in our portfolio.”

SAF Tehnika’s Sales Director EMEA, Nikolay Redin added: “FreeMile is an affordable and reliable product for wireless internet service providers and enterprise markets, and serves their need for power, speed, range, and cost-efficient network deployment solutions, even in densely populated areas. We’re delighted to be working with Cogent Distribution to expand our distribution in the UK, which is as always backed up by our own extensive expertise in microwave engineering and world-class support.”

FreeMile highlights

FreeMile 60 radios operate in the 60GHz V-band, including Channels 5-6 (57-71 GHz), for interference-free signal, blazing-fast speeds up to 2.3 Gbps capacity with AES+GCMP encryption, beamforming of 90 degrees for greater coverage and wide, license-free channel availability for safe communication. A single FreeMile radio can act as a Base Station or Client, and the low cost of the SAF 60GHz product, combined with high subscriber density and quick installation, greatly decreases total cost of ownership. Two new and excellent additions to the antenna kits, the 45° and 90° Scanning Kits, showcase FreeMile’s enhanced versatility.
